Vestavia Hills is underrated, change my mind

Anyone else feel this way? Born and raised here. You can expect to pay around $1,455 for rent here. With a population of 38,704, Vestavia Hills is a smaller city. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Am I overthinking this? TIA! Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 4 years ago from Phoenix and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Older homes are where the value is. We're paying /mo for a 4-bed in Lakewood. It's surprisingly good for what you get.

Jobs: The market is reasonable right now, especially in healthcare. If you're in engineering you might struggle.

People: Generally excellent. It took about 11 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: improving. Tons of options if you like farm-to-table.

Would recommend to anyone considering it..
