Coker, AL Overview

Just eight miles west of Tuscaloosa on U.S. Highway 82, the small town of Coker was first established in 1900 but incorporated in 1999 as one of the county's newest municipalities.  The incorporation reflects the proud spirit of this close-knit community, where residents were concerned that Coker would be annexed by Northport or Tuscaloosa as a result of suburban sprawl.  Coker is actually located west of Newport, which is west of Tuscaloosa.  Newcomers will find the best of all worlds in Coker, where the chirp of crickets and the call of native birds replace the din of urban traffic.  At the same time, the world-class cultural, healthcare, educational, and entertainment attractions in Tuscaloosa are only minutes from home.  Although Coker is destined to grow along with its metropolitan neighbors, the town intends to protect its quality of life and rural charm.

Climate and Weather

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
