Huntsville, AL | Area Guide
Every Downtown & Medical District neighborhood on one map and one table: what homes sell for, how old and how big they are, which schools they are zoned for and what is for sale today.
Valley MLS data as of November 1, 2026. Area figures count every listing inside the Downtown & Medical District map outline. Prices are resales only, so new construction does not skew them. By George Lensch, Broker, Wyze Realty.
Downtown & Medical District is the center of Huntsville: the courthouse square, Big Spring Park, the Twickenham and Old Town historic districts, and the medical district around Huntsville Hospital on Governors Drive. Main ZIP code is 35801.

These official areas sit inside Downtown & Medical District. Civic association areas are the City of Huntsville's own neighborhood-association map; local historic districts have design review for exterior work.
Twickenham and Old Town are local historic districts, so most exterior changes, fences, additions and demolition need approval from the Huntsville Historic Preservation Commission before work starts. See the historic districts guide and the City of Huntsville historic preservation page.
11 neighborhoods have their own page here. Prices run from about $292K in Madison Heights to $938K in Twickenham. 6 of them were mostly built before 1980. Start with the map, then use the table to compare.

Median is the median resale price over the last 12 months (* = 3 years, where sales are few). For sale counts homes listed now, with homes under contract in parentheses. "How often" means 1 in that many homes sells each year (where the lot count is known), otherwise resales in 3 years. Schools shows the elementary zone, plus the high school when it is not Huntsville.
