Mountain Brook, Jefferson County
Nine in ten homes are owner-occupied.
Mountain Brook is about 7 minutes from downtown Birmingham, on the Shades Valley side of Red Mountain.
The quickest way over from downtown stays on city streets, and US 280 runs inside the city limits.
Some 22,000 people live here, all of them in Jefferson County.
Robert Jemison Jr. developed it in the 1920s as Mountain Brook Estates, and it incorporated in 1942.
The plan called for estate-sized lots along winding roads, and most of the trees were kept.
Census figures put the median home at 1964, and about four in ten date from the 1950s and 1960s.
About nine in ten homes are owner-occupied, and 85 percent are detached houses.

Houses here sit in a forest setting, with about 92 percent of the city under tree cover.
Shade keeps a roof damp longer, and leaves pile up in valleys and gutters every fall.
English Tudor was a common style for the early homes, and that style runs to steep roofs.
Cherokee Bend came later, from 1963, with about 400 houses built in its first ten years.
On a wooded lot we check for limb damage and clogged valleys before we suggest any work.
