Mountain Brook outside of Birmingham, AL, is extremely underrated

It may be underrated to people from outside the area, but it's pretty highly rated among us AL folks. Definitely considered one of the best areas in the state imo.

Madison, AL seems to be a better kept secret to me. Further north so add a couple hours to the beach trips. But closer to the places like Chattanooga and Nashville. Just outside of Huntsville, which I read was one of the fastest growing economies in the country. It's not as big as Bham, but less trashy imo.
