Before settlers moved to the area, it was populated by the Creek Indians of the Upper Towns, who lived along the banks of the Cahaba and its tributaries.To the south, Bibb is bordered by many historical \u201cblack belt\u201d counties, and is known for its recreational opportunities along the Cahaba River and within the Talladega National Forest, Oakmulgee District.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the nineteenth century, Bibb County was a noted iron, coal, and lumber center. Lumber production boomed in the twentieth century and timber products remain a mainstay of today\u2019s economy.Bibb County has a thriving health care community, consisting of a rural hospital, nursing home, attached retirement community, specialty medical clinics, and a physician training program attached to the University of Alabama Birmingham.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00b7 Founding Date: February 7, 1818\u00b7 Area: 626 square miles\u00b7 Population: 22,572 (2016 Census estimate)\u00b7 Major Waterways: Cahaba River, Little Cahaba River\u00b7 Major Highways: U.S. 82\u00b7 County Seat: Centreville\u00b7 Largest City: Brent<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So I hope you like my latest Rural Exploration micro adventure &#8211; Lost in Bibb County, Alabama &#8211; But Saw Some Cool Scenery!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Click here and join me on another micro adventure as I get lost in rural Bibb County, Alabama with my yellow lab!
