Nestled in the heart of east central Alabama, Alexander City is home to Russell Lands On Lake Martin. With a population of only 16,000 residents, it maintains a simple, small-town charm that provides the ideal setting for families to live and play. The city boasts an exceptional public school system from lower through community college levels, as well active churches, outstanding health services and a variety of shopping, dining and entertainment. Its location near major interstates offers easy access to other larger cities, although with beautiful Lake Martin nearby, few ever feel the need to leave.

The official name is Alexander City, but many of the locals call this remarkable small town Alex City for short.
