What it’s like
The place. Five Points is a small town in Chambers County, Alabama. Its streets are quiet and its population is small enough that neighbors tend to know one another. Across the county, most homes are lived in by their owners, and the surrounding countryside is shaped by rivers and creeks.
Work. Residents work in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, and in restaurants, hotels and entertainment. Across Chambers County, job numbers rose a little in the most recent year, and unemployment has held steady. Fewer adults hold a four-year degree here than in most of the country.
Things to do. Horseshoe Bend National Military Park, an archaeological site, is one of the best known places in the wider region and lies a longer drive away. Jordan–Hare Stadium, a stadium, is also a longer drive off. Wehadkee Creek, a river, is a short drive away and is the closest place to enjoy the water.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Five Points’ census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively low. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Chambers County and the LaGrange, GA-AL metro.
