Growing commuter neighborhood north of Huntsville
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.

We moved out of Huntsville in order to live in the "country." In the last nine years, it has really grown up in the area. It is more like the suburbs now instead of the country. The commute into Huntsville is easy. No fiber optic internet out here yet though. Family friendly area.

Hazel Green is your perfect little country town. We are all very personal here and my experience growing up here had been outstanding. There are plenty of opportunities nearby in Tennessee and Huntsville.

I like Hazel Green because it is away from the city and quiet. It's close enough to the city to not feel completely rural. It is definitely not overcrowded which is really nice. You don't feel rushed every time you drive some where. There isn't much traffic either. The schools in Hazel Green are very nice. The high school is very proactive in the community and has really good teachers.

Hazel Green is a quiet and peaceful area, but sometimes you just don't know what to expect. Where I live, there are goats, horses, and ponies that graze across the street. Everything is usually very quiet with nothing but the sound of chirping birds unless a neighbor is mowing his lawn. Everyone around is very pleasant and helpful when it comes to visiting or borrowing anything.
