What it’s like
The place. Logan is a small community in Cullman County, in the north of Alabama. Across the county, most homes are lived in by their owners, and renting is less common than in many parts of the country. Winters bring cold nights and little or no snow, while summers are hot and rain falls steadily through the year.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, or in manufacturing, shops and the building trades. Across the county, unemployment is lower than it was a year earlier, though the number of jobs has barely changed. Few people work from home, and most adults commute to work rather than working from their kitchen tables.
Things to do. The William B. Bankhead National Forest, a protected area, is a longer drive away and offers wooded trails and open country. Lewis Smith Lake, a reservoir, is also a longer drive away and suits those who like water and quiet afternoons. The Cullman County Museum, another longer drive away, tells the story of the county and its people.
