East Montgomery/Taylor Road

The East Montgomery & Taylor Road Corridor is one of the most active and wide-ranging areas in the Montgomery market, offering everything from established neighborhoods and golf course communities to major retail, dining, recreation, and cultural attractions.

Centered around the 36117 zip code and parts of 36116, this area includes a broad mix of home styles, price points, and neighborhood personalities. Buyers will find everything from townhomes and established family neighborhoods to custom homes, estate properties, and golf course living in communities like Wynlakes and Arrowhead.

One of the area’s biggest advantages is accessibility. With quick connections to Interstate 85, Atlanta Highway, Taylor Road, and Vaughn Road, residents can easily reach downtown Montgomery, EastChase, Pike Road, Maxwell Air Force Base, and much of the surrounding River Region.

This part of Montgomery has become a central hub for shopping, dining, entertainment, and community activity. EastChase continues to drive growth with retail and restaurants, while established corridors near Atlanta Highway and Eastdale remain important commercial centers for the city.

The area is also home to several of Montgomery’s most recognizable community destinations, including Blount Cultural Park, the Alabama Shakespeare Festival, and the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts. These venues regularly host festivals, performances, community events, and outdoor activities that draw visitors from across the River Region. Auburn University at Montgomery, Frazer Church, and multiple youth sports complexes—including AUM, Buddy Watson, and Montgomery American—also contribute to the area’s active, family-centered atmosphere.

For many buyers, East Montgomery offers a practical balance of convenience and lifestyle. Shopping, schools, dining, parks, churches, youth sports, and commuter access are all close by, making the area appealing to people in many different stages of life.

One of the defining characteristics of East Montgomery is its variety. Some neighborhoods feel quiet and established, while others continue to see new growth and development. That diversity gives buyers the flexibility to find a home and community that truly fit their lifestyle, priorities, and long-term goals.
