Lived in Alabama most of my life, and honestly not sure I could live anywhere in this state except Birmingham(where I currently live), Huntsville, or the Florence area. There's just a close-mindedness towards opposing thoughts/views around most of this state that I just can't deal with. I worked briefly in a small, rural town about 30 minutes outside of Birmingham and witnessed it every day, and the oddest thing to me is a lot of them are proud of their close-mindedness.

I don't think that attitude is unique to Alabama though, or even the South. My relatives in rural Indiana and Ohio are the same way.

I've lived in Alabama all my life (currently in Montgomery). The only place in Alabama I would want to live in is Birmingham. I really just want to get out of the South as fast as possible.
