City and Destination Information
Athens is located in the center of
Northern Alabama 15 miles from the Tennessee State line in historic Limestone
County. The population of Athens is approximately 19,000 people. While Athens
has an agricultural history, in recent years Athens has attracted major industry
that has diversified the population. Education is a source of pride in the
community, with its award-winning public school system and Athens State
University which has been in operation since the 1800's. With all the
diversification Athens has to offer, no wonder Athens is truly a city of
Southern Splendor. Additional information can be found by visiting their website
