City - Clay

A quaint suburb in north-central Alabama, Clay sits just 20 miles northeast of Birmingham. This commuter-friendly small town offers easy access to Interstate 59, and many residents enjoy a short commute into the city for work or play. Locals enjoy Clay’s proximity to major outdoor recreational opportunities at expansive sites like the Turkey Creek Nature Preserve, the Talladega National Forest, and the Bankhead National Forest.

Although these vast forests and preserves are a major allure to the area, Clay offers its own neighborhood parks for outdoor recreation as well. Cosby Lake Park features a fishing lake, paved trails, and scenic picnicking spots. Families flock to this suburb for its great public schools like Clay Elementary and its close-knit community. Clay is mainly residential, offering affordable apartments and houses for rent, but there are several small businesses spread throughout town, including restaurants and services.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
