It's going to be a wonderfully positive culture shock...getting out of flat as a pancake, traffic jammed Houston and moving into a beautiful city...

JenniJ32 is on a distinguished road
Alabaster is a really great place to live. I've lived here for the past 12 years, and I've found that the housing prices are so much more reasonable out here. You get a lot more house for not so much money. The morning commute can be pretty bad, but it's quiet out here, there's very little crime, and the Shelby County school system is fantastic. It's like living in the country, but with the convenience of the city. This area is becoming much more developed commercially, so you don't have to go very far to shop. I've found that the 280 area is even more congested than this area (I work on 280), and the houses are overpriced. To me, moving a little further out in the country was worth the drive into town.
