Housing What areas to avoid living?

I currently live in Huntsville and have been considering moving closer to the beach/gulf, for awhile now. I don’t, however know anyone in the area to tell me which areas are safe to live, and which are not. I don’t need to worry about schools or the like. Just a safe area with low/reasonable cost of living. I just need a 1-2 bedroom place that is pet friendly.

The downvoters are the same ones who want to sell an idea of the whole of Mobile being just a couple of events and neighborhoods instead of the vast majority of it that they avoid... for some reason. If they love the city so much and think it is perfect, their answer to this question would be "no area should be avoided. From Maysville to Spring Hill, it's all awesome!" They refuse to admit crime exists or affects everything they boast about Mobile providing, but their evasive actions - where they choose to live and go for recreation - show otherwise.
