Why you'd want to live in Gulf Shores
Gulf Shores is nestled along the Alabama Gulf Coast's 32 miles of sugar-white sand beaches. This coastal city is home to just over 15,000 full time residents who live across its 28 square miles. While the local shoreline is overflowing with American history at nearby Historic Fort Morgan, Gulf Shores wasn't incorporated as a town until 1957 and remains a relative youngster budding with opportunity. The local tourism economy injects more than $7.3 billion in visitor spending annually and is the catalyst behind many wildly successful businesses like Saunders Yachtworks and Lucy Buffett's LuLu's Restaurant. In a nutshell, Gulf Shores blends a unique combination of one America's most award-winning coastlines and family-friendly communities with a local economy that is thriving like never before.
