World Atlas recognizes Fairhope
WorldAtlas named Fairhope among its 8 Best Places to Live in the Southern U.S. in 2024, based largely on its aesthetics and amenities, but also on its schools, resources and culture.
“This quaint resort town ranks in the top ten in public schools and is one of the best places to retire, according to the US Census. Historic homes and oak-lined streets are plentiful, and museums like the Fairhope Museum of History highlight the town’s beginnings and growth. This is a small, picturesque town with a low crime rate and minimal tax rates that is popular among retirees and young people alike.”
