Welcome to

Jackson, Alabama

Jackson is the largest city in Clarke County, nestled among the pine trees of southwest Alabama, about an hour’s drive from Mobile. It was founded in 1816 and named after the seventh president of the United States, Andrew Jackson. The people who live here take pride in the community they’ve developed.

And while Jackson’s rich heritage and small-town charm have been preserved, the city has also grown by leaps and bounds over the past 202 years. Built initially as a “Timber town”, Jackson is now home to many types of industry and commercial development.

 Jackson is a city with a heart and a vision for tomorrow.

The City of Jackson is situated on the banks of the Tombigbee River, making it an ideal location for industry. 

We also have people who know how to work hard and who love their city. If you’re looking for a place that feels like home, Jackson, Alabama, is the perfect destination.

The staff at the Jackson City Hall is second to none. Everyone brings a level of professionalism while demonstrating a caring attitude for the people they serve. 

They have all done their jobs so well for so many years and their experience shows. If you need anything, please don’t hesitate to contact us, and we will be happy to assist you to the best of our ability.

“I could have moved anywhere in the world, but I picked Jackson,” said Jackson Mayor Paul South.
