Lots of high end apartments here, depending on where you'd like to live. The best thing is make a weekend 'apartment-hunting trip' here (you're only 90 minutes drive away) and check out several places to see which one suits you. |

By apt., I assume that means you'll rent rather than buy. In which case re-sale / investment value is irrelevant and being alone means schools, children's activities, etc are also irrelevant. Thus one might assume what is important to you will be your commute and things to do as single. If true, I suggest you start looking near your place of employment with an eye toward downtown Huntsville (5 Points is very popular) and Bridge Street. |

There is manufacturing beyond Huntsville and Madison, believe it or not.
In Decatur, 3M, Daikin, Nucor, United Launch Alliance (a partnership of Boeing and Lockheed Martin), Eaton, General Electric, Wayne Farms, Del Monte Foods, Willo Products, Worthington Steel, Monarch Steel, Feralloy....I can name more, if you like.
Yes, things are slow. But they're picking up.
