I currently have an off-market listing in Plainfield, IL. 

Is there a forum, on Facebook or elsewhere, where I can learn about the conditions of the real estate market in Mississippi ( I realize that each county has its individual situation, to a degree) and ask questions? 

Please let me know if you want to meetup for Coffee and I can give you some pointers for off market properties in Santa Monica or the surrounding areas based on your requirements. 

I’m passionate about exploring opportunities in this niche market and am constantly seeking to expand my knowledge and network.

It may be common in your market.

The greater Phoenix, AZ, market is a fantastic location for real estate!

Pensacola is one of the cities where you can still find good investments around that price, and it's an area that is growing a lot.Feel free to reach out if you have questions about the market here in Florida. 

But as an aside, crime stats online, when you have never been to an area, aren't going to be very relevant.

Please let me know if I can bring any value to you about the markets I've referenced.

The real question is how many units are being built and what does net migration look like on top of demographics.I can answer the question for my market Milwaukee, because I have been tracking these metrics locally for the last 10 years or so.
