At work they excel, but unfortunately at home many have the same issues as the general populace, over extending themselves wihtt heir money, alcohol, and inconsiderate.

The guy has a record of DUI, which shows a possible alcohol addiction and a complete lack of judgment. 

The urine went through the seams in the laminate and even after we removed all the laminate floors we had to seal the sub floor with an alcohol base paint to eliminate the horrible odor.

I'd like to see the community in a better light, as there are some terrible properties with major drug and alcohol problems next door and surrounding these properties; not even sure I can see a 3% appreciation. 

Something else about these countries further up the list....a lower drinking age and a much higher cultural tendency to daily moderate consumption of alcohol.

Birmingham's greatest addition in the past few years has been....alcohol!!!!  

Firearms, ammo, drugs and alcohol will be the units of trade.

Of course that doesn't include fun money for eating out, cable, alcohol, toys and the like.
