Living in Historic Magnolia Springs, AlabamaThe lively oak-canopied main street of Magnolia Springs is worth making a special trip to visit, but just picture yourself driving along that and the other well-shaded roads each day. It’s truly a piece of heaven that will make you never want to leave.
This river community is proud of its heritage, lovingly maintaining one of the country’s last remaining mail delivery routes by boat. Yet this newest Alabama town, incorporated in 2006, also holds bragging rights to a gourmet shop and fine dining establishment that rivals those of big cities. The residents here have a way of holding on to quaint customs and old-fashioned values while being surrounded by tremendous growth; modernization here is carefully planned, so as not to disturb the neighborly legacy left by many generations of families.
Just a few miles in any direction from numerous shopping, dining, recreation, education and employment opportunities — and a mere 30 minutes from Alabama’s gorgeous white-sand beaches — Magnolia Springs offers an idyllic lifestyle.
