Baldwin County residents enjoy a unique lifestyle that includes all the benefits of a small town atmosphere, but with easy access to several metropolitan areas. Our beautiful coastline, sugar-white beaches, farms, hunting lodges and forests make Baldwin County a place for all seasons.

We are fortunate to have some of the finest public, private and parochial schools in the country. For those interested in outdoor sports, our county has it all -golf, deep-sea fishing, sailing, hunting, tennis, biking and more.

Year-round cultural activities include live theater, fine art exhibitions and delightful concert series. From fine dining to fast food, there's a menu to please every palate. Sample fresh seafood, Creole and Southern favorites, innovative café cuisine and ethnic delicacies served by the area's myriad of restaurants.

Baldwin County is one of the fastest growing counties in Alabama. Its rich history and diverse cultures have created a place welcome to all. The county's strength is not only found among the plethora of abundant natural resources, healthy economy or beautiful beaches, but with the people who have carved out a place to live, prosper and grow, while preserving its heritage and breathtaking beauty.

We, as your home builders association, are proud to showcase some of the finest subdivisions and builders in this wonderful place we call home. We hope you will find your home here with us, too.
