Ozark, AL 112 Apartments for Rent

Some pretty famous people have called Ozark home! At some point in its history, Ozark has housed football player Larry Donnell, boxing champ Wilbur Jackson, and NFL player Josh Savage.

Ozark wasn't always known as Ozark. In fact, the name of the town was originally Merricks, named after John Merrick Sr., a veteran of the revolutionary war. That was in 1882. Sometime after the name was changed to Woodshop, and then in 1855, the town residents decided they didn't like the name and requested it be changed to Ozark. It's been that way ever since. Don't worry; your town name won't be changing again if you rent an apartment in Ozark. The city has firmly cemented its identity and community, and it's a lovely historic town situated right in the middle of rural Alabama. If you want to have an idyllic country life, this is your place. You can enjoy hills, rivers, lakes, and trees, along with a quaint country town if you end up in an apartment for rent in Ozark.
