Living in Mobile Alabama Hi! We live in Southern California and looking to sell our house here and relocate . We've been looking at Arizona, Florida, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, and Alabama as possible places. I've been looking at property in Alabama and for sure, it's much affordable than many places.
Rafael Plascencia Let me know if you want some more details or specific information. Just shoot me an email to JeffJonesagent@kw.com. I would be happy to help you explore your options.
I lived with friends in Daphne while I was there. I worked on the clean up crew after Sally hit. Beautiful place. My only issue with Mobile was that tunnel. Scared the hell out of me, driving through it.
I’m from Ocala FL. Man I was in Mobile Alabama for Labor Day weekend. We spent 4 day. We went to the USS ALABAMA to a car and truck show call Battle in Bama. My wife and I love it. People are so friendly and helpful omg. It’s a beautiful place. Thank you for sharing your videos🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I moved to Mobile 5 yrs ago because of a job. When I got there, I cried...it was everything I thought I hated; heat, alligators, seafood, huge ships....BUT it turned out to be the absolute BEST place I have ever lived. The people are incredible, the weather is beautiful, it was affordable...I moved away 6 months ago with another job....biggest mistake! I am missing Mobile something crazy...
I tried to move there because of my husband and I cried every night too, my husband thought I was gonna die of depression, so sadly we left after 2 weeks, Then I realized it was because we went in August. Mobile must be amazing before July and after August. Beautiful video :)
Thank you, please help me. I am planning to move to Alabama. My priority is climate. How much I searched to get information, I couldn't get a specific answer about high-risk cities and counties for flash floods. Please, help me with that.
Actually, at this exact moment, we are experiencing more rain than we have had in a very long time in Mobile County. It has been crazy. Mobile in general is one of the rainiest cities in the entire country. But, it really depends on where you live. If you live in the Midtown area, often they experience more flash flooding and you hear stories of people's cars getting flooded and streets getting flooded. However, that is pretty rare with most places in Mobile. It's definitely not common for streets to be flooded. Just know this, Mobile has a lot of rain, you just have to keep an umbrella in your car at all times!
My wife and I recently bought a home in Mobile. She has lived in the area her whole life. We love it. The cost of living is excellent. Overall it is a great place to live that has so many things to offer (stores, restaurants, activities, 2 beaches closeby , etc) while also not being an overwhelmingly large city.
Jeff, this is a super video. In a lot of city’s that I have visited all the realtors have a channel on public TV that shows houses. But the best part of the video is that they give more about things to do within 50 to 100 miles of the city. Restaurants, stores, school, churches, ball fields for the kids even dealerships. It is just a big advertising channel. That is usually the first channel I go to when I travel. Housing is important but once people move to a new area entertainment is also important. Keep Momma and the kids happy is a good idea. Again I love the video. You have done a good job.
Grew up in suburban Minneapolis, lived in Mobile from 2016 to 2020. Bought a brand new townhouse in Spanish Fort in 2018 and I have been renting it out to come back to part of the year. Ive lived in Vegas and DC as well, im back in Minneapolis and I miss Mobile so much. I was single, in my late 20's, made a decent living and Mobile was the most fun I had in any of the places I have lived. The gulf is truly one of America's hidden gems and I hope it doesnt get too crowded over the next 20 years. There is something to be said about a greater metro area of 420K, its just the right size. Something I'd like to point out to the single people wondering about the dating scene here, if you put your best foot forward and put in some effort, it blows all the major cities away. So many cute, single girls that were so easy to talk to and very down to earth. People actually live life in the southeast, they arent parked on instagram or taking pictures for instagram like they are in any of Americas major metro areas. The food, the people, the women, the landscape and the way of life is so wholesome here and the overall vibe of the Gulf Coast is absolutely unbeatable.
Awesome, glad you are finding it helpful. Please don't hesitate to shoot me an email with any questions you may have, I'll be happy to help. JeffJonesAgent@kw.com
Who Dat Say Gon Beat Them Saints I’m out in West Mobile, off of cottage Hill, and we are good. I lost one small tree, and only lost power for three hours.
After spending much of my life in and around Mobile (mo-BEAL) I recently had to move to Tuscaloosa to care for my ailing mother. Thanks a lot for making me realize how much I miss Mobile. You're right ... its a great city.
Came down from Missouri to go to Gulf Shores and had to drive through Mobile back on August 2nd, the rain and wind was crazy and it was hard to see, I thought a hurricane was happening, LOL! Interstate 10 was also pretty slow. The drive back a few days later was a lot better, beautiful and sunny, and even checked out the USS Alabama and drove through downtown. Mobile is a great city, and would definitely come back here one day! Great video man!
I’ve lived here for almost 7 years and love it. I used to live in the Pacific Northwest, and the cost of living here is much better than it was up there. What a 400,000 dollar house up there goes for about 150,000-180,000. I was blown away how inexpensive homes are here.
@@Oklasbrah You are correct. Just like in NYC, it is expensive mainly because you can walk out of your apartment and have everything you could dream within a mile of walking. That is certainly not the case in Mobile, but NYC is not for everyone. Neither is California. I like Mobile mainly because it is where my family is and because of the seafood. Gotta love those fried crab claws!
I just visit mobile Alabama and I stay at a friend house she says mobile Alabama is easy to get rich because she knows few mechanics and they are rich without spending their money the people who work there only work Monday to Friday then Sat and Sunday stay home with family I might move to mobile to start my mechanic shop then Sat and Sunday I can drive to texas for vacation
I've lived in Grand Bay for almost 40 years. For those that don't know Grand Bay is in south west Mobile county. Before that I lived on Dauphin Island Parkway in the 70's. Mobile definitely has its pros and cons, but I couldn't imagine living anywhere else.
Hey, Jeff, great vids. Realtor up here in Toronto dreaming of snowbirding somewhere in the future :) I think Mobile and AL in general could get more retirees in the future. So many positives that most people don't know about. I like Mobile's "Goldilocks" size too, not too big, not too small, just right. Closest I've been is Panama City, FL. Most Canadians never think of the panhandle, let alone Alabama. Too bad. Most northerners only think of FL, often because their friends or family are there. But if those considerations don't play into our decision when the time comes, I'd definitely give Mobile a look. Northern Gulf beaches, including Alabama's, gotta be the nicest in the US. Have a great year!
Thanks Steve! I've been to Toronto before, with my former career! Actually, I spent 25 days straight in CA about 10 year ago. Why no ice in drinks, lol. Anyway, thanks for the comment. Yes, I agree, many more will be headed this direction.
@@livinginmobile Ha! I never though about the ice thing. Just one of our quirks I guess. I gotta have ice in my drink so maybe I'm more of a Southerner than I thought. Way way back had ancestors who settled in South Carolina backwoods before eventually coming to Canada. So who knows!
ah, yeah, there are several places. Check out Dog River as a start. That is on my list for sure. Hit me up and we can set a time to chat about coming down. I would love to get to know you and see if I can help you find what you need. JeffJonesAgent@kw.com
I’m in the process of moving there right now. I’ve been doing my research for a while. I was leaning towards fort meyers Florida until I visited Mobile recently. I’m in NJ and looking at a very affordable rental there. My job has 3 locations I can transfer to in and around Mobile.
It really depends on what area you want to live in, and, rentals are not as available now as they used to be because many landlords are selling the property because the property value has increased so much over the last year, but, you could get a three bedroom two bath home in the $1000 - $1200 range. It’s crazy!
@@livinginmobile I was looking at a 2 br for around 860. Insane! For 1200 almost anywhere in NJ, you get anything from a studio to a tiny 1 br apt if you’re lucky. If the rent is any lower, you’re probably living with cockroaches, hookers and drug dealers in the building. And also have to worry about your car and where you parked it . Just don’t leave any loose change in it either.
@@susanr1903 it’s going to be difficult to find a house under $900 in this market. The cost of rental houses have really increased over the last few months and the amount of inventory has plummeted because most sellers are getting their equity out because of the increase in housing prices.
@@livinginmobile keep me up on it if you we want to move ..maybe how hard is to buy ..we seen some that nice under 100,000 that look good ..we hope ..our rent here going crazy
Just watched your video, very helpful info and much appreciated you took the time to do this. My wife and I are going to sell our place in the next 4 months and head that way. I will become a real estate agent when we move down there.
Thanks so much for writing. Let me know if I can give you any insight about the market or tips on passing the Alabama real estate exam. Keep me posted!
I attended both springhill and the university of mobile. The university of mobile is a wonderful school that is just big enough to have what you might want to study in but just small enough to have a personal touch in your needs and for it to feel like a home. Dauphin Island is my favorite place on earth and yes I've taken the ferry before myself. Speaking of mardi gras, my ex wife is in a mystic society there but I won't tell which one. I'm originally from Detroit Michigan and when my wx wide who is from mobile introduced me to mobile back in 1992 I fell in love with the place.
I lived overseas most of my life, but my husband is from the south so we moved to west mobile and I am having a hard time. I can't walk anywhere there are no sidewalks. I've gained 15 pounds because I have to drive everywhere its not like that in Europe. Your video has helped me because I have been crying to my hubby wanting to move. I am a vegetarian so the restaurants means nothing to me. I like to get out and run, walk exercise, theater and art... you mentioned the beach. Is it close, can I do my morning runs on the beach? I live off of Cody Road and Cottage Hill...
So great to hear from you. I know that Mobile can be a culture shock compared to living overseas. But, with that said, there are certainly a lot of bonuses. The southern hospitality, and the food is great, but because of being a vegetarian, you will definitely have some limitations. As for the beach, I have another video about Dauphin Island, which is only about 35 minutes from where you live. If you really wanted to walk on the beach, you could be there super fast as an option. Also, cottage Hill Park or metal of honor park is also a great place to walk as well. But, with Publix coming to McFarland and College Hill, that would likely open up more opportunities for neighborhood walking as I can only imagine they will be putting in sidewalks.
@@livinginmobile Thank you so much! I just returned from Metal of Honor Park and I watched your dauphin island video, going there tomorrow. Maybe I can contact you to sell my home in West Mobile and find one in a gated area downtown... where I can walk everywhere. Again thank you.
@@ciao98496 So glad you got to go to the park. It’s beautiful on the walking trails. Also, you will love the island. I would love to chat with you about helping you find a new place, and anything I can do to help in the process, it would be my pleasure. Feel free to give me a call or shoot me a text message anytime. 251-545-8445
If you live at Cody & Cottage Hill then cottage hill park is walking distance from your location. It has great walking and bike paths and on most sunny days plenty of people are there walking. The bike path is super cool it has a section that goes through the trees. I hope this helps
Hey Michael, it really depends. In a residential area, commercial area, on a dirt road in the country, in a suburban area on a paved road, so many different variables. I just looked up a few examples. In the suburbs I found a 10 acre parcel for 300K, closer in town, it was about double that. On the outskirts of town I found a 9 acre parcel for 90K. It’s all over the map.
Can't agree with your first con. South Alabama has NCAA D1 athletics. Brand new football stadium, basketball program on the rise, and a baseball program that competes for NCAA tournament contention nearly every year.
I am planning on retirement next year. I need warmer climate verses living in Wisconsin. I would like more info regarding retirement communities there.
I don’t think it’s fair to compare or expect Mobile to be as diverse as two of the largest cities in the United States, but I think our city is very diverse considering the size. As for the crime rate, I think it will vary and be different depending on the area of town and the different factors that are involved. I wish I had a better answer for you, but there are so many variables when looking at the crime rate and diversity of our city.
@@livinginmobile I see, but when I say diverse, I mean would I be able to go to some store and buy rice? And am not talking about an Asian store, just your typical big box store like a walmart.
Does Mobile have safe walking, biking trails? I’m from the Atlanta area and, though things are rarely safe here anymore, we do have lots of parks and paved walking trails to stay active.
Mobile does not have a huge amount of parks relative to the size of the overall area, but I think if you got connected with a local biking community, you would be surprised what is available. I don’t have a lot of first-hand experience with bike trails, but I do know, like I mentioned in my “old Shell Road tour” video, you can stay on the sidewalk from Broad Street all the way to Cody Rd. out in West Mobile. Mobile is becoming more walkable by the day.
Nice video sir I'll visit Mobile one day and Pensacola. I been to Pensacola to visit one of family members but didn't had the time to visit Mobile. And Mobile is closer to New Orleans than any major US cities.
I've lived hear in Mobile all my life. I love it hear. Wintertime is usually very nice, the beaches are nice, traffic is not too bad, and there is good food. My only two issues with the town are the humidity and the lack of good transportation (buses and rail service to neighboring cities). But, either way, I still love it!
I have sister an brothers who live out there I’m from Los Angeles an you know how expensive it is out here but, when you said it’s a perfect place to raise a family that stuck with me and I’m highly recommending on moving there very so also this video was Ahhhhmazin !! I guess I’ll go buy my dream home 🏡
Hi Paul, yes, it’s so expensive in California. Shoot me a message if I can help you with anything. I’ll be happy to answer any questions you have. Jeffjonesagent@kw.com
No cheesy slogans, not oversaturated with real estate ads, just plain straight pros, cons, and local attractions for locals to enjoy that aren't overwhelmed with tourists. Now this makes Mobile look attractive.
I am interviewing for jobs in Mobile. I am from Louisiana. LSU also has a major rivalry with Alabama. I will never wear an Alabama tshirt and I will walk around in my LSU tshirts throughout football season!!! Go tigers!
Awesome, yes, there is definitely a rivalry between LSU and Alabama as well. Especially with the ties of Nick Saban. Shoot me an email if I can help you with house shopping. It’s a crazy market out there! JeffJonesagent@kw.com
@@livinginmobile It's all about Nick Saban. It's like a bad breakup and we still hold a grudge! And they beat us a lot so that only pours salt in the wound.
Potential expat from Denmark here. Is it a place a single 29yo guy would want to live for a couple of years? How safe is the city and are there areas I should avoid? Are there other places to live within 30 minutes commute from the harbour, that are better? What's your input to cost of living? Is my salary of 83k (after pension contributions) enough to get me by, or decent for the area?
Absolutely! You would love it here, and that salary should be more than enough. Shoot me an email and we can talk more about details. JeffJonesagent@kw.com
I might have the perfect place for you, an Agent just messaged me about a place downtown. Call me or email me and we can talk about it. JeffJonesagent@kw.com
Ive been all over the world and Mobile is the best place.... gulf shores, restaurants, cost of living, southern hospitality, weather (minus hurricanes). When you are sitting on the beach with almost no-one there, be grateful. In Europe, its ass to ass, people selling watches, tractors on the beach selling stuff. First thing im doing when my kids are grown, is move back. I've been in Germany for 12 years and boy i can't wait to get the hell out of here
FROM THERE MY LIFE LONG AND I'M 78 NOW. THANK GOD HE GOT US OUT OF THAT HELL HOLE AND MOVED US TO BEAUTIFUL MONTANA 22 YEARS AGO. MOBILE USED TO BE SORT OF A NICE PLACE TO LIVE WHEN I WAS GROWING UP, BUT BOY DID THAT CHANGE IN A FEW YEARS. ALSO, WE KNOW SEVERAL OTHER FAMILIES WHO GOT OUT OF THERE AND ARE LIVING IN DIFFERENT STATES. IF YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT MOVING OUT OF THERE........PLEASE DON'T PUT IT OFF ANY LONGER. JUST ASK THE LORD "WHERE WOULD YOU LIKE FOR ME AND MY FAMILY TO LIVE?" AND HE'LL GUIDE YOU TO A MORE PEACEFUL PLACE. FROM SATSUMA, AL. (12 MILES NORTH OF MOBILE) AND THANK THE LORD EVERY DAY FOR MAKING A WAY FOR US TO GET OUT OF THERE! NOW LIVING IN BEAUTIFUL FLATHEAD VALLEY RIGHT OUTSIDE OF GLACIER NATIONAL PARK IN KALISPELL, MT. LOVE IT AND HAVE NEVER LOOKED BACK! THANK YOU LORD! 11/21/20
Michael McClure I’ll definitely put that on the list. There are some great neighborhoods to explore. Keep checking back, I hope to have that over the next few weeks.
@@shalindahenry9554 yes thats my opinion. It was much nicer as a simple small town. As far as things to do..there is far less to here now as opposed to the freedom that once was from here to the beach. Places like "the hangout",,,,which was always "the hangout" before commercializing ruined it. The beach.. Used to be all beach..now its just another city..cant even see the beach. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.......but beauty isnt only what you see with your eyes.its far deeper.most people who were born here in the times before fredric...wish all the people who have moved here and ruined it would just go back to where the hell they came from.
Curious about where is the best area to live with kids? We live in Breaux Bridge, La. ( I'm a little skeptical about the food in Alabama😂). We are a strong cajun catholic family that likes get togethers, going to mass, football ( Geaux 🐅) , festivals ( there is one every week until almost Christmas) , hunting, fishing, etc. What are the best catholic schools to send our boys too and are there church parishes that are part of the community?
Holly!!! Thanks for the comment! If you will send me an email at JeffJonesAgent@kw.com I will send over a few details on school, churches and a few other things that I think would help with what you are looking for. Mobile has several things I think you would really like in this dept. I look forward to hearing from you! - Jeff Jones
I was born in Mobile and moved into the Midwest in 2002. so when I am able to move on my own. Mobile would be my first city in my mind. besides, do they shoot movies or make move in Mobile or around the Alabama state if you know so?
With regard to making movies, there have been several movies made in Mobile and if my understanding is correct, there have been some tax advantages for movie studios in doing so, but as of late, obviously, everything has shut down. Hopefully there will be some projects started in the very near future.
It's sure is and I wanted to go to the USA I've been watching hart of Dixie and I have been fascinated with Alabama!! Australia is in spring right now where I live in Brisbane it's very hot and doesn't snow, my state of Queensland only has a few cases of covid 19 which is good for us, any way I hope to see more of your videos
If you’re talking about pricing with the airport, I think it has a lot to do with the size of the city. Pretty much every where you go, if leaving Mobile, it has to go through Atlanta or Charlotte or Dallas. With all the new jobs coming to the area, and the city growing so much, and with the potential of the airport moving down to the Brookley complex, I think the airline pricing will start to go down accordingly.
I would definitely say yes even if just for the cost of living. So many positives because of that. Also, be sure and look up the town of Fairhope. It has been on the retirement radar for years.
Hi Jeff, loved your video. I am Canadian and was wondering if a working visa is required to obtain a real estate license so you are basically self employed?
Oh man I lived off of spring Hill during Mardi gras people Park in your parking spot in your apartment complex so you end up getting stuck on the side of the street not too good
Hey Shelisa, great to hear from you. The job market is really strong, we have a thriving economy in Mobile. As for rent prices, it really just depends on where you want to live. I've seen four bedrooms as low as $1100, and it just goes up from there.
Yes, there is. It's right off of the interstate where I-65 and !-10 connect. It is is a great shopping area. Movie theater, restaurants, etc... Great location!
bruh you asked the most right questions and got none response for either question I'm from daulphin island but moved after my father passed I'm in mississippi but you had asked about jobs it really depends on what you're looking for and as the covid 19 pandemic goes I still have family scattered out there and neither one has gotten it but that doesn't mean they can let their guard down but like I said it depends on what you're looking for and your life style of living
I know this is an old post but it's pretty bad. Drugs are a big problem here and occasionally these addicts may break into your home or rob you. Christmas eve 2020 I walked outside to be met by a man with an AR-15 that robbed me.

Yep, I love them both as well!
I enjoyed your personality and energy! Thank you for the video!
Thank you so much!

Lived in Fairhope for a decade now, Mobile is a great city and I can’t wait for the resurge of population once they move the airport.
I agree, and I believe that will happen once the airport moves. It will be a game changer for that area!
Downtown Fairhope is so quaint and lovely. I was there last year when they did the Christmas lighting.
What is going to happen with airport when?
Great job from one Mobilian to another. Great job!
Thank you! I Love getting to make these videos!
My wife and I recently bought a home in Mobile. She has lived in the area her whole life. We love it. The cost of living is excellent. Overall it is a great place to live that has so many things to offer (stores, restaurants, activities, 2 beaches closeby , etc) while also not being an overwhelmingly large city.
Yes, I’ve lived here my whole life as well. It has a small town vibe for a city of its size.
You’re a great ambassador for Mobile!
Thank you! I am honored to get to do this!
Jeff, this is a super video. In a lot of city’s that I have visited all the realtors have a channel on public TV that shows houses. But the best part of the video is that they give more about things to do within 50 to 100 miles of the city. Restaurants, stores, school, churches, ball fields for the kids even dealerships. It is just a big advertising channel. That is usually the first channel I go to when I travel. Housing is important but once people move to a new area entertainment is also important. Keep Momma and the kids happy is a good idea.
Again I love the video. You have done a good job.
Thanks Robbye! This video was fun. Hopefully one day: Living in Mobile… Coming to a public access channel near you!
i feel like the only bad thing ab mobile is the constant rain
yes, rains a lot for sure!!!
I´ll move to Mobile into the next few months and your videos are really helpful!!
That’s great news! Please, feel free to reach out to me if I can help you or answer any questions you have. Keep me posted!
As a Mobile native, what the hell is snow?
Ha. it’s rare!

I live between Dauphin Island and Mobile.It’s probably the best city that I know I’m on vacation in Tuscaloosa right now

Sorry, just doing my job, LOL. Yes, most of my memories are in Mobile and I know it would be difficult to leave one day.
Came down from Missouri to go to Gulf Shores and had to drive through Mobile back on August 2nd, the rain and wind was crazy and it was hard to see, I thought a hurricane was happening, LOL! Interstate 10 was also pretty slow. The drive back a few days later was a lot better, beautiful and sunny, and even checked out the USS Alabama and drove through downtown. Mobile is a great city, and would definitely come back here one day! Great video man!
Thank you! So glad you got to enjoy our little city. The weather is perfect now! I love Mobile in the fall!
I’ve lived here for almost 7 years and love it. I used to live in the Pacific Northwest, and the cost of living here is much better than it was up there. What a 400,000 dollar house up there goes for about 150,000-180,000. I was blown away how inexpensive homes are here.
Yes, It is crazy cheap compared to other parts of the country! I see you are a guitar player? I am a former professional drummer. Small world.
It’s cheap to live for a reason.
@@Oklasbrah You are correct. Just like in NYC, it is expensive mainly because you can walk out of your apartment and have everything you could dream within a mile of walking. That is certainly not the case in Mobile, but NYC is not for everyone. Neither is California. I like Mobile mainly because it is where my family is and because of the seafood. Gotta love those fried crab claws!
Texas housing costs are the same as the northwest of the United states
@@Oklasbrah move to California if you don’t like it
I’m just across Mobile Bay in Baldwin county. Taking the real estate course now, looking forward to working in this industry!
Hey Patrick! Great to hear from you. You will LOVE it. Let me know if you have any questions.
Living in Mobile Alabama I sure will. Thanks 😊
I just visit mobile Alabama and I stay at a friend house she says mobile Alabama is easy to get rich because she knows few mechanics and they are rich without spending their money the people who work there only work Monday to Friday then Sat and Sunday stay home with family I might move to mobile to start my mechanic shop then Sat and Sunday I can drive to texas for vacation
Sounds like a good idea to me! Come on!
@@livinginmobile I’m still thinking about it my dad say it an good idea he’ll help to start it but i need trainign
Decided that i would buy some land after landing in Dog River to do maintenance on my sailboat ⛵️. Love this town.!
That's awesome Adam. Yeah, we love the Dog River area. Lots of great homes and with access to the bay, what more could you ask for?
I've lived in Grand Bay for almost 40 years. For those that don't know Grand Bay is in south west Mobile county. Before that I lived on Dauphin Island Parkway in the 70's. Mobile definitely has its pros and cons, but I couldn't imagine living anywhere else.
Yep! There’s definitely not a perfect place anywhere, but I plan on staying here forever! Unless of course, my wife tells me otherwise, LOL
Hey, Jeff, great vids. Realtor up here in Toronto dreaming of snowbirding somewhere in the future :) I think Mobile and AL in general could get more retirees in the future. So many positives that most people don't know about. I like Mobile's "Goldilocks" size too, not too big, not too small, just right. Closest I've been is Panama City, FL. Most Canadians never think of the panhandle, let alone Alabama. Too bad. Most northerners only think of FL, often because their friends or family are there. But if those considerations don't play into our decision when the time comes, I'd definitely give Mobile a look. Northern Gulf beaches, including Alabama's, gotta be the nicest in the US. Have a great year!
Thanks Steve! I've been to Toronto before, with my former career! Actually, I spent 25 days straight in CA about 10 year ago. Why no ice in drinks, lol. Anyway, thanks for the comment. Yes, I agree, many more will be headed this direction.
@@livinginmobile Ha! I never though about the ice thing. Just one of our quirks I guess. I gotta have ice in my drink so maybe I'm more of a Southerner than I thought. Way way back had ancestors who settled in South Carolina backwoods before eventually coming to Canada. So who knows!
yep i live and mobile,al and they have big mastions downtown
Yes I love it
Thanks for this video. We are planning on relocating this year. The Mobile area is on our list of places to look.

Looking to come down for 2 weeks in the spring/summer (2021) to look at homes. My question is where are all the cool spots to boat???
ah, yeah, there are several places. Check out Dog River as a start. That is on my list for sure. Hit me up and we can set a time to chat about coming down. I would love to get to know you and see if I can help you find what you need. JeffJonesAgent@kw.com

@@AKiNGx Here is a video I made of it! ua-cam.com/video/uxyFA8Z9Ylc/v-deo.html
Lovely video, very well done and informative. Thank you!
Thanks for the compliment. I love getting to do these!
I’m in the process of moving there right now. I’ve been doing my research for a while. I was leaning towards fort meyers Florida until I visited Mobile recently. I’m in NJ and looking at a very affordable rental there. My job has 3 locations I can transfer to in and around Mobile.
It really depends on what area you want to live in, and, rentals are not as available now as they used to be because many landlords are selling the property because the property value has increased so much over the last year, but, you could get a three bedroom two bath home in the $1000 - $1200 range. It’s crazy!
@@livinginmobile I was looking at a 2 br for around 860. Insane! For 1200 almost anywhere in NJ, you get anything from a studio to a tiny 1 br apt if you’re lucky. If the rent is any lower, you’re probably living with cockroaches, hookers and drug dealers in the building. And also have to worry about your car and where you parked it . Just don’t leave any loose change in it either.
@@livinginmobile crap do you have some under 900 that decent
@@susanr1903 it’s going to be difficult to find a house under $900 in this market. The cost of rental houses have really increased over the last few months and the amount of inventory has plummeted because most sellers are getting their equity out because of the increase in housing prices.
@@livinginmobile keep me up on it if you we want to move ..maybe how hard is to buy ..we seen some that nice under 100,000 that look good ..we hope ..our rent here going crazy
Awesome video! Loved living in Mobile! Love the seafood! Great job!
Thanks! Yes, the seafood is amazing!!!
Just watched your video, very helpful info and much appreciated you took the time to do this. My wife and I are going to sell our place in the next 4 months and head that way.
I will become a real estate agent when we move down there.
Thanks so much for writing. Let me know if I can give you any insight about the market or tips on passing the Alabama real estate exam. Keep me posted!
@@livinginmobile Will do! Thank you
I attended both springhill and the university of mobile. The university of mobile is a wonderful school that is just big enough to have what you might want to study in but just small enough to have a personal touch in your needs and for it to feel like a home. Dauphin Island is my favorite place on earth and yes I've taken the ferry before myself. Speaking of mardi gras, my ex wife is in a mystic society there but I won't tell which one. I'm originally from Detroit Michigan and when my wx wide who is from mobile introduced me to mobile back in 1992 I fell in love with the place.
I went to the University of Mobile as well. Mobile has so much to offer. Thanks for watching!
@@livinginmobile The staff at that school are both down to earth and classy.
I lived overseas most of my life, but my husband is from the south so we moved to west mobile and I am having a hard time. I can't walk anywhere there are no sidewalks. I've gained 15 pounds because I have to drive everywhere its not like that in Europe. Your video has helped me because I have been crying to my hubby wanting to move. I am a vegetarian so the restaurants means nothing to me. I like to get out and run, walk exercise, theater and art... you mentioned the beach. Is it close, can I do my morning runs on the beach? I live off of Cody Road and Cottage Hill...
So great to hear from you. I know that Mobile can be a culture shock compared to living overseas. But, with that said, there are certainly a lot of bonuses. The southern hospitality, and the food is great, but because of being a vegetarian, you will definitely have some limitations. As for the beach, I have another video about Dauphin Island, which is only about 35 minutes from where you live. If you really wanted to walk on the beach, you could be there super fast as an option. Also, cottage Hill Park or metal of honor park is also a great place to walk as well. But, with Publix coming to McFarland and College Hill, that would likely open up more opportunities for neighborhood walking as I can only imagine they will be putting in sidewalks.
@@livinginmobile Thank you so much! I just returned from Metal of Honor Park and I watched your dauphin island video, going there tomorrow. Maybe I can contact you to sell my home in West Mobile and find one in a gated area downtown... where I can walk everywhere. Again thank you.
@@ciao98496 So glad you got to go to the park. It’s beautiful on the walking trails. Also, you will love the island. I would love to chat with you about helping you find a new place, and anything I can do to help in the process, it would be my pleasure. Feel free to give me a call or shoot me a text message anytime. 251-545-8445
If you live at Cody & Cottage Hill then cottage hill park is walking distance from your location. It has great walking and bike paths and on most sunny days plenty of people are there walking. The bike path is super cool it has a section that goes through the trees. I hope this helps
That $300k property tax at $1300 is insane. I pay $11000 for a $400k here in IL. Atop of that our sales tax is still at 10% after every other fee.
So that explains why everyone is moving here! Wow!
@@livinginmobile that and Chicago just had 55 shootings and 11 homicides this last weekend... so yeah it’s getting bad lol
Can you do a video about the nearest beaches ???? Or like tourism places????
Yes! That would be Dauphin Island. Coming soon! I’ll let you know. Thanks for the feedback!
for a city on the water it is a shame there us NO access to a beach.You have to leave town to walk in the water tho there are many boat launch places

It’s also fabulous on Mardi Gras
There's no more PF Changs. I like R and R seafood that's where Ilike to get my crawfish when it's in season.
Yes, we were all sad to see it go.
How much does land go for per acre? Like 10 acres. In west Texas it’s 10k per acre.
Hey Michael, it really depends. In a residential area, commercial area, on a dirt road in the country, in a suburban area on a paved road, so many different variables. I just looked up a few examples. In the suburbs I found a 10 acre parcel for 300K, closer in town, it was about double that. On the outskirts of town I found a 9 acre parcel for 90K. It’s all over the map.
MobTown, is My Home!! Love the People,Food,Family,City!!!
Yes, the seafood is amazing!!!!
Can't agree with your first con. South Alabama has NCAA D1 athletics. Brand new football stadium, basketball program on the rise, and a baseball program that competes for NCAA tournament contention nearly every year.

There’s so much happening in Mobile right now, the economy is really growing as well.

How is the crime rate in Alabama? Also am thinking its not as diverse as LA or NYC with different multicultural backgrounds.
I don’t think it’s fair to compare or expect Mobile to be as diverse as two of the largest cities in the United States, but I think our city is very diverse considering the size. As for the crime rate, I think it will vary and be different depending on the area of town and the different factors that are involved. I wish I had a better answer for you, but there are so many variables when looking at the crime rate and diversity of our city.
@@livinginmobile I see, but when I say diverse, I mean would I be able to go to some store and buy rice? And am not talking about an Asian store, just your typical big box store like a walmart.
@@samjam6989 Man, we can get rice anywhere in Mobile. Lots of it too, it's everywhere!
Does Mobile have safe walking, biking trails? I’m from the Atlanta area and, though things are rarely safe here anymore, we do have lots of parks and paved walking trails to stay active.
Mobile does not have a huge amount of parks relative to the size of the overall area, but I think if you got connected with a local biking community, you would be surprised what is available. I don’t have a lot of first-hand experience with bike trails, but I do know, like I mentioned in my “old Shell Road tour” video, you can stay on the sidewalk from Broad Street all the way to Cody Rd. out in West Mobile. Mobile is becoming more walkable by the day.
@Original A you sure are miserable, all the people I met in Mobile were in fact real and were very good people.
Could you do a video on what it's like to be a real estate agent in Mobile

Thanks Albert! Yes, come on over to Mobile. We’d love to have you visit!
This was a year ago lot has closed up since
you are correct!
I've lived hear in Mobile all my life. I love it hear. Wintertime is usually very nice, the beaches are nice, traffic is not too bad, and there is good food. My only two issues with the town are the humidity and the lack of good transportation (buses and rail service to neighboring cities). But, either way, I still love it!
That could be fix how about urber or doodash do you have that ..what about taxi or cabs

Ive been all over the world and Mobile is the best place.... gulf shores, restaurants, cost of living, southern hospitality, weather (minus hurricanes).

Hasnt been beautiful since before hurricane fredric
@@ew332 that’s your opinion. I wasn’t alive then, but compared to other cities I’ve been to, Mobile is clean and beautiful.
@@shalindahenry9554 yes thats my opinion. It was much nicer as a simple small town. As far as things to do..there is far less to here now as opposed to the freedom that once was from here to the beach.
Places like "the hangout",,,,which was always "the hangout" before commercializing ruined it.
The beach.. Used to be all beach..now its just another city..cant even see the beach. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.......but beauty isnt only what you see with your eyes.its far deeper.most people who were born here in the times before fredric...wish all the people who have moved here and ruined it would just go back to where the hell they came from.
What's not to love about Mobile? But being a native makes me a bit bias.

Curious about where is the best area to live with kids? We live in Breaux Bridge, La. ( I'm a little skeptical about the food in Alabama😂). We are a strong cajun catholic family that likes get togethers, going to mass, football ( Geaux 🐅) , festivals ( there is one every week until almost Christmas) , hunting, fishing, etc. What are the best catholic schools to send our boys too and are there church parishes that are part of the community?

A lot has changed… While so much has remained the same.
Why has our air service sucked so bad for so long?
If you’re talking about pricing with the airport, I think it has a lot to do with the size of the city. Pretty much every where you go, if leaving Mobile, it has to go through Atlanta or Charlotte or Dallas. With all the new jobs coming to the area, and the city growing so much, and with the potential of the airport moving down to the Brookley complex, I think the airline pricing will start to go down accordingly.
Is Mobile a good place to retire?
I would definitely say yes even if just for the cost of living. So many positives because of that. Also, be sure and look up the town of Fairhope. It has been on the retirement radar for years.

Hey Shelisa, great to hear from you. The job market is really strong, we have a thriving economy in Mobile. As for rent prices, it really just depends on where you want to live. I've seen four bedrooms as low as $1100, and it just goes up from there.

I know this is an old post but it's pretty bad. Drugs are a big problem here and occasionally these addicts may break into your home or rob you. Christmas eve 2020 I walked outside to be met by a man with an AR-15 that robbed me.
