Alabama's Largest Unincorporated Community
Tillmans Corner traces to the 1840s as a farming and sawmilling settlement first called Red Bank, later renamed for landowner William J. Tillman; it grew into the largest census-designated place in Alabama without ever incorporating. Its housing spans several postwar building eras, all sitting on the same low coastal-plain terrain shared across Mobile County.
A Corridor of Mixed Ages and Mixed Risk
Because Tillmans Corner grew in stages rather than as one planned development, moisture risk varies significantly block to block -- older homes along the original corridor often need different ventilation attention than newer construction nearby.

Assessment Has to Match the Building's Age
A one-size approach doesn't work on a corridor built across five or six decades -- matching the plan to how and when a specific home was built matters more than a corridor-wide assumption.
