Right across the river from Tuscaloosa, Northport is a mainly-suburban community that largely escapes much of the frenetic college-town energy surrounding the University of Alabama. The area near the river on Main Avenue features a quaint walking district of shops and cafes, and just a few blocks away Kentuck Park provides a lovely venue for outdoor R&R (Kentuck Festival of the Arts draws big crowds to the park every October). The attractions of Tuscaloosa are quite easily accessible, particularly the Tuscaloosa Amphitheater, University Boulevard, and Bryant-Denny Stadium.
