Dominated in the past by the cotton and railroad industries, Athens, AL today is part of the high-tech Huntsville metro area and a thoroughly modern city. While many residents commute to aerospace jobs in Huntsville, others are employed by the local Athens State University or manufacturing jobs. After work, they might enjoy the large parks system or fishing in Wheeler Lake. Every summer, the local “Grease Fest” is celebrated with toga-wearing residents indulging in any manner of fried foods.
