You have few options to match Gtown (DC area) in the deep south. Charlotte, Atlanta, New Orleans (to a certain extent). Or if you are interested in Texas, there is the Big-D, Austin, or Houston (but Houston is h-u-g-e. It is like an hour drive from one side to the other. Also expect prices to be similar to G-Town and Alexandria...nothing is cheap anymore.

Great restaurants, a really good music scene, concerts, festivals, arts, nightclubs. It's a pretty great town in which to be single.

Birmimgham is a GREAT city, however the nightlife when compared to Miami/LA/DC will not be as lively. Altlanta would be closer to what you are looking for in terms of night life.

Hmm...maybe you should look into the southwest. Phoenix, Denver, Albuquerque, etc. all tend to have a great deal going on.
