A temperate Southern climate
Fayette has a population of 5,000 and is the county seat of Fayette County (population 17,000). The county is located in the northwest-central section of the state. The county was named for Gen. Lafayette who was touring Alabama at the time of the county's formation.
Fayette, located at the foot of the Appalachian mountain range enjoys a temperate Southern climate, plenty of fresh air and clean water, and folks who understand the value of hard work. It's an unbeatable combination, of which they are justifiably proud. Fayette also takes pride in the fact that it is a community with strong interest in the Arts, Education and Athletics.
