https://census.gov/quickfacts is great for demographic data. It allows you to filter data as granularly or broadly as you want

Ibis world which you can get access to here on SF is pretty good and a great place to start. You can then combine with demographic / msa info from gov't sources like treasury, regional Feds and depts like labor and agriculture.
