Residential city neighborhood
A mere 2 miles from Downtown Mobile, the Fisher neighborhood is close to all the action while maintaining a sense of residential hominess. “Fisher is near Downtown, is walking distance to the entertainment district and is on the Mardi Gras parade route,” says Realtor Justin Wilhelmy, who has 15 years of experience in the area and works with IXL Real Estate. From historic houses to new construction, Fisher has houses galore to choose from and an urban lifestyle free of business district bustle.
