TOP 10 LIST OF THE BEST SMALL TOWNS IN ALABAMA 2021

[@jamesharding6183]

I moved from Washington state when I retired as a builder developer to Madison Alabama. I am so tired of ignorant people saying why would I retire in Alabama you are very wealthy you could live anywhere. I tell them I am a Christian conservative Man and look at the top schools in Madison Alabama, they are some 9f the best in the Country. People need to experience Alabama not just what they see on tv. Great video brother.

Never go into a store in small town Alabama if you're in a hurry. Everyone knows everyone so there are conversations at checkout. Guaranteed. Love it.

[@rustyaxelrod]

I’ve been in Enterprise for a little more than 10 years now. I like it a lot. 30min to Dothan if you need some “city time”, PC beach or Montgomery in a hour and a half. Lake Eufaula in less than 2 hours. Really, most of what I need is right here though. Clean, well kept and friendly. The military being here makes for a diverse population. The circle lay-out works ok but traffic is beginning to be a small problem, I’d like to see someone hired by the city who has training in traffic management, the timing of the signals could be improved.

Yeah you missed out not going to Muscle Shoals, really just the "Shoals" area in general. I was born in Alabama and I'll be here for good. All in all though, a good video.

Im from Chicago but my family is from Shorter and when I got out the military that’s where I settled at and I just loved the small town feel with less people. Now I wouldn’t recommend anyone move there unless you’re fine with driving 20-30min to any of the neighboring towns (Montgomery, Tallassee, Tuskegee, Auburn) for routine needs because there isn’t much there. I’m currently in PHENIX City which is in close proximity to Columbus GA and between the two you will find everything you need.

Atmore was on one of the worst towns towns to live in videos, unfortunately, mainly due to income.

I live in Alabama myself Leeds to be exact, what is forgotten to be mentioned about Montevallo is the crime, also sexual assaults at the University that they have tried so hard to sweep under the rug, not an allegation but a pure fact. So I request you put Montevello on the worst places to live in Alabama especially if you’re young and a university student and female!

Let's get even uglier with this! All southern whites are inbred racists. All inner-city blacks are crackhead thieves. All lower income mexicans are lazy drunks.

Born and lived in AL 67 years, moved from large city, live in So. AL now, not far from the coast. AL, its traditions, culture, lifestyle is most appealing to those that: are family oriented, conservative, love college football and NASCAR, like Southern cuisine, will say the pledge of allegiance to Old Glory, right hand over heart, like to hunt and fish, uphold the second amendment, dont appreciate anyone try to turn AL into a liberal state.

I liked your video, however, the closer you got to the #1 town the least you had to say about the area. Over all though, it was nice to hear the information you had collected about these small towns. I have lived in Alabama my whole life for 40 years, and my small town is Decatur. It's a great friendly city and it's located near Athens, Madison, and Huntsville. We are also known as the River City, thanks to the Beautiful Tennessee River that runs through or beside many small towns in Alabama. Great state full of great people and places, and ROLL TIDE good buddy!!!

Nice content… but I noticed you had no cities in lower Alabama on the list… there’s several on the gulf coast that should have been on there… Just for example…Saraland is nicer than most of the towns in your list … Very good content in your video.

I can't believe you actually picked my town! As a resident of Cullman, I agree this is a fantastic little town.
