Smithfield Estates Homes for Rent

Smithfield Estates, located about 6 miles northwest of downtown Birmingham, is a resilient residential community rebuilt after the 2011 tornado. The neighborhood features a mix of older Split-Levels, Bi-Levels, and ranch-style homes, with newer Craftsman-influenced houses in a subdivision along Clemon Drive. Home prices range from under $100,000 for fixer-uppers to the upper $200,000s for move-in ready properties. While some streets have paved sidewalks, many do not, yet the quiet streets make for pleasant strolls. The area has a crime score lower than the national average. Smithfield Estates Park offers a playground, basketball court, and pavilion, while nearby One Pratt Park features walking paths, playgrounds, a splash pad, and an outdoor amphitheater. Shopping and dining options are plentiful along Highway 78, with stores like Piggly Wiggly, Family Dollar, and Walmart Supercenter, and eateries such as Jasmine’s Cafe and Niki’s West. The neighborhood is car-dependent, with access to Highway 78 and Interstates 22 and 65, and public transit available in nearby North Pratt. Smithfield Estates is close to amenities like Princeton Baptist Medical Center, Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport, and houses of worship including Bethel Baptist Church.
