Default Grand Lake

I was surfing the web and saw this large sized subdivision in the Parkway area. Because of jobs, subdivisions like these are being built all over the area.

Huntsville may lose population as people in Huntsville move to California with their Huntsville equity to buy California homes the prices of which have fallen (and are falling) like a lead zeppelin.

I feel, after moving from an area with a very unstable economy, that Huntsville is pretty secure. If I lost my job today, I don't think I would have any problems finding another one locally.

I pray to God that won't happen! Huntsville has come so far for it to lose population. I hope it gain population. I don't think Huntsville will lose any population soon; I may be dead and gone before this happen!

I can't believe you said that, Charles!

I do hope Alabama loses some exclamation points during this recession. We apparently have too many.
