Pleasant Grove, Alabama
Pleasant Grove is a city in western Jefferson County, Alabama, United States. It is part of the Birmingham metropolitan area. The population was 9,544 at the 2020 census. History It was established in 1889 but incorporated as a city on January 16, 1934. The incorporation came about by reason of a rather unusual circumstance. The town sits on land honeycombed by coal mines. For many years, the residents had relied on water wells for their water supply.

At this time the incorporation became a realit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
