How many counties does Alabama have?

Alabama has 67 counties covering 50,650 square miles and roughly 5,086,600 residents. The state was admitted to the Union in 1819 as the 22nd state, and the current county boundaries reflect more than a century of administrative subdivision.

The largest county by land area is Baldwin County at 1,590 square miles, home to about 247,003 residents. The most populous is Jefferson County with approximately 670,680 residents — a density of about 604 people per square mile.

At the other end of the scale, Greene County has only about 7,212 residents.

Alabama’s capital is Montgomery, while the largest city is Huntsville — a common pattern in the United States, where many states placed their capitals in smaller, more central towns rather than their largest commercial hubs.

Two SimpleMapLab studies cover Alabama specifically: the 100-mile radius around Montgomery measures how much of the state lives within 100 miles of its capitol, and the loneliest town in Alabama ranks the state’s most isolated inhabited place. The county-counts blog post puts Alabama’s 67 counties in national context.
