If Alabama had hamlets, Mooresville would be its poster child.

The town, which looks more like a village, sits tucked behind the Wheeler Wildlife Refuge, right off I-565, between Decatur and Huntsville. It is just out of earshot of traffic, and you know you’re there when you arrive at the split wood fence and block-letter sign.

“We wanted it to feel like you know you’re in Mooresville,” says former mayor Margaret-Ann Crumlish of the fence. “It’s like we put a little hug around town.”
