SHELBY COUNTY really is the HEART of Alabama!
Yep... Shelby County is located in the geographic center of Alabama. It was founded on February 7, 1818, by an act of the Alabama Territorial General Assembly and named after Isaac Shelby a Revolutionary War Hero. It has over 800 square miles and lands at the end of the Appalachian Mountains. The lush greenery and hills provide dramatic landscapes throughout the county.
Shelby County consists of 14 towns/cities or municipalities with hundreds of subdivisions. Each unique town offers a special trait and a historic monument or marker where the area citizens remember and celebrate its history.
Shelby County has its own public use airport (ICAO: KEET, FAA LID: EET) located four nautical miles (7 km) southeast of the central business district of Alabaster. It is owned by the Shelby County Commission and is situated in the city of Calera.
Shelby County has a long history in agriculture, and since about 1990, it has become an important location for growing soybeans, which has exceeded cotton as the most important crop grown here.
Additionally, Shelby County was the home of an early inland waterway, the Coosa River, and it was also the location of a very early east-west railroad in Alabama that connected Atlanta, Georgia, with locations to its west. Shelby County was also crossed by an early north-south railroad, the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, that connected Louisville, Nashville, Decatur, Birmingham, and Montgomery. You'll see this rail history throughout the county with ___ miles of rail running through the county.
In 1980 the Shelby County population was 66,298. And over the past 40 years, it has grown by almost 240% to 223,024 according to the 2020 census. When you experience this type of growth in population, you also must experience significant growth in housing (real estate). I mean, all these people need a place to live, right?! In the 1980’s we saw the majority of growth on the northern side of the county County, but that transitioned in the mid to late 1990s as more people discovered the estate lots, less traffic, and the slower pace offered in the southern section of the county.
If you are already a resident of Shelby County, congratulation!. You are well aware of the growth happening all over. If you are not a current resident of Shelby County and are interested in all the buzz, give us a call. We’d love to show you around and share with you about the GOOD LIFE offered here in Shelby County Alabama.
