Review of Montgomery, Alabama


A STATE CAPITAL????
Star Rating - 3/14/2007
What an embarrassment. It is such an ugly town. I am originally from Chicago and I felt like I was living in the south during the 1950s. All white children go to private schools and other races to the deplorable public schools. Community members even ask residents to supply paper, paper clips, pens, pencils, etc for the local public schools. There is a spirit of anger and oppression within the city. One cannot blame the people of other races to be anything else but anger. The only great thing about the city is Frazer Methodist Church that has a congregation that truely loves people from their hearts. It is a wonderful church that does lots of outreach.

I currently live in Chicago but I am moving to Montgomery and at the beginning of every school year I have to buy my kids enough schools supplies to cover the whole school year so that is nothing new. But when did toilet tissue become a part of school supplies, we have to supply that here and with the taxes being so high our children should get the best public education in the nation but they don't. I'd rather my kids have peace and quiet than to be worried if they're going to make it home, all of Chicago is not beautiful and right now we have the highest crime rate in the nation.
