Athens offers an award-winning public school system and access to several state universities. Athens State University, established in 1822, is Alabama's oldest institution of higher learning.

While Athens has an agricultural history, in recent years Athens has attracted major industry that has diversified the population.  With all the diversification Athens has to offer, no wonder Athens is truly a city of Southern Splendor.
