Hi everybody, we are a french couple and we are moving to Mobile on July 2015. We have already searched for a flat or a house to rent, but we would like to take advice. We search for a safe place, close to the new Airbus factory if possible, and in a quarter with a friendly atmosphere so we can take part of the Mobilians life. We are excited with the idea of comming in your City, and wait for your answers.
See you next summer !!

First of all, welcome! I'd be happy to help!

I would say you should start looking in downtown Mobile. There's a good amount of rental properties available in the urban atmosphere that downtown provides. Downtown is quite safe and is only a ~5 minute drive down I-10 to the Airbus factory at Brookley Field. There are plenty of restaurants, bars, night clubs, museums, music, et cetera downtown.

I would definitely suggest downtown or midtown. I would also suggest looking into the Oakleigh Garden District for a house. All of these neighborhoods are filled with professionals young and old and would give you a good taste of the city! Downtown is where most of the nightlife would be but is a very short walk or car ride from these other neighborhoods.

I suspect the poster may have been referring to the tragic events in France, given that the original poster indicated she is French.

If that is the case, I apologize. However, with the trolls that float around these forums it is hard to tell.

8 year member with over 2K posts and more reputation points than posts. Why don't you look up the word troll next time before you make a fool of yourself with such accusations.

OP, I lived 20 minutes from Mobile for 18 years. On that note, my condolences.

We're all so glad that you have such a reputation on an internet forum. But, I'm not the one coming in to set fires in threads like this.

Also, I'm so glad you took that time to come and make an intelligent post instead of just saying "my condolences" with some feigned omniscience about a city you lived 20 minutes from for 18 years.
