Visiting Mobile in the near future, advice please?
I am coming to mobile for work and I'm trying to figure out the situation there.
I'm from the northeast, I know nothing about Alabama in general or the mobile area specially, so please forgive my ignorance.
I need to book my travel soon, I want to be somewhere that I can get up and go for a run in the morning, and maybe be able to walk to for a bite or drink after work.
I'm female and Asian American and my friends are freaking me out, I keep telling them I'm not going deep into the country or anything. I just want to be able to do more than sleep and uber back and forth to work.
Is downtown Mobile generally safe for me to explore? It's just a city, right? Safe to run and exercise in the morning? I'm assuming I'll stick out a bit.
Again forgive me for being completely naive, it's a work trip. If I was planning my own visit there and had ample time I'd do as much research as possible before.
