re: Living in L.A. "Lower Alabama"

I grew up in Gulf Shores and couldn’t ask for a better childhood. My parents wanted to move back to LA for family reasons when I was a sophomore in HS so we moved to Belle Chasse. Complete hell hole compared to what I was used to but I adapted.

I would love to retire around Daphne, Fairhope or Spanish Fort. Fingers crossed that the area doesn’t get overrun and ruined. To me the bay side of Baldwin county is truly gods country.

The area just has that southern charm with a classy feel. People are humble and genuine, good restaurants all around, great schools, good fishing and only 40 mins from the beach.
