"Reverence for place was central in Warren Manning's approach to developing the residential subdivision of Mountain Brook Estates, south of Birmingham to create a park like setting for suburban living." (LALH Book on Warren H. Manning)This well-heeled city of 20,413 people is affectionately called "The Tiny Kingdom" because of its Tudor-style architecture and well-preserved natural landscape. Minutes from downtown Birmingham, AL, it is a tucked-away haven filled with tons of ordinary people of all ages pretending they are the last of a long line of country-clubbers.

It's easy to move to Paradise aka Mountain Brook when it's snuggled inside a circle of major highways. You definitely want to use an apartment locator to find an apartment or rental house to avoid wasting time looking at properties out of your range, and that means too old, too new or too rich. There are all types of properties, including 3 bedroom houses for rent, scattered around Mountain Brook. Despite making it onto lists of "top earning towns," rents for many well-established buildings accommodate most people's wallets (or credit card limits). Since this is a desirable place to live, you should plan a move well in advance of actually moving. Don't just show up in a moving van, or you risk becoming Mountain Brook's first "street person."
