http://angel.co/ could be a good place to start looking for them.

angellist.com has been getting lots of publicity lately.

Where are you located? There are often local angel groups, and regional business development organizations which can be helpful in finding angels.

If there is a local start-up scene, go to the meet-up events.

You have a bit of a conflict in your question thought. You ask how to find'local investors' and then as what the best websites are.

With the exception of angellist (which I haven't tried) I suspect that he best way to find local investors isn't online .

I live in Fairfax, Virginia. I've been searching online to find angel investors around my area but couldn't find much.
