Go, stay aware

Overall safety score

“Go with care, though primarily for outdoor recreation rather than traditional tourism. Maxine is a quiet, sparsely populated rural community in western Jefferson County with very low violent crime compared to urban Bessemer. The main safety considerations here stem from secluded roads, limited street lighting, and sparse emergency services rather than street crime.”

About the area

RuralWooded & SecludedRiverfrontCar-Dependent

Maxine is an unincorporated, heavily wooded rural locality situated along the Locust Fork of the Black Warrior River west of Bessemer. Formerly an active coal mining outpost, the area is now characterized by sprawling properties, river camps, and scenic river bluffs. Visitors generally pass through for fishing, boating, or exploring rural Jefferson County backroads.

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.
