Though it has maintained a rural feel for centuries, Hazel Green is a growing community 15 miles north of Huntsville. With home prices $100,000 below the average in Madison County, the neighborhood continues to provide a lower-cost alternative to nearby suburbs. This factor is especially important to those moving from out of state for job opportunities in the city. “There’s a good mix of people buying there right now. A lot of people are coming from all over the United States, and a lot of people seem to be from California,” explains David Ali of Capstone Realty, an agent with many sales in the neighborhood and a resident of Madison County.
