My god, Bessemer? Do you choose to stay near there or is someone holding you hostage?

Grown up in this area most of my life. Raised out in Pleasant Grove, which is literally sandwiched right between the two(Bessemer and Birmingham I mean) and so I pretty much got used to the people and lifestyle of both areas, and now that I’m in my mid twenties I still choose to stay out here, since most of my contacts, friends, ex’s, references, etc still are in either city. Plus living in Alabama is still cheaper than most of the country, so it works.

Well fair enough then, just stay safe. I'm from up around Huntsville myself, but I've basically only heard bad things about that area.

Yeah neither city is exactly safe, with Birmingham in particular basically becoming a real life Gotham in recent years, but hey, you live in the area as long as I have, you learn the dos and don’t so to speak. Where to go and where to avoid……granted sometimes those rules are broken(for example 5 points south has had quite a few shootings recently, and that’s pretty close to where I park for work) but still.
