East Limestone County has experienced tremendous growth in the last few years. For example, since the year 2000 the Limestone County Commission has approved 68 new residential subdivisions with 2,342 single family lots, in this area to the west of the Huntsville and Madison city limits. This has of course drawn the attention of both cities, which have annexed 1000’s of acres of East Limestone County in the past year alone.
This is a natural area for the progression of growth as it lies between the city of Athens and Interstate 65 and the cities of Huntsville and Madison. The land is much flatter than the mountain foothills to the east of Huntsville and is well suited for residential Real Estate development. One of the Madison annexed areas of Limestone County will be the home of Madison’s new High School and the city of Huntsville committed to building a new K-8 School and city park as part of its recently approved 5,000 acre Limestone annexation. The unincorporated portion of the area lies within the Limestone County School District and is supported by Creekside Elementary School (k-5) and East Limestone High (6-12).
