Forty Strongest U.S. Metro Economies: Employment and Economic Muscle - BusinessWeek
No mention of Huntsville at all, although plenty of Southern metros listed.

Although, according to this http://www.businessweek.com/ap/financialnews/D9BC9LDO0.htm (broken link), Madison County had the lowest unemployment rate in Alabama.

Is Huntsville one of the largest 100 metros?

"The Brookings Institution ranked the 100 largest metros..."

I should think Huntsville would have made it but maybe the "largest" left Huntsville out?

I was about to say because I know that Huntsville is way better off than Baton Rouge, right?

So, what does it matter if Huntsville made the list or not? I am just sick to death of all these stupid lists. Seems like at least one new category is invented every week by some magazine trying to boost sales.

Table of United States Metropolitan Statistical Areas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Huntsville is 127, so not even considered for this list.

Speaking of stupid lists, at least we didn't make the list of the cities with the ugliest men in them...but, then again, I'm guessing they didn't see me.
