Baldwin County September 2021 developments report
It's no secret Baldwin County is growing. If traffic wasn't enough of an indication, the 2020 Census provides the data to prove it. WKRG reported in August that 2020 U.S. Census data ranked Baldwin County aa the 7th fastest-growing metropolitan area in the country and the fastest in the state with a 27.2 percent population increase since 2010.
New construction is booming in order to meet the demands of the more than 230,000 residents that now call Baldwin County home. Each month Baldwin REALTORS® creates a report from government meetings, showing what new developments are in the works in Baldwin County. Below is a brief list of the plans addressed in September 2021.
