West Montgomery Homes for Rent

West Montgomery is steeped in Civil Rights history, notably at the City of St. Jude campus, the final campsite of the 1965 Selma-to-Montgomery voting rights march. The neighborhood offers a quieter, country-like living experience close to downtown, characterized by old Southern charm and hospitality. Residents enjoy a strong sense of community, often sharing food and looking out for one another. Housing is more affordable compared to East Montgomery, featuring National-style homes, brick-faced ranch-style houses, and Minimal Traditionals. Maxwell Airforce Base is a significant draw, and the area is expected to grow with industries like Hyundai Motor Manufacturing and Amazon moving in. Attractions such as Montgomery Whitewater provide outdoor activities like hiking, biking, and ziplining. Dining options include Brenda’s Bar-B-Que Pit and Barbara Gail Neighborhood Grille, both known for their delicious, generously portioned meals. Community centers like Hayneville Road Community Center offer recreational opportunities, while parks such as Hayneville Road Park and Diffley Park provide green spaces and playgrounds. Shopping options are limited, with stores like Dollar General and Family Dollar available for quick grocery runs, and larger grocery stores accessible within a short drive. Residents may occasionally hear noise from Maxwell Air Force Base and nearby trains.
