There is not a guide list with all possible journals, usually, you can select the best ones depending on the impact factor and SJR index. But these metrics should not be used to compared two journals. The Scimago Journal provides a good rank that can be of great assistance for
It depends where you draw the line: there are, obviously, excellent math/stats journals, and dreadful math/stats journals; the line where good ends and bad starts is always moving in a subjective manner.
Totally agreed with Pedro L. Ramos statement. Through Impact factor can identified famous/popular journal in any subject. But We cannot say if low impact factor journals are comes under bad journals category. Abdisalam Hassan Muse

The answer depends on the reputation of a journal. Many journals have a good reputation, but low impact factors because the impact factor of a journal is a very simplistic measure of complex factors. The predatory journals can be identified from https://beallslist.net/
A typical RG question for which there is no clear answer. For one, "good" will mean high quality of published works, for another it will be easy to publish the work, and for others it will be a long tradition of journal.
Open access journals have high impact factor that doesn't meant that they are good journals. So many factors are related with good and bad journals. In my opinion bad word is not appropriate. I think, good journals relate with publishers. i.e., who is publishing the journal. Like Elsevier, Taylor & Francis, Blackwell, Sage, Wiley etc..
I do not have much idea about Mathematics and Statistics. I am more on Journalism. For my paper published, I was just one of the co-authors of that collaborative research and the main researchers were really the experts on mathematics, statistics, chemistry, and physics.
Statistical Journals listed in UGC approved list in India may be considered as good journal. However, Statistical Journals with NAAS rating greater than 5 are also of good quality.
There are several indicators you can judge that journal is bad or good, e.g. cite score, impact factor... etc. Some of journal is out of scientific classification, hence, you find their publications very bad, unscientific.
I have a big doubt: open journals are good or not? In Portugal, the National Research Council does not sponsor "paid publications". I agree with the previous answers.
By The impact factor or journal impact factor of an academic journal is a scientometric index that reflects the yearly average number of citations that articles published in the last two years in a given journal received.
The answer for N. Bebiano's question is not always simple. It seems that all depends on the Journal's aims. For instance, the "New York Journal of Mathematics" (https://nyjm.albany.edu/nyjm.html) is open and is of good quality.
Another prestigious open journal is "Discrete Analysis" (https://discreteanalysisjournal.com/). Just take a look at its Editorial Board.
This question is very useful for the researchers, I think. The researchers need to publish their research output in a good quality journals. However, the researchers sometimes published their findings in a bad quality journals, this is unwanted. Therefore, we have to know the criteria for good quality journals. Now a days, it is very easy to identify good quality journals.
First of all, you have to choose any journals under Elsevier, Wiley, Springier, Tailor & Francis company journals.
Secondly, you may choose the journals under MDPI, PLOS, Frontiers, Hindawai etc. as an open access journals.
Thirdly, You may publish the article in a open access journals with DOI number under DOAJ.
Besides these, you may consider Impact factor, Cite score and SJR value and also consider QI, Q2, Q3 and Q4 journals.
You should publish in the journal whose articles you read yourself, or your colleagues recommend it. At least you are part of the circle of problems of this journal. Of course, this does not apply to frankly trash journals.
"Good quality" - this is very arbitrary. Now it is so, but in few years it will turn out that the journal is bad ...
You can use Incites journal citation reports of Web of Science (https://jcr.clarivate.com/JCRHomePageAction.action?). By using the "Select Categories" option, you can choose all journals in a specific category( statistics, mathematics, etc.). Then, you can see all performances of the journals in detail.
