As a part of my work, I went on a trip with the Mayor of our small town in Alabama, and all of the department heads for the city.  We visited Waveland, Mississippi.  \n\nWaveland had a population of about 8,500 people and was directly on the coast.  Waveland was covered by 25 foot waves, twice during Katrina.  The water traveled as far as 10 miles inland!!  The water was incredibly destructive.  A house that has been completely covered in water is a rubble pile.  The amount of debris still left to be cleared 6 MONTHS LATER  was mind blowing.  The Mayor of Waveland and all of the city employees were soldiering on in a crisis state every day.  They divided the town into north and south (south being by the beach) and the city oversaw clearing and re-constructing the South.  The North was to be delt with by the Corps of Engineers.  The Corps took over the six dump sites the city already had in place and permitted (the city had been through hurricanes before) and told them they had to find and permit other sites.  (Where DO you put 15 million tons of debris?)  The city got to it and had accomplished 10 TIMES what the Corps had been able to do!  \n\nWaveland complained that the response from the Federal Government was too slow,  the communication was terrible, and the rules changed constantly.  \n\nI don't think the Feds CAN respond to a  disaster like Katrina.  The process is toooooo sssllooooww.  Also the Department of Homeland Security (over FEMA) was never intended or structured to deal with a disaster like this.  They were put in place for invasions.  We need some major renovation or a new department!!\n\nFYI - the money is still there - it just takes them soooo long to distribute it.  We are still getting checks and funding from IVAN!!

Well, I live in Madison, Wisconsin and we have great air.  All that Chicago wind stays well south.\nLow to no crime, one of the lowest unemployment rates in the nation, voted in the top ten places to raise a family (so you know it's socially clean), arts, events, resteraunts, and all the things you would expect to find in a modern midwestern town.  Population about 190,000, but very small town feel due to strict laws about urban sprawl.  Fishing too. World class fishing.

We moved here from Chicago a few years ago to Birmingham. My wife practically had to be forced onto the plane when I came down for the interview. Now, she wouldn't move back for all the money in the world. Here's why:\n\n1) Great people. Forget all the stereotypes. You can find friendly, thoughtful, enlightened people in Birmingham. It's a university-driven town. And as far as the racism goes, I head more racial slurs in one week in Chicago than I've heard in five years in Birmingham. \n\n2) Surprising cultural scene. My wife sat on several boards in Chicago and was absolutely amazed at the diversity of cultural opportunities here. The ballet is first-rate (only one of a handful allowed to perform Ballanchine), the symphony is pretty good, and you have a host of music festivals, film festivals, etc. etc. What's more, the arts are far more accessible in Birmingham than in other larger cities. Oh, and every other year, this city seems to produce a Pulitzer Prize winner. Must be something in the water here. My house is only 2 blocks from where Walker Percy grew up. \n\n3) Great restaurants. Seriously. And I'm not talking rib shacks here. \n\n4) Natural beauty. We were expecting flat and dry. It's hilly and gorgeous here. And the winters, although chilly, are relatively mild. \n\n5) Way of life. The people here work hard, but it's not all about the money. Gracious people, well-mannered children. Oh, and when you move here, people actually bring you food to get acquainted. I never realized people did that until we moved here.

My boyfriend went there and loved it. It's a nice town, they have a great outlet mall, and the campus looks pretty nice from what I have seen. I have actually been considering transferring there myself.

Wow..that thing has been closed for years. Used to be part of the infamous "black triangle" smelters in US and Mexico. The town still hasn't recovered from the closing and Phelps Dodge leaving. Whats the scoop?

What kind of info are you looking for?  Here's a link with some good info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cincinnati.\n\nAnd, NO, we aren't just into chili and baseball!  And it is NOT a boring city.  I would say to the person who said he/she's only lived here two months, but thinks it's boring: Get out and get involved.  Obviously you've not explored the city from anywhere other than your couch!\n\nThere are TONS of exciting things just around the bend!\n\nOne World Wednesday's - http://www.cincinnatiartmuseum.org/oneworld/about.shtml \n\nKings Island - \nhttp://www.pki.com\n\nThe Flying Pig Marathon in May -\nhttp://www.flyingpigmarathon.com/\n\nThe Taste of Cincinnati on Memorial Day Weekend -\nhttp://www.tasteofcincinnati.com/\n\nRiverbend Concerts -\nhttp://www.riverbend-music.com/\n\nRiverdowns Races - \nhttp://www.riverdowns.com/

Brother,\n\nHeaven is our true home and like a way faring stranger here below we look forward to getting to our real home. Secondly I like that song as well. And to think the city itself is 1500 sq. miles not to mention the outskirts of that wonderful city of Gold and precious stones!!
