About the area

ResidentialHistoricQuietCar-Dependent

Jonesboro is a historic, working-class residential neighborhood located just south of downtown Bessemer in the greater Birmingham metropolitan area. It is characterized by modest mid-century single-family homes, neighborhood churches, and small local commercial pockets.

Scores are safety-driven: recent crime levels and local news, plus Census data on income and poverty, housing, education and household make-up, and access to vehicles, internet and health coverage. Walk and bike scores are shown separately and do not affect the safety score. A guide, not a guarantee. Neighborhood outlines come from official city and US Census boundary data.
