Quiet subdivisions outside Mobile’s city center

Thirteen miles from downtown and less than thirty miles from Dauphin Island, the Westmont provides a quiet neighborhood that’s still connected with the rest of Mobile. “Most people who move out there are trying to get further out from the city,” says Stacey Hastings, a local Realtor who has been selling homes in the area for years. “You’re close to the interstate and eateries. It’s a very convenient area.”

Azalea bushes and ranch-style homes

Lawns of Westmont are often landscaped with mature trees, from oaks to magnolias, or blossoming azaleas, lending to Mobile’s moniker: the Azalea City. Many homes have chain link or wooden privacy fences. Off-street parking is abundant, as many homes have driveways, garages or carports.

Westmont enjoys a cohesive visual design, as most homes are either ranch-style or split level homes. “The houses are reasonably priced. It’s mostly older homes in the neighborhood,” says Hastings. “We don’t see a lot of new builds.” Single-family homes sell for a median of $175,000, making the area less pricey than other neighborhoods in Mobile.
