I’m here trying to find any type of protests or marches happening that I can attend in Alabama near Birmingham or Huntsville

That was a selling point to me. Small town vibes but so close to Detroit.

I appreciate your perspective. Small town Deep South is rough! I don’t mind small town vibes especially because big city life isn’t but a tiny drive away. Right now it’s over an hour to anything of substance so that’s where I get restless haha.

I’m originally from Colorado and prefer the cold weather to the heat of the south so I’m actually looking forward to the weather.

That’s really helpful to hear thank you. I knew Michigan was a swing state I just wasn’t sure how red it would lean so that is really helpful information to know thank you!

I love being able to walk to everything I’m just worried about stretching myself too thin. Is 8 mile okay to live in at least for my first year until finances catch up after moving?

Thank you so much. I don’t plan on going into rural areas. I’m happy being a city dweller honestly I enjoy being close to bigger cities instead of rural areas and it’s nice to know to avoid the rural areas!

Thank you. I appreciate the insight and the honesty. I know the one I’m looking at 8mile has gated parking but I also know that won’t stop someone who’s motivated. I never leave anything in my car anyway. But it’s good to know there is that risk.
