Probably told him he asked for no mustard after the fact.

Thanks for the replies, Yeah I am not really looking by where the Leprechauns live. more like a place I will be able to find other people my age and have stuff to do. I know the eastern shore is nice but I heard it is all young families and old people. Just wondering if anyone here had any good information to narrow my search!

Sorry I logged off. did not mean to offend you!

Moving to the Gulf Coast

Posted by GeauxBigRed on 4/23/15 at 10:25 am
Hey everyone, I am moving out to the Mobile-Pensacola area this summer for my job. I am not very familiar with the area so I was hoping someone here would know.

I am in my mid 20's and single. I am moving for regional work so I will be traveling a lot or working from home so I am not too worried about the daily commute.

I guess I am just looking for a good area for a 26 year old to be around other young professionals.

Is Pensacola good for young, single adults?

I have been told to rent a house in Midtown but I don't exactly know where the best places are in midtown. Would you look close to downtown? Trying to meet people and do stuff while I am down there.

Thanks!
I think if it plays out that way you would be looking at a 10 seed.

Even though seeding doesn't really matter. Just hope they don't have a play in game and look at matchups.
LSU could go to the South region. There really isn't a good location for LSU to land in the first weekend (from a distant perspective.)

If LSU gets the 10 seed in the south that would put them in Omaha in the same pod as Kansas or Iowa State depending on how the season plays out. A 8/9 seed sends you to Charlotte

Yup 26 year old single WASP. My fear is I get in an apartment complex where it is all families or a retirement home.

I have just heard so many different things about Mobile (good and bad). More or less looking for a place where I can go out by myself and have fun meeting new people during the weekend and have easy traveling during the week.

haha thanks everyone for the suggestions! :cheers:

I am looking into all of these places right now except I think I might avoid Prichard due to the fact I am not a big fan of being stabbed, but thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks for the responses. Yeah I'm single so I'm lookin for someplace to meet people that has a decent lady/night scene.

I have heard the Mobile has more of a southern Louisiana feel to it as far as culture so it appealed to me at first but I didn't know if living in the city would be worth it or not also didn't know how Pensacola would be for people that live there, if it becomes a ghost town when the tourist leave or what.

I work for the university so I will be doing a lot of traveling to do a wide range of stuff in the region. I will have to travel to Birmingham and Jackson on occasion so I figured Mobile might be the best as far as driving goes.

How safe is downtown Mobile? I know I need to get over there and check this stuff out but just trying to get a vague outline of the area. Thanks y'all for the responses so far. I will try to keep my coonassness down to respectable levels if I move into yalls area! Haha

Mobile Alabama/ Gulf Coast

Posted by GeauxBigRed on 2/11/15 at 4:37 pm
Hey guys, I figured I would post this here and maybe get some real input from people who have been.

For my job, they are requiring me to move to the Gulf Coast. This job requires a lot of travel so where I live is basically up to me. They said they wanted me somewhere between Biloxi and Pensacola.

Not I have never been to this area besides going to Pensacola for a family vacation when I was in middle school. I was wondering if anyone here could give me some suggestions on where would be a good spot for me.

I am a young professional so I would prefer to be around other young professionals and a nightlife. Traveling most of Mississippi, Alabama, and the panhandle of Florida with some south Georgia on occasion.

I know a lot of people have said Mobile but I was wondering where I should be looking for apartments, or if there is another area around there that would be worth looking into. Is Biloxi a decent town for young people?

My fear is I end up living in an apartment complex either full of families or old retired people.

Thanks in advance for the help!
