Great Schools & Family Atmosphere
Our school systems are among the best in the state, with several award winning institutions. Outside of the classroom provides opportunities for learning and fun, too. Organized sports abound, whether league competitions or individual pursuits. Our charming Southern Main Street communities host fun, annual festivals that are always a hit with families. In Northwest Alabama, you can enjoy some of the best outdoor experiences in the Southeast, from pristine hiking trails in the William Bankhead National Forest and exhilarating kayaking on the Buttahatchee River.
