A Parent’s Guide to Local Neighborhoods in Huntsville and North Alabama

Huntsville (and all of North Alabama) is a fantastic place to raise a family, but settling into any new town is tricky and sometimes you just want some insider info on where the hotspots are! We at Rocket City Mom are here to help. We asked local parents to give us the 411 on their neighborhood including favorite restaurants (with kids and without), shops, and playgrounds, along with insider tips only a real “local” would know.

Welcome to the Rocket City! Now get out there and have some out of this world fun.
