Note: I see most of your answers are negative... Now let me tell YOU something --Hubby & I travel ALL over the country ... been to 48 states in U.S. -- lived near Buffalo, NY all our lives, wanted to move south (to go where warmer, away from snow, but not to FLA -nice to visit, don't want to live there) ...researched, travelled many southern states (KY,TN, MS LA, SC), drove back roads, talked to people. After which, we CHOSE to make our home in Alabama!!
No, people are NOT stupid... they do take life slow & easy, but at 50, that's what we're looking for. Laid back. Heard "young people" there say it's boring, but WE don't need night clubs or bars... just serene mountains, restaurants, theaters, state parks, beautiful waters, shopping (biggest outlet in the south)... AL has it all. The people, they are sooo friendly & have ALL welcomed us. They make eye contact, smile & wave to EVERYONE.
Taxes are practically nothing, compared to NY!
Y'ALL don't know what you're talkin about!!

People in Alabama don't want other people to come in and ruin the nice life and way of living... therefore, why let a secret of good living out to the public ?

If you are referring to Yahoo Answers, they only list city names not states, and they only list the top 30 city destinations.
The most popular attraction in Alabama is Vulcan Park in Burmingham, home to the world's largest cast iron statue.

You obviously have never been there. Who really wants to travel to Alabama? Gulf Shores, Mississippi is way better than Gulf Shores, Alabama. And even Orange Beach, Alabama isn't that great. Don't worry, if you have been there, you aren't missing much.

I have passed through there several times, no one is missing anything. So I can understand why it's not on a list of travel.

It's a terrible oversight. I love Alabama! Keep an open mind, people.

Who would want to travel there? There's nothing to do , and it's a real boring state!

Because I live in the state next door and do not even consider AL part of the US.
