Thomasville rests among the countryside of southern Alabama, nearly two hours from bigger cities like Montgomery or Mobile. Nearly nine square miles of land make up this charming small town where you’ll find a relaxed residential community. There’s low-lying apartment complexes and single-family homes on offer, all just a few minutes from the character of Thomasville’s downtown area. Locals gather at Los Compadres Tex-Mex and Southern Grounds Coffee Shop, and handle business and errands at the storefronts along U.S. Highway 43.
Thomasville’s location makes for a relaxed, family-oriented way of life. Choctaw National Wildlife Refuge is a few miles west along the Tombigbee River, and there’s natural beauty all around the immediate area.
