Butler County, Alabama is home to kind folks who take kindly to the area’s enviable rural climate for living, working, and playing.
It’s home to a diverse, strong economic base with employers in agriculture, timber, textiles, manufacturing, healthcare and more. Its low cost of living and high quality of life draws families and retirees alike, and its abundant recreation opportunities across the county make it especially appealing to stay outdoors year round (and all day, for that matter; you can start the morning with hunting and end the day with a round of golf on a world-class course). And when you want in-town conveniences, you can make your way along the camellia-lined streets in Greenville for them all: Shopping, restaurants, and arts and entertainment come alive in a thriving historic downtown district. Choose country living with Raydient Rural in Butler County and you’ll experience firsthand what makes it so amazing.

By US News & World Report 2023 rankings, Alabama places third in the nation in cost of living, and is more than 12% lower than the U.S. Average. A number of factors contribute to that affordability, including a lower cost of housing, favorable property taxes, competitive utility rates, and generally lower costs for groceries, utilities, transportation and healthcare.
The median property tax rate in Butler County, Alabama, is 0.30% -- considerably lower than the statewide average of 0.47% and much lower than the national average of 0.99%. Greenville, the county seat and the county’s largest city, has an average property tax rate of 0.35%, with more rural areas of the county enjoying even lower rates.
In short, it’s perfectly situated. Montgomery, the state capitol rich in cultural attractions, historical landmarks and museums, is a straight-shot hour drive to the northeast out of Greenville. If you want to dip your toes in the sand and warm waters, Gulf Shores is less than three hours away to the southwest down Interstate 65. So, too, is Mobile, if you’re looking to take in everything from the opera to a Mardis Gras parade that features fire-breathing dragons tossing Moon Pies into the crowd.
When you pick Butler County for your next rural retreat, hobby farm or recreation tract, you’re choosing to put serenity, community and prosperity first. Put simply, it’s a great place to live, work and raise a family. All the important stuff of everyday life – like good schools, access to employment opportunities and healthcare, great activities indoors and out – is right here. When you want to venture out from your rural retreat, you’ll find convenient access north to Montgomery and Birmingham and south to Mobile and Gulf Shores on Interstate 65. It’s the kind of place that’s somehow “right in the middle of everything,” yet still “away from it all.”

If you’re looking to “chillax” a bit, you can take in a show or concert at the Ritz Theater, go antiquing downtown or marvel at the most recent colorful entries in the Camellia City Murals Trail. And if you’re looking, more than anything else, for just a great place to stretch out beneath the stars in your own rural retreat, acreage from Raydient Rural will do the trick.
