Golf in Eight Mile

Eight Mile is a northern Mobile County community in the suburban corridor that has developed north of the port city, named for its distance from the original downtown Mobile settlement. The community participates in the greater Mobile metropolitan market in the residential and commercial landscape north of the city where the rolling pine-forested terrain of the Mobile County coastal plain provides the natural setting for suburban development and the recreational facilities that serve the growing northern Mobile County population. The northern Mobile corridor has seen residential growth as the port city's metropolitan area has expanded, and golf facilities in Eight Mile serve the growing residential population of this urbanizing suburban edge.
