Every distance here runs straight from the office to the Census internal point of the place (U.S. Census Bureau Gazetteer 2025), so driving distances will be longer. Business counts below are published by ZIP code, and each ZIP code covers far more land than the town that shares its name, so every figure carries its ZIP label.

Coker, AL

Coker is a town in Tuscaloosa County about 7 miles west-northwest of the office. ZIP 35452 had 42 employer establishments in 2023, and 71.4 percent of them had fewer than five employees; construction was the largest group, with 14 (U.S. Census Bureau, ZIP Code Business Patterns 2023). The town covers only about 4 percent of that ZIP code's land. The county License Department lists Coker among the towns where a municipal license may be required in addition to the state license.

Brookwood, AL

Brookwood is a city in eastern Tuscaloosa County, about 14 miles from the office. ZIP 35444 had 67 employer establishments in 2023 with 2,966 paid employees; retail trade had 13 establishments and mining and construction 9 each (ZIP Code Business Patterns 2023). The city covers about 5 percent of the ZIP code's land, so these are postal-area figures. Contractors there ask the same equipment and payroll questions covered on our Tuscaloosa, AL page.

Moundville, AL

Moundville is a town that spans Hale County and Tuscaloosa County, about 15 miles south-southwest of the office, so Tuscaloosa County figures do not describe it. ZIP 35474 had 72 employer establishments in 2023, with construction and retail trade tied at 15 each (ZIP Code Business Patterns 2023); the town covers about 2 percent of that ZIP code's land.

Gordo, AL

Gordo is a town in Pickens County, about 21 miles west-northwest of the office and outside Tuscaloosa County. ZIP 35466 had 58 employer establishments in 2023, led by construction and retail trade with 11 each (ZIP Code Business Patterns 2023). Gordo covers about 1 percent of that ZIP code's land. Pickens County registration offices, not Tuscaloosa County's, apply to businesses there.

Holt, Coaling, Vance, Woodstock and Union, AL

Holt, a census-designated place, and Coaling, a city, are in Tuscaloosa County east of the office; neither has its own ZIP-level business count. Vance and Woodstock lie partly in Bibb County and partly in Tuscaloosa County: ZIP 35490 (Vance) had 57 employer establishments in 2023 and ZIP 35188 (Woodstock) had 71 (ZIP Code Business Patterns 2023). Union is a town in Greene County, about 25 miles southwest. Owners in all of these places work with the same University Blvd office as everyone else.

What stays the same in every Tuscaloosa County, AL community

  • Timberford Lenders is a broker, not a lender; lending partners decide and set terms.
  • Every community has access to the same six structures: working capital, term loans, lines of credit, inventory financing, equipment financing and merchant cash advances (not a loan).
  • A first conversation by phone, then documents only when a partner asks for them.
  • Licensing depends on where the business operates: inside a city or town's limits, a municipal license may apply alongside the state license issued through the county.
