The cost of living is reasonable and there are plenty of job opportunities in the nearby cities of Huntsville and Birmingham."
- From "Mary": "I moved to Guntersville from a big city, seeking a slower pace of life. While I do enjoy the peacefulness and natural beauty of this place, I have to say that there isn't much to do here. The lack of diversity is also something to consider before moving here."

In general the entire Marshall County is just a wonderful place with outstanding schools and athletic programs.Housing is very inexpensive and if you are over 65 there are no real estate taxes , try to find that anywhere
