Current Resident: Millbrook is a small town, where everyone knows everyone and everyone helps one another. The best experience I was able to be apart of & see was when a mother of 1& pregnant with their 2nd, was diagnosed with cancer at 34 weeks into the pregnancy. Everyone, in a town of 14k, came together and shared her story; and was able to raise enough funds for treatment at MD Anderson in TX. A group of pilots provided free, private airfare to& from. She passed 4 months after diagnoses; on the morning of her birthday, and at the exact time the Mayor was dedicating the day as "Rhonda Adair" day; from then on. Her two children she left behind, are able to have a great stay-at-home dad; from all the funds raised. Even the small athletic department of the city does community outreach, allows scholarships for kids who's parents can't afford to pay the fees & supply them with equipment. Overall, it's an amazing community full of loving individuals that truly care about their neighbors!... Read 28 reviews

Former Resident: I grew up in Prattville. It is a quiet city that is full of parks and recreational areas. Life in Prattville moves steadily, and it is an excellent place for people who dislike big cities' fast pace. When I was younger, there was a roller skating rink in Prattville. I wish there were more places for children and teens to enjoy themselves. It might give them a reason to get out of the house and off their mobile devices.... Read 123 reviews

Current Resident: I have lived in Wetumpka for the past 12 years and have loved every minute of it. It is very nice to be so close to neighboring cities such as Montgomery and Prattville. I attended Redland Elementary School for K-6, Wetumpka Middle School for 7-8, and will be an incoming freshman this fall at Wetumpka High School. Wetumpka has various fun activities to keep you busy and a great sports complex. The restoration of Downtown has been wonderful, and is continuing to surprise us.... Read 52 reviews

Current Resident: Overall I really love living here in Montgomery! The job and real-estate market have always been strong here, with fun things around town and the diversity of people who live here. Cost of living is very affordable and the growth throughout this city is really impressive. That being said I believe Montgomery really has only two main factors holding it back, crime and public schools. Although the magnet and private schools here are fantastic, the average public schools are often lacking in maintenance and kids can fall behind. As of recently, however (early 2022) things have been turning around in the school system for the better which is good to see. Lastly is crime, as most places around Montgomery are great safe places to live, however some parts of the southern areas of the city and the west side are plagued with property and sometimes violent crime. Overall the MPD has done a good job keeping these incidents down, but crime continues to be one of Montgomery's lingering issues.... Read 464 reviews

Current Resident: I've lived in Eclectic a majority of my life, and have loved every minute of it! You don't get the loving, family environment that Eclectic has, from just anywhere. No often do tragedies happen around here, but if and when they do, it effects the community as a whole, not just the family the tragedy happened too, but the whole town. Most people around Eclectic will give you the shirt off their back, no one looks at race or gender, we're all family! This town is small, and doesn't have many job opportunities, but the tri-counties around here do. The school system is accommodating to all student, and it's completely fit for ones with special needs. ... Read 6 reviews

Parent: I'm proud to say the crime rate here is very low. We as a bonding neighborhood believe in looking out for each other when in need..which I think help with the low crime rate. We don't have to steal just simply ask! The police force consist on three officers including the chief of police. They are very visible as they patrol through the town and they actually stop and talk to the citizens. Sometime, I think they get a little bored with their job....not much to do!... Read 3 reviews

Current Resident: Holtville is a small town on the outskirts of Wetumpka, Alabama, you will not find Holtville on a map. Holtville is also known as "Slapout" because an old man once told a traveling couple "we are slapout out of that" it simply just stuck. I love everything about my tiny town. Everyone knows everyone, and everyone has eachothers backs. The small school system here, is absolutly amazing, and I have two children currently enrolled in Holtville's school. What I would love to see come to our town, is more money towards the sports for all the children, to have access to everything they need. If you have not ventured out to the small town of Holtville, I would recommend that you check it out one day.... Read 1 review
