Helena, AL Apartments for Rent

Located at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, Helena combines historic charm with contemporary living, just 20 miles south of Birmingham. This Birmingham suburb features the scenic Old Town district, where historic 19th-century buildings line Buck Creek and Lake Davidson. The community of 21,500 residents enjoys outdoor spaces like Joe Tucker Park and Cahaba Lily Park, while the Old Town Amphitheater hosts seasonal events throughout the year.

Helena's location offers convenient access to major employment areas via I-65 (3 miles east) and I-459 (9 miles north). The area features natural attractions including the Cahaba River and Buck Creek, popular for outdoor recreation. Local events like the Buck Creek Festival and Summer Sundown Cinemas take place throughout the year. The community is served by Shelby County School System, with Helena High School established in 2014. Apartment rental rates typically run lower than those in nearby Birmingham.
