About Kinsey

Tucked just north of Dothan, Kinsey is a small Wiregrass community with roots dating back to the late 1800s. Originally named after local postmaster Eliza Kinsey, the area got its start as an old seminary town before settling into the peaceful residential enclave it is today. It offers a relaxed, small-town pace where neighbors enjoy quiet streets and open space while staying close to the conveniences of larger nearby towns.

Living in Kinsey puts you right along U.S. 431, making daily commutes into Dothan, Headland, or Webb quick and painless. Families are zoned for Houston County Schools, while Wallace Community College and Troy University's local campus are an easy drive away for higher education. You also have great weekend spots right in your backyard, including Landmark Park and the Dothan Area Botanical Gardens. It is an appealing option for anyone wanting a quiet home base with fast access to city shopping, dining, and healthcare.
