Any Forum Members in Mobile?
03/01/13 3:24 AM

It looks like I may be relocating to Mobile Alabama in the next few months, will know for sure by April. Can anyone give me a heads up on what to expect in the area , riding, climate, culture etc? Never been there before.

So far I can't see any upside to moving there from Dallas, it appears to be about as cold in the winter, maybe a little milder temperatures in the summer with a lot more humidity.... and rain.... and bugs. Oh, I almost forgot hurricanes, didn't Gulfport and Biloxi get nearly wiped out by Katrina back in 2005?

On the other hand it is nice to have a job!

No one on the forum from that area huh?

Kruz, I work in Mobile at STAerospace. Live in Pensacola. Anything I can answer for you I will. I've been here for about 3 years. Stayed in Mobile for 2 months, much prefer living in Pensacola. Lol I also lived in DFW from '82 til '95. Different atmosphere here. Pensacola's not bad though. About a 50 minute or so commute.

Talk to me RocketRider14, need to know as much as I can before making a decision to move there. My company is being bought out by Continental, formerly Teledyne-Continental in Mobile. I was looking at Pensacola, what kind of a commute is that? What is weather like in those parts, I've been tracking temps the last few days and it looks pretty much lock step with Dallas.

My biggest concern is the bikes corroding away into a pile of rust in the salt air.

You were talking about atmosphere in Mobile different than Dallas. In what way, good or bad?

Thanks for any info.

Oh 50 minutes commute, missed that earlier. What about riding, any good roads, twisty, or mostly flat?

Ex-wife issues
