Why Live in Calera

Calera, Alabama, a small city with a rich history dating back to the 1820s, has evolved from a limestone production hub to a growing community with modern amenities. The city has seen significant development since the 1990s, with neatly organized subdivisions and a central commercial corridor. Housing options range from modern craftsman homes in cul-de-sacs to historic Cape Cods and farmhouse-style homes on multi-acre properties. Calera Elementary, part of the highly rated Shelby County School District, is known for its strong STEM program.
