8th lowest CoL in the USA and a pretty great place to live. Glad to call Birmingham my home.
Jasper here, even cheaper. A neat little town not too far from the Ham.
Currently two miles from work with dirt-cheap rent while I build up my nest egg. Late twenties, single and enjoying the convenient nightlife. I'll gladly move when it's time to though (better school systems and all those family-life-community benefits).
