Opp is a compact, friendly lakeside town centered on Frank Jackson State Park and its 1,000‑acre Lake Jackson, so multi‑week assignments feel more like a relaxed outdoor escape—fishing, boating, easy walking trails, picnic spots and a tight‑knit community make it easy to recharge between shifts.
If you want more dining, shopping or medical options, Andalusia (~15 miles), Enterprise (~26 miles) and Dothan (~57 miles) are an easy drive and provide larger hospitals, chain restaurants, theaters and regional events to mix into your downtime.
