Madison - Team Nemec

Madison is a city located primarily in Madison County, near the northern border of the U.S. state of Alabama. Madison extends west into neighboring Limestone County. The city is included in the Huntsville Metropolitan Area, the second-largest in the state, and is also included in the merged Huntsville-Decatur Combined Statistical Area. As of the 2020 census, the population of the city was 56,933,[2] up from 42,938 at the 2010 census. Madison is bordered by Huntsville on nearly all sides with some small unincorporated lands within and around Madison in Madison and Limestone Counties.

Madison was mostly a small city for many years until Redstone Arsenal was established nearby, which attracted many people to the area for jobs. This rapidly increased the city’s population and stimulated economic growth. Madison is now the second-largest city north of the Tennessee River, behind only neighboring Huntsville. Many of Madison’s residents work in Research Park or the Redstone Arsenal. Madison has been one of the fastest-growing of the top 10 cities in Alabama and it is one of the wealthiest cities on average.
