Where’s the best climate in Alabama? Used to travel to Mobile and the Humidity was horrible, as was the crime rate.

Humidity is high for the whole state, just like the rest of the deep South. Stay away from Mobile, Montgomery, and Birmingham - all majority black cities with dysfunctional city governments and high crime rates.
The Huntsville area is very nice.
I don't think that you want to go farther south than Birmingham. The northern part of the state is, of course, a little cooler than the southern part. Both are subject to the South's heat and bad humidity in the summer (hell, it's hot most everywhere in North America in the summer), but you will find that the winters are mild, really mild, in comparison to, say New York, and the springs and autumns are downright beautiful.
As a bonus, spring comes early in Alabama, in March, while the rest of the non-Dixie states shiver!
P.S., I agree with you concerning Mobile. It's hot and humid there much longer than the rest of the state.
