Madison County has grown over 11% this decade, after growing 21% between 2000-10. Is this related to the Huntsville space industry? Also, can anybody confirm if a lot of non-white voters are moving here? It looks like in 2000 it was 72% white and in 2010 it was 65.9% white, but I don’t know if this is continuing.
What type of people are moving here? Educated (by Southern standards)? Retirees? Evangelicals? And what industries are driving this growth?

I was looking for information and I found some census data that shows 39% of Madison county adults have a bachelor’s degree. That’s gotta be one of Alabama’s highest.
