Caution

Overall safety score

“Go with care. Oakhurst is a quiet, predominantly working-class residential neighborhood in Birmingham with limited reasons for typical tourists to visit. While it does not experience the intense violent crime rates seen in the city's most distressed corridors, property crime and surrounding neighborhood spillover require standard situational awareness.”

About the area

Quiet / ResidentialCar-DependentWorking-ClassWooded

Oakhurst is an understated, mid-century residential neighborhood in southwest Birmingham characterized by modest single-family homes and wooded hills. It offers a calm community setting, though commercial amenities and cultural attractions are largely situated in neighboring districts.

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.
