Never listen to anyone reviewing an area that has LEFT that area. If you don't like it, you leave, right? There are thousands of people & families in PCola that LOVE this place and have called it home for years. The people are all amazing. If the traffic OR people are bad, it's because they are transplants, passing through or whatever but it's NOT the natives. Living here is paradise and it isn't because you live along Scenic Hwy or close to the beaches, it's just quite simply, paradise. I feel blessed to live here. PCola passed a law not long ago that restricts beggars from asking for money within a mile of any intersection so that much they do have under control. I challenge you to go to ANY city and find not one person flying signs asking for money. They're everywhere and to be honest with you, PCola is nothing compared to other areas that I've seen while traveling. The infrastructure here in this place is ah may zing. The drivers, yes, are horrible but it isn't the locals. It's the tourists that come to our area for the beaches from Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi or Tennessee. If you can't drive here and feel it's bad, then you must be from a small town in Kansas or Nebraska. Try Los Angeles on the 405 ... or better yet, head up 65 N or S from Alabama. You want to see white knuckled driving? Take that trip! If you're multi tasking behind the wheel here, you'll kill someone or be killed. You have to drive defensively. What a concept huh! For a person to have lived here, worked for the county, leave and then trash it? I would say that you have a bone to pick because PCola is amazing with it's dog parks, beaches, restaurants, night life, culture, people and events always taking place. Seriously. If you have to focus on the negative, then you should move to Atlanta, Nashville, or Santa Fe, NM. The one thing I am pleased with on these bad reviews is that those that leave tell people not to move here. The natives and locals love that, so thanks! We want this place all to ourselves :).
