Summer 2011
Welcome to Monroeville, Alabama’s “Literary Capital” and its greatest small town! As a native of Monroeville, I am constantly amazed at the numbers of people who annually visit our small town. Perhaps we have found our niche, not only as a thriving arts community, but also as a place that is always welcoming and friendly. We pride ourselves on our “Southern hospitality.” We encourage you to make yourselves at home, visit our shops, tour our iconic museum, stroll our parks and enjoy the area’s abundant opportunities to engage with nature and enjoy outdoor recreation.

While you are visiting, please consider the many benefits of living in a small town: friendly neighborhoods; no traffic, lines or waits; walkability; pet friendly; healthy lifestyle; many entrepreneurial opportunities; diverse volunteer options; great schools, etc. As a bonus, Monroeville is also home to Alabama Southern Community College, which offers many post secondary education options.
My door is always open at Monroeville City Hall to discuss ways we may work to improve our quality of life. My wife, Cindy, and I look forward to meeting you and to helping you get to know our wonderful community. Please consider Monroeville–Visit, Enjoy, Relax, Renew & Relocate!
Best Regards,
Mike Kennedy
