City - Homewood

Tucked just south of Red Mountain and less than five miles from downtown Birmingham, Homewood is a self-contained Alabama city with its own commercial corridors, distinct neighborhoods, and a strong sense of place. The city covers about eight square miles, and its compact layout means everyday errands, dinner, and a morning walk can all happen within a short distance of home. The Edgewood and West Homewood areas each have their own character, while the stretch along 18th Street serves as the walkable heart of the city. Samford University, a private university founded in 1841 that now enrolls more than 6,000 students, anchors the southern edge of the city and adds energy to the surrounding blocks. Renters in Homewood will find a range of options, from garden-style apartment communities and two-story townhomes to mid-rise buildings and smaller cottage-style units tucked into established residential streets.
