Alberta City is a neighborhood located in the northeastern area of Tuscaloosa, Alabama, United States. The area is generally defined as encompassing the portions of the city east of U.S. Route 82 (McFarland Boulevard), west of Holt, south of the Black Warrior River and north of Veterans Memorial Parkway.^[1] With its founding in 1912 and much of its early development tracing to the early 20th Century, what is present-day Alberta City was annexed into Tuscaloosa on September 21, 1948.^[2]

The neighborhood is serviced by both Alabama State Route 215 (University Boulevard) and U.S. Route 82 (McFarland Boulevard). Public transportation is provided via public bus serviced by the Tuscaloosa Transit Authority's Holt Route.^[3] Large portions of Alberta City were destroyed in the April 25–28, 2011 tornado outbreak, when a powerful F4 tornado moved across the city of Tuscaloosa.
