Underrated Small Town 4 rating By Anonymous ( Oct 25, 2020) I moved here from the west coast. I've been here for about 2 years. Everything is affordable. Some people are nice and some are grumpy. The crime isn't bad like it is in California. Here it's peaceful. So, I don't understand the F rating. That being said it can get boring.

Florence : My Favorite Fantasy 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 14, 2018) Put simply Alabama is my first home. This is where I grew up and the place where I became a man. As a young man I lives in various different areas in the State and Florence was one of my absolute favorites.

The reason I live Florence Alabama so much is probably because of the t ...Read More hings I could there. I visited the zoo at least 30 times I’m conceived. The historical sites here are great to go and learn from and to just generally be entertained from. This city also has multiple parks that are fun to go to. These parks are bigger and more extensive than your everyday park and they can be a lot of fun.

The food here is also great. It has your traditional southern comfort foods available. The selection of restaurants is nothing to scoff at and the fancy restaurants are especially good here. I lived in Florence so long that I really grew a bond with its happy people and I think its one of the better well-rounded placers to raise a family in. Read Less
