"Mobile" sounds contemporary but the community name was actually derived from an Indian tribe, known to the Spanish as "Mauvila." Before that the area was called Fort Charlotte.
Mobile is the seat of Mobile County, on the Mobile River. Its location in the central Gulf Coast makes for a subtropical climate, which consists of mild, wet winters and hot, wet summers. Mobile is also very vulnerable to storm surge from hurricanes, which the area frequently experiences.
Modern Mobile has around 197,000 residents. It is the center of Metropolitan Mobile composed of Mobile and Baldwin counties. The city is the only saltwater port in Alabama and the Port of Mobile is one of the largest ports in the nation in terms of total tonnage.
The book and film 'Forrest Gump' have beautifully captured the South Mobile County fishing village of Bayou La Batre. In the same appreciation, Carl Carmer in 'Stars Fell on Alabama,' said "Mobile stays in the heart, loveliest of cities."
