A small quaint town surrounded by the mountains and farmlands of Northeast Alabama. Tucked into the Southern Tip of the Tennessee River Valley and the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, Gurley's beautiful scenery, rich history, and potential for opportunity make it the perfect place to call home. With one of the longest histories in Alabama, dedicated to public service and education, the town offers the perfect blend of rural charm and community living. Platted and incorporated in 1890, Gurley has grown to see many changes, we would love to see you be a part of the growth.
