Hooper City is a neighborhood in the North Birmingham community which lies north of Village Creek and west of I-65. Finley Boulevard is the major east-west corridor through the neighborhood, and 16th Street North crosses the eastern portion, running north-south. The neighborhood includes the Birmingham Farmers Market and the headquarters of the American Cast Iron Pipe Company (ACIPCO),a major employer for which the surrounding community was named.

The neighborhood borders Hooper City to the north, Thomas to the west, East Thomas, Enon Ridge and Evergreen to the south, and the North Birmingham neighborhood to the east. Clayton Park is in the northern end of Acipco-Finley, on 33rd Avenue North.

The Acipco-Finley Neighborhood Association meets on the first Wednesday of each month at Mt Hebron Baptist Church. Art Grayson is the neighborhood president, having succeeded Jackie Floyd Roosley in the 2010 Birmingham neighborhood elections.
