Any agent that is located at least 5 jumps from the nearest lowsec system will work fine ...
Unless CCP changed something, an agent has a "mission radius" of about 4 jumps around his station ...

Use eve-agents in combination with ombeve's maps (search for ombeve on eve-search)
an agent gives out missions in his own constilation, so if there is no lowsec in that constilation you are fine.
i cant give you any agent as you have not stated with wich corp or even faction you want to work with. if you want to be near or in a missionhub or if you want to be more or less alone in the system.

1. Decide what corp you want to work for
2. Look up their lvl 4 agents in the corp info for the divisions you want (combat is security, surveillance, internal security etc)
3. Open star map and find one that you might like and see if any low-sec systems are within two jumps of their home system.
4. Bookmark it when you find one 
Eve agents is okay but is incomplete and won't show all good agents. I suspect a conspiracy.
But, yeah. These forums seriously need some indicator that the post has ended and the sig has started. |

You'll want to do a few things:
1. Either buy the EvE Strategic Maps or download the 2d EvE Maps by Ombey as a system reference while you search.
2. A good place to start searching for agents is the EvE Agent Finder site. Don't spend your time looking for the Veldspar Heavens system, or Chribba's Veldspar Factory though... they don't exist.
3. You want to maximize (Agent Quality + (100 - (100* Sec Level))). So, a -10 quality agent in 0.5 sec (40) is superior to a 20 quality agent in 0.9 sec (30).
4. If you're interested in combat missions primarily, consider the agent's mission type against what's found at EvE Geek. Most people target Command and Security agents, primarily because they largely give out kill missions, but also because the skills involved in increasing LP payouts by agent type happen to overlap. Intelligence and Internal Security are also somewhat popular. If you're willing to run or decline the occasional delivery mission, consider Administration or Legal division agents, as you'll likely end up in a much less crowded system.
5. You'll also want to verify that the agent won't send you into Low Sec as part of a kill mission, so check the agent's system against the map you downloaded earlier and make certain you can't get to a low sec system from the agent's system inside of 2 jumps.
6. The truly discerning mission-runner will also likely check for the story line agent nearest the L4 agent in question, as that's who you'll be sent to. If it's five jumps out, you'll be sent five jumps out every time you get a story line mission. If you're lucky enough to get one in the same station, all the better. You should also be curious about the corporation of the story line agent, as you will get large faction and corporation increases for each story line mission completed under them.
7. After you think you've found the agent you want to work for, hop in a frigate and run a quick L1 mission from a nearby agent in the same corporation so you can get a few easy LP. This will let you look at the Corporation's LP store. If you don't like what you see, it's better to find out now than after working your way up to L4 agents.
Summary: Ideally you want as high a quality agent as possible, which gives out a high percentage of kill missions in a 0.5 sec system that has no low sec system within 2 jumps of it. In a perfect world, your story line agent will reside in the same station as your L4 agent, and belong to the same corporation you're running missions for, or another corporation you want standings with. To make the hypothetical near impossible, the corporation your running for should have a wonderful LP store to boot.
I said "near impossible" quite deliberately, as these agents do exist. The ones that are well known are crowded beyond belief. The ones that aren't well known probably won't have any pilots aware of them advertising their presence here.

WOW!!! that was a great description. the only thing you missed was the quite crusual dilemma with nearness to a trade or mission hub.
if you are in or near, it is easier to sell loot and you get more for it, but you might get ninja salvagers (thou i think the probability is quite low even in big hubs) and there might be worse lag there.
a system with 14 people and a q5 agent might be better than a system with a q19 agent and 150+ people in it because of lag. but that is almoust impossible to calculate
near dodixie... dodixie, aunia or auvergne are good places... might be ones that are better but those systems are the sinc laison mission hub triangle

Good but I wouldnt ever want to run just 1 agent. I would only take a system with at least 2 lvl 4 agents in it.
If you think corp is different than a guild or clan you have some insecurity issues.

This depends a lot on the agent and how many accounts you have. If you have two accounts with good standings, then a single good quality agent is fine.

Theres a great lev 4 Gallente Navy agent in Dodixie, theres also a good one next door in Auvergne, I also pop over to adrallazoen and use the lev 4 Freedom extension agent in that system ,gives out 7k lp per big missions.

Dodixie and Auvergne are much too crowded. The agent in Adrallezoen is awesome (and the system is practically empty).

If you have one account like most people who are new enough to need this info - then you should get a system with 2+ agents.

If you dont care about lags, wardecers, and gankers...
Not as terrile though as motsu. Both more profiayable and less laggy.
Aphend would be even better, since CC have best empire LP shop, an system is good. not laggy. You can expect to be wardecet or gaked there though yet.
Sasoutikh. Not as good as aphend with prophit, but its very quiet. Though large corps there still can be wardeced.
