Can anyone please advise me in the safest areas, best school systems close to Mobile? Fairhope neighborhoods?

Thank you

I'd try asking around in the Mobile section of City-Data.com Forum: Relocation, Moving, Local City Discussions They seem to have a pretty good group of core posters there that know the area well.

I moved from there late summer

Having lived there, I'd move to the Fairhope, area. I didn't have kids in school, but, I heard that West Mobile Semmes area, has a great school system.

Good luck!

Beachmouse,

I found that website to be very helpful! Thanks so much!

Diane 4145- Yes Fairhope looks like a very nice place to live...do you know much about Daphne?

 

[SoWalMom]

Any info on Spanish Fort?? I have been reading great reviews....

Daphne

It's beautiful and Ive heard only, great things! I know someone that lives there and loves it! They have a huge new retail development in the Spanish Fort area, just North of Daphne. I know of someone that's lived in that area for a long time and loves it. I would focus on Eastern bay area, personally.
Eastern Shore Centre... experience the lifestyle.

I think Spanish Fort is more our speed. They have virtually no crime, plus their school system looks fabulous... they even have a fine arts program at the elementary school! We are taking a road trip New Years day to check it out, as well as Daphne and Fairhope. Thanks for the direction!

We have only visited the area, but Fairhope appears to be out of the movies, beautiful and the people are very friendly and welcoming. Best of luck on your move.

I have friends who live in Faifhope. If you'd like their #, pm me and I'll give it to you. They've been there for some time.
