We are in Huntsville, AL. It is one of the best kept secrets. It is very military oriented due to the orificenal being here (not sure if your wanting to get away from that or not) but coming from bigger city life 2 years ago, this slow pace is just great. The housing prices are incredible and you still get some of the big city benefits with Birmingham and Nashville both being 1 1/2 hours away and Atlanta only 3. Check it out.. Everyone said "ALABAMA" why on earth would you want to move there... Once here, it IS one of the best kept secrets around.... Good luck on your journey...
