Saks, AL is a quiet, unincorporated community of approximately 9,500 residents located just north of Anniston. Historically significant due to its proximity to the former Fort McClellan, Saks experienced a population boom during World War II but has seen a gradual decline since the base closed in 1999. Despite this, the area remains attractive for its low cost of living and highly rated schools within the Calhoun County Schools system. Housing options in Saks primarily consist of split-level homes due to the hilly terrain, with traditional, Craftsman, and ranch-style houses also available. The community enjoys a variety of things to do, including visits to LaGarde Park, Longleaf Botanical Gardens, and the Calhoun County Sports Complex. Local farms, such as Redbird Willow Farm, offer unique animal experiences. For entertainment, the Saks Community Center and the Anniston Museum provide cultural activities, while the Happy Hour Comedy Club hosts karaoke and open mic nights. Although Saks lacks extensive shopping and dining options, residents can find big box stores and fast food chains at the McClellan Shopping Center and nearby Anniston Plaza. Public transit is available through the East Alabama Regional Planning and Development Commission, connecting Saks to essential services and the Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport, 62 miles away. The area is safer than the national average, with lower rates of violent and property crimes. However, environmental risks include potential wildfires and flooding, along with elevated pollution levels from past chemical warfare training at Fort McClellan, though recent reports indicate no serious health risks.
On average, homes in Saks, AL sell after 44 days on the market compared to the national average of 70 days. The median sale price for homes in Saks, AL over the last 12 months is $155,500, down 1% from the median home sale price over the previous 12 months.
