      But Mobile seems still cooler than Houston TX for what i asked Alexa, it is summer now and in Houston there are heat advisory alerts daily. One question about Mobile, does it have always a nice fresh breeze for being on the bay? Like Fort Lauderdale, Florida? Or not?

    • @livinginmobile
      @livinginmobile  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      From everything I've heard, there are no issues with ride services. With regard to rent though, it would be difficult for you to find a property that will allow you to rent for less than six months. It's not impossible, but would be tough.
      As for pricing, rental prices are pretty high right now because of the lack of inventory. Most landlords are cashing in on their equity so there are fewer rental properties available at a reasonable monthly rate.

    Nice video. Too nice and almost misleading when viewed by a real local. Selling Mobile is a good thing. However, a train moving through a building is obviously not a real con unless you just happen to be there at the wrong time at which very few locals would even be there anyway. All of the footage you have in this video depicts clean and nice backdrops that would only be seen if carefully chosen with the correct camera angle. Showing places and the condition of such where people actually have available and access to would be great. Here are a few. Mobile Municipal Park, Chickasobo Park, the Causeway, Mobile Flea Market, Big Creek Lake (Access if any are public), Golf courses, Creighton, Bel Air Mall inside with people, Fairgrounds, with people, Mobile Municipal Auditorium with people, Dauphin Island Fishing Pier & beach access. I would suggest doing a consistent drive around in the business areas and typical neighborhoods consistent with the average family income in Mobile. And then one with the above average income, and another below the average A drive through to see what most people that travel most areas of the city and county are actually seeing daily is what people want. Mixing the cherry pic backgrounds with reality seems to be more appealing. Mobile is Mobile. It has real Pros and real Cons.

      Texas isn't no way better unless you live on the coast. But it's bad everywhere you go. It's not the 80s & 90s anymore in mobile.

      Yes it's cheaper most definitely, but I find myself missing Cali. We've been here for a little over a year.

      That is not true. There were some very inaccurate statistics that came out a few months ago, but if you’re comparing apples to apples, that is not true.

      Crime is at its lowest point than it has ever been in its history, property crime has fallen 50% in the last few years, property crime is now the same as Fairhope.
      Mobile is also getting at least 25,000 new jobs over the next 4 or so years

    I am living in Wisconsin, and I am getting tired of the very long winters. I love playing disc golf, and the company I work for (Trident Maritime Systems) has a location dowen there in Mobile, and II want to go somewhere I can have only about 2 serious months of winter (Dec. - January) and be able to enjoy being outdoors playing disc golf and not have to shovel snow anymore! Lol's I lived in Arkansas for 7 years so I know what the summers are like ( 90 dgrees = humid 1/2 the time ) I can retire in 2 years so would Mobile be a way of escape the winter blues???

      I’ve been to 49 states and over 1000 cities in the United States, and I can tell you, I think it is beautiful. It all depends on what you are looking for. Is it prettier than San Francisco Bay, no, but you can’t find Oak tree covered streets with beautiful homes from the 1800s like you can in downtown Mobile.
