“The City of Dora is a historic city with big plans. Nestled between Highway 78 and Interstate 22 just across the Jefferson County line in the eastern edge of Walker County, Dora is a 30 – 35 minute commute to downtown Birmingham and excellently positioned to drive to other surrounding larger cities as well. The great location makes Dora attractive to industry, retail, and families looking to move out the larger cities, but remain close to the hub of larger urban areas. According to the 2020 census, Dora’s population grew 13.4% since 2010, making Dora a city on the move. Come grow with us.”
