Highland View - Unclaimed

Selma, Valley Grande, Selmont-West Selmont, and the nearby areas of Augustin, Casey, Old Town, Perryville, and Potter sit in Alabama’s Black Belt, with the Alabama River shaping the landscape and warm, humid summers and mild winters. Selma’s Edmund Pettus Bridge and historic downtown reflect the city’s pivotal role in the civil rights movement; the National Voting Rights Museum and Institute adds a local history stop. Riverfront views and outdoor recreation are part of the setting, while parks and neighborhood green spaces offer room to stroll or play. Dining and coffee options are found around town, alongside everyday shops and local services; nightlife is generally low-key. Getting around is easiest by car, with regional roads connecting the communities and some destinations spread out. The area pairs a strong historical identity with a relaxed, small-city pace.
