Our area is famous for its prolific azaleas which delight with a spectacular show of color every March.  That's why we are on Mobile's famous "Azalea Trail"!  There are flowering trees and plantings blooming in the Heights, all year 'round.   Examples are camellias and cherry trees in winter, azaleas and magnolia trees in spring, crape myrtles in summer, and calla lilies and spider lilies in fall.

Jackson Heights is known for its old growth trees and hedges, which provide privacy as well as beauty.

The Heights is most famous for its abundance of tall, Southern longleaf pines.  Shiny pine needles in the treetops, glittering in the sun, provide a sparkling green canopy 80 to 100 feet overhead, and sunlight-dappled lawns underfoot.  This gives the Heights a distinctive look unrivaled by newer developments.

Live oaks, water oaks, cherry trees and Bradford pear trees are also plentiful here.

Jackson Heights is also known for its large, estate-sized lots which boast expansive front and/or rear lawns.  Most lots are at least one acre.  Some are up to 3 acres.

Enjoy your own private forest or meadow on your land.  Take a mini-vacation just by stepping into your own backyard.

Our aesthetic elements combine to give the neighborhood a country-in-the-city or parkland feel, which is increasingly rare in this age of zero lot lines, concrete-covered parking-lot front yards, nearly-treeless yards and streets, and suburban overdevelopment in general.

Many of our current residents were raised in the Heights, and moved back to this beautiful area to purchase their own homes and raise their families here.
