Not as bad as you think
Here is the scoop in Montgomery, AL. Obviously it has its racism problems. It was once the capitol of the confederacy and where MLK church is located. Show me a city that is over 200k people with no crime. Bad things happen everywhere. I have lived here for 32 years(im 32) and Ive seen it turn from nothing to do to alot to do. in 8 years a new outdoor mall has been built, baseball stadium, riverfront and massive hotels downtown. Downtown has almost 20 restuarants, 7 bars, a splash pad for kids. There is almost something eventful every weekend at the riverfront or downtown. Police patrol the areas and in 5 years we have gotten 5 brand new firetrucks. Every city in Alabama either closes down fire stations or fires people. We have an Insurance rating of 2 and the best is one. There is only 60 cities in the US with a rating of 2. Anyway I admit the schools are bad so either move to a surrounding city for descent schooling or private school. Also a childrens museum is opening downtown. Thanks
