General Information

The largest city in the state of Alabama, Birmingham is a thriving southern center for business, banking, and higher education. A unique and historic city, Birmingham was originally established as an industrial center that focused on mining and railroading. Charter a private jet here and enter a world of history and culture as rich as the land.

Due to the large mineral deposits near the city, iron and steel production were once primary industries in Birmingham City. Known as the Magic City due to its fast growth, Birmingham was actually named after Birmingham, England, the UK’s industrial center, as many of Birmingham’s original settlers were British. Today, Birmingham is home to a number of corporations as well as well-known institutions of higher education including the:

  • University of Alabama at Birmingham
  • University of Alabama School of Medicine
