Living in the friendly city of Fultondale
About 8 miles north of Birmingham, a former mining town is now a small city with suburban streets emphasizing community spaces. “Fultondale is the closest suburb to downtown, with affordable prices,” says Dana Belcher, Realtor with Re/Max on Main, who has nearly 20 years of experience in the industry and is local to the area. “It has all major retailers and restaurants, but Fultondale also has a lot of amenities that encourage outdoor recreation, like Black Creek Park.” Its history is reflected in both the city seal and the railroad track-turned-nature trail that runs roughly along Black Creek. Deemed as the friendly city, locals enjoy open green spaces, easy access to Interstate 65, and essential amenities within reach.

Fultondale was a mining town in the early 1800's and is now a flourishing community.

Hiking trails along Black Creek
Black Creek Park is the main green space in Fultondale. It features several ballparks and walking paths that connect to the city’s 3-mile trail along the Historic Birmingham Mineral Railroad Site, loosely following Black Creek. “The trail is constantly busy. It also leads all the way to Gardendale,” Belcher says. Those looking to head further can continue to the Five Mile Creek Greenway Trail System. The Rails to Trails loop also passes by Fultondale Bark Park, where furry friends can run around off-leash. Next door is Children’s Park, which features a small playground and a covered pavilion for afternoon picnics.
Fultondale park has nice wide walking paths.
