Birmingham

Birmingham has a varied and rugged topography shaped by the nearby Appalachian foothills. The city sits at an average elevation of around 600 feet (183 meters), though it is surrounded by more dramatic terrain that rises higher to 1,000 feet (305 meters) in some areas, particularly to the south and east​. The landscape is marked by steep ridges and deep valleys, offering a unique mix of rolling hills and sharp inclines, characteristic of the Southern Appalachian region. These elevations create a mix of urban and natural landscapes, with the city's core lying in the broader valley while areas like Red Mountain rise sharply to the south.
