Warrior is a city in Jefferson and Blount counties in the U.S. state of Alabama. At the 2010 census the population was 3,176. It is a northern suburb of Birmingham.

The city takes its name from the Warrior coal fields, which J. T. Pierce opened in 1872 in the vicinity. The coal fields were named, in turn, after the Black Warrior River that drains them. The town, which was built on a spur of the L & N Railroad, was originally Warrior Station. The Warrior Post Office (35180) was established in 1872.
