The Rosedale community is one of three that came together to become the city of Homewood. It is located along the northern edge of Homewood, where its city limits meet Birmingham's, between U.S. Highway 31 and B.M. Montgomery Street. The majority of the population of Rosedale is and always has been African-American.
A significant number of houses in the neighborhood were lost during the 1950's with the construction of Robins Drive (now named Rosedale Drive), which links 18th Street South with the Highway 31/Highway 280 interchange. The neighborhood was also bisected by 18th Street as it was expanded to multiple lanes.
As of 2006, the city of Homewood is working on plans to revitalize the neighborhood.
