Baldwin County, Alabama
Baldwin County is Alabama’s largest by area. It’s on the Gulf Coast, east of Mobile. Beach time! Gulf Shores and Orange Beach draw tourists like seagulls to a dropped sandwich.
The county’s been around since 1809, named after a Georgia senator. Fairhope, on Mobile Bay, has a quirky history as a utopian colony. Today, Baldwin’s population is booming.
Farms and forests cover much of the inland area. The USS Alabama battleship is just a short drive away in Mobile. Watch out for alligators if you’re exploring the backwaters.
