Relocating to Demopolis, AL -pros and cons?

Poverty rate is 16.5%, which is higher than I expected. Crime rate is something to consider -Demopolis sits at 670.3 per 100K. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. What are your go-to spots? Thanks! The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Property taxes are high but you get good services. The city has invested a lot in new development.

Came here for retirement and stayed because I love the pace of life here. The housing market is honestly decent and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, I genuinely enjoy living here. Give it a chance - it might surprise you..

My experience has been mostly positive. it's improved dramatically in recent years. The only thing I'd watch out for is food scene. Other than that, Feel free to reach out with questions..
