How City Records Work in Alabama

Cities in Alabama do not keep most public records. Property deeds, marriage licenses, court cases, and voter rolls are stored at the county level. When you search for someone who lives in Birmingham, you go to Jefferson County. For someone in Mobile, you search Mobile County records.

Some cities have their own municipal court for traffic tickets and minor offenses. But those records also flow into the state court system. The Alacourt ACCESS database covers all courts including municipal courts in Alabama. So you can search there for any court records in any city.

City governments do keep some records that might help with people searches. Business licenses, permit records, and FOIA requests go through the city. Some cities have online portals for public records requests. But for most White Pages type searches, you will use county or state resources in Alabama.
