About Huntsville Alabama
Huntsville is known at Rocket City because the rocket that put a man on the moon was developed right here in Huntsville. You are more likely to meet a rocket scientist at the grocery store here than anywhere else in the world! Huntsville has recently surpassed Birmingham as the largest city in Alabama. We are also honored to have many military families in our community based at Redstone Arsenal as well as a strong presence from the defence industry in Huntsville’s Cummings Research Park. But as with any community, we are supported by many local businesses who provide essential services to the Huntsville area.
