Atlanta Nestie with Montgomery question
Hi ladies!! I was told that you all are very nice and helpful 
I was wondering if I could get any/all information about Montgomery, AL. DH has a job lead there and while we are happy in Atlanta, this would be an amazing opportunity for him. I'm hesitant to move from ATL if for no other reason than fear of the unknown. I'll appreciate any information!
Thanks!

Re: Atlanta Nestie with Montgomery question
Hey ISU!!!!
There are a couple girls on here that can give you some info.
I live about 45 min from there. It will not have all the shopping, things to do, etc. that you are used to in ATL.
However you will NOT have the traffic, taxes, etc. in Montgomery.
Do yall have kids yet? You'll want to consider schools. I have friends who work in Montgomery and live in AU just for the schools.
I know others will have more info to give you but I guess since I moved from ATL to here I can compare some. However I haven't lived in Montgomery, just visited.
Just playing around on www.remax.com I came up with these listings for Prattville between $100,000 and $200,000:

And Millbrook:

Most of the newer neighborhoods have 2 story homes, but the area I live in (which is older) is majority 1 level ranch style homes. A Montgomery specific realty site to check out is www.alamls.com.
You can search by bedrooms, sq. foot, etc. I have found that housing in Prattville is cheaper as well. We'll buy in Prattville in a few years after we have kids.
For jobs, check out the state personnel website. www.personnel.state.al.us
One huge advantage to the area is that it is the state capital and home to a large Air Force base, so there are a good number of jobs.
OH ISU -
You will get WAY more for your money here. If you think it's a possibility list your townhouse NOW. My condo (as you know) has been on the market in Sandy Springs for almost 2 yrs now. Hopefully in Kennesaw you will sell faster.
You prob won't have a hard time finding a paralegal position since Montgomery is that capital.
Again, you won't have the taxes you do now, you will have WAY less traffic, and while you might not have all the shops you do there, you'll have a Target and the necessities. Plus you'll have great nesties, once again!!!
Hi There!
I've never lived in Montgomery, so I can't help there. However, I work for a large moving company, so if you guys need a mover feel free to e-mail me! Even if you've already got a mover, I'm always happy to help with advice, tips & tricks, etc.
