Albita is a small unincorporated community located in the northeastern part of the U.S. state of Louisiana and is part of Morehouse Parish. Located in the Mississippi River Delta Plain, the area's economy is primarily based on agriculture and natural resources, and is surrounded by farmland and forested areas.
Alberta is located at 32°48' N latitude and 91°41' W longitude, approximately 200 kilometers from the state capital of Baton Rouge. The community's population is small, with fewer than 100 permanent residents according to the U.S. Census, and is characterized as a typical rural settlement. The local climate is humid subtropical, with hot, humid summers and mild winters.
The establishment of Alberta was closely tied to the development of the Louisiana Railroad in the late 1800s and served as a regional distribution point for agricultural products. The present-day economy is based on forestry, soybean farming, and animal husbandry, with several family farms scattered around the neighborhood. The community retains some of its early 20th century wood-frame buildings, reflecting the historic character of the rural South.
The community is connected to the cities and towns of Monroe and Vicksburg via Highway 61 and is approximately 50 miles from the Mississippi River Navigation Hub. The area has a rich wetland ecosystem that is an important pathway for migrating birds, and a portion of the land is within the boundaries of the Louisiana Wildlife Management Area.
Note: The closest name to "Albita" that has been verified as actually existing in the state of Louisiana is "Albany", which, if referring to the town, is located in Livingston Parish, part of the Mount St. Eliel region, with a population of about 1,100, and is characterized by tourism in the Angelina National Forest. The above text has been adapted from the common spelling variant "Alberta".
