A job is recruiting me to relocate from Plano, TX to Birmingham.

Are there any Ags in the area that can give me some information? I have a Wife and a kiddo in Kindergarten, so i am looking for family friendly areas

thanks in advance

I'm from a ways north of Birmingham, currently living in Mobile...I'd suggest Gardendale to the north or Oak Mountain to the south. Definitely avoid most anything west of town like Fairfield or Bessemer.

Thanks, What about Vestavia Hills or Hoover?

VH is showing great schools, but I will research the others..

What about a local A&M club?

Just moved to Bham about 4 months ago and I live off of Hwy 280. Do not live off of 280, traffic is terrible. I would have moved to Hoover, Pelham, Vestavia area myself, if I could do it all over again. Shelby county taxes are less than Jefferson also, just a little FYI.

On a second note, anyone getting together for the PPV for the Idaho game?

Scooter, thanks for the info.

I am still researching this. any information is great for my decision.

Birmingham itself isnt much to brag about, but some of the 'burbs are nice places. As have been mentioned -- Hoover and Vestavia are good locations. I like the Homewood and Mountain Brook areas as well. I don't know much about them other than what I've seen from my experiences there.

Don't get sucked into the bama spin machine, go ahead and buy your orange and blue now and practice your War Eagles.

Get in contact with me if you ever want to come down to Auburn for a game. Would be a great experience for you and your family.
