The farther you go up 10th St/Oak Bowery up to Morris Ave, the nicer it gets. Anything around Northgate Dr, India Rd, Denson, etc. (elementary/middle school area) is safe and quiet. Blackhawk Dr area has some money.

This.

The north side of Opelika is fine (that's where a lot of that "old money" is, up Oak Bowery), though there's a trailerhood area out near the old Uniroyal plant.

We lived out off of India for a while and it's a nice, quiet place. Not too "uppity" like some parts around there. Got one brother that still lives around there and one that did, but recently moved out into the boonies

The south side is what you want to stay away from, particularly the square made by 280/Gateway, 51/Geneva/10th Street, and Pepperell Parkway (Opelika Rd). But once you go down past Gateway you start getting into Beauregard, which is just hickville.
