My son and I plan on buying our first investment property; either a duplex or triplex.

I am trying  to purchase a multifamily house , outside of the city where i live it wis about 150  miles from my location ,  how do i figure out the demographics of the area and also the medium income around the area where i am planning to purchase . do i need to look for any big stores/shopping malls or any govt offices around the area to see if the place would be ideal for purchasing the property for renting it .
