Top 10 worst towns in Alabama.
Top 10 worst towns in Alabama.
In today's list, we will take a look at some of the worst towns in Alabama. These are the towns you probably don't want to be looking for real estate. They have crime, poverty, cheap real estate, and a low cost of living. So if you are thinking about moving to one of these towns and buying a home you have to do a balancing act. Are crime and poverty worth the low prices?
Every state has them so let's take a look. I hope you enjoy it.
Do you need a local Realtor for the area you want to move to?
I have teamed up with HomeAndMoney.com to help you find one that suits your needs.

Peach Park - Clanton AL
Located in the heart of Alabama, Peach Park is a family owned and operated tradition for travelers up and down Interstate 65. Peach Park was established in 1984 by Gene and Frances Gray as a small, roadside fruit stand. The stand would serve as an alternate location to hauling peaches to New Orleans to sell on the French Quarter Market. In 1988, the now famous, homemade peach ice cream was introduced to the customers of Peach Park by Frances, who still makes the delicious ice cream today. The once roadside fruit stand has grown over the years to include a barbecue restaurant, a bakery with homemade fried pies and cobbler, a homemade cakes and candy kitchen, and a gift shop with unique gifts as well as gourmet food items. Spread over seven acres, the Peach Park property features a beautiful garden, a playground, the iconic lighthouse fountain, fourteen sites for RV camping, and the historic Orchard House which is available for rent for special occasions.

We spent Thanksgiving 2022 in Clanton, AL and were impressed on what this little town had to offer. We liked the rustic water tower, the symmetry of a city park, and an old water filtration plant with a caved in roof.

Alabama Landmarks (Drone View)
Driving through Alabama you may see some things that might surprise you. Things like a Saturn II rocket located on I-65 just south of the Alabama-Tennessee state line. The Statue of Liberty replica is smaller than the one you will see on Ellis Island. Ours is located just off of I-459 in Birmingham Alabama. The Big Peach water tower is located at exit 212 on I-65 in Clanton Alabama. All of the clips were shot using the DJI Mavic Air.
Reflecting - Scenic train trestle over the Coosa River 🚂🌊
Reflection of scenic train trestle over the Coosa River.
The Coosa River begins at the confluence of the Oostanaula and Etowah rivers in Rome, Georgia, and ends just northeast of the Alabama state capital, Montgomery, where it joins the Tallapoosa River to form the Alabama River just south of Wetumpka. Around 90% of the Coosa River's length is located in Alabama. Coosa County, Alabama, is located on the Coosa River.

Boothill Graveyard, Tombstone, AZ - OK Corral Deaths #tombstonearizona #tombstoneaz #boothill
Video featuring a look at the historic Boot Hill Cemetery/Boothill Graveyard in Tombstone, AZ, a fascinating site that offers a glimpse into the Old West and its storied past.
Boot Hill Cemetery, named for the fact that many of its inhabitants died with their boots on, is a final resting place for some of the most notorious figures of the Wild West. Established in 1878, it is one of the most famous cemeteries in the United States, drawing visitors from around the world to learn about the lawmen, outlaws, and everyday citizens who made Tombstone a legendary frontier town.
The video begins with a look at the graves of the men who died in the infamous Gunfight at the O.K. Corral on October 26, 1881. This legendary shootout involved lawmen Virgil Earp, Wyatt Earp, and Doc Holliday against the Clanton-McLaury gang. The conflict resulted in the deaths of Billy Clanton, Frank McLaury, and Tom McLaury. Their graves at Boot Hill Cemetery serve as a poignant reminder of this violent and pivotal moment in Wild West history.
The cemetery is filled with colorful stories and the legends of gunfighters, pioneers, and settlers.
The video captures the breathtaking view from Boot Hill Cemetery. Overlooking the vast Arizona landscape, the view is a stark and beautiful contrast to the cemetery's somber history. The wide-open vistas and dramatic skies provide a moment of reflection and connection to the land that shaped the lives of those buried here.
