Downtown Tuscaloosa was somewhat of a let down to me. They have some nice shops and restaurants but nothing spectacular like in Athens, GA or Austin, Tx. Seemed pretty boring to me. [View Full Report]

Some of the neighborhoods off the stadium-side of campus are a bit sketchy, but most of the areas are fine - charming, even. [View Full Report]

Tuscaloosa is a nice little city. Lots of little shops and restaurants. Certainly not a big city like nashville or atlanta, but it was nice. [View Full Report]

The Strip is right off campus and has a great variety of restuarants, everything from quaint cafes to BBQ to Japanese to Greek to Italian. You name it, they got it! [View Full Report]
