  • Trulia User

  • Stangoffjr

  • Lesleyannsmits
    "It’s college kids. It takes 10-12 minutes to walk to very central places but it’s college kid area. I love to walk so the walk is nice, but construction is always there and the price of every day things are marked up. I do love 12th Street-it’s slightly calmer and than the Other streets. "
  • Llay180

  • Lesleyannsmits

  • Leah M.
    "great location to avoid traffic in a college town and still have access to plenty of grocery and restaurant options"
  • Lex

  • Lex
    "It’s okay unless it’s 7am, 3pm, 5pm, and 11pm. During those times, traffic is the worst. Any other time you should be okay. "
  • Willmarshall35

  • Jemeka H.
    "We don’t have many gated areas and it’ll be dangerous to keep dogs and children in the same enviornment. "
  • Perry D. H.
    "I grew up in this neighborhood and now live here with my husband and two kids. It’s always been an area that’s great for families. The schools are less than 5 minutes away and the golf course is great to walk on. People even fish in the ponds. "
  • Nmunderwood79
    "I’ve lived here since 95 and watched this community grow! It’s quiet and the neighbors look out for each other "

  • MaudE
    "I have owned a house here for over 20 years. I keep an apartment in it, and rent out the other spaces. Druid City Historic District, beautiful old houses and quiet safe streets. People are friendly but not nosey. Perfect location, 15 min walk to UA football games, 5 min walk to Government Plaza. Amphitheater, River Market, all the downtown restaurants and bars nearby. Queen City has joined UA campus, downtown, and river commerce for the nearly 200 years Tuscaloosa has been here."
  • Zaphod Beeblebrox
    "A bunch of very ignorant people live here. They're so primitive they think digital watches are a pretty neat thing."
  • Kelliewalsh1212
    "The University fo Alabama is pretty cool. It’s loud, but fun. I have grown out of it. Great for when you are in college"
