, and were a single 32 y/o, and had to work primarily on the Northeast side of town (for the few days I'd actually work IN Birmingham), had a moderate income (let's just say over 50K).....
Where would you guys (or gals) suggest?
Things are not well with the fiance, and I might be making a move for work, and now unfortunately because life here in Montgomery is about to change...

Depends on what you are looking for really. Are you looking for a house or an apartment? If you want to be in the middle of things, my brother loved living in his apartment in Inverness. He works in Trussville and the drive isn't too bad from there. If you are going to buy a house, you may have to move out further. I had a house before you got to Chelsea (out Highway 280) when I lived in Birmingham and the drive out to Trussville wasn't bad because you could go a bac way.

Apartment first probably. Not familiar with Inverness.... I'll have to look at that.

If you have to travel anywhere during what is considered normal rush hours stay the hell away from Inverness. It is in the middle of the 280 quagmire. i lived there and really liked it but I was in front of the morning traffic and after the evening rush so the traffic wasn't a factor.

I was looking at the Fultondale, Gardendale areas.... Our regional warehouse is located in Tarrant City by the Airport. There is a back way to get from Fultondale to Pinson Valley Rd that keeps me off the interstate if necessary, other than that, I'm usually out of town well before the traffic starts to hit.
Keep the suggestions coming though..

Read up on Wildforest Apts. Would be interested in some info, but from what I'm reading, sounds more like a Samford student living dealio than anything. Not sure if I want to be that up close and personal with the college age crowd. The ladies are nice, but I don't need the frat-tastic crowd in the apartment above.... :big:

Well, let's compare living expenses at the moment... Here in the gump, for a 3 bedroom house and utilities (+cable, fax line, internet)... I'm paying about 1400 a month...
Can I live in B'ham in a 2 bedroom + apartment for the same? Keep in mind, I'm only interested in renting for now...

Easily.

I just moved out of Wildforest...about 65% samford students and the rest young professionals! VERY hot girls. I loved it there, but im 28 and figured it was about time to buy a house! I was kind of like you though...wanted to be in the middle of everything, and worked in Trussville (northeast side). Anyway, if you are looking for a good spot I liked it. Also, might want to try the summit apartments. I think the majority is single professionals.

I live in Gardendale and I love its only about 9 miles to downtown, traffic's not bad at all and 3 miles from a Best Buy :clap:, There are brand new apartments about a 1/10th of a mile from the interstate, pm me if you want to buy a house, I know a great real estate agent. With your budget you can get a nice house(brand new!) in Fultondale or Gardendale. I hope my imput helps, I'm sorry to hear about the problems with your fiance.

It's cool man, I still took a look at the link you sent. Led me to looking for a few other places as well. We'll see what happens. I haven't split with her yet, and when you're living in the same house with a kid, it's going to be a very touchy and slow process. It's not going to be a fun next couple weeks for the ol' Chopper here, but you've got to do what you've got to do, and I'm not a happy camper in my current situation..

Good luck...

I am apartment shopping as well. Regarding Wildforest, there is a 4 month waiting list. Period. (The lady was quite stern on this point). There are two places right next to each other. Wildforest is 13 years old. Wildridge is 6 years old. The floor plans are exactly the same. In Wildridge, more utilities are included in the rent price, and it is a tad more expensive. You can spend between approx $700 and $950 depending on what you want to get. They have 1, 2, and 3 B/Rs. Nice patios. It is all young people, so you'd have to put up with thier lifestyle. Unless youre still a kid at heart, or you want to oogle coeds, i would probably suggest somewhere else. There are all sorts of houses and condos for rent in the Homewood/Mountain Brook area (if you like Wildforest's location) that you can find for roughly the same price you are paying now, you just have to look around. There is a lot of stuff on craigslist. you can check there. http://bham.craigslist.org/apa/

I asked you that one time in a Aunation thread and you never responded! I felt like a stalker so I deleted the post. I live off Shady Grove road in Lexington Park.

Hey no stalking allowed. I live off of Glenn Chapel rd in a little sub division called the willows
