About Athens

Athens is the county seat of Limestone County and home to Troy Elmore Realty. With a population around 28,000, it offers a historic downtown square, Athens State University, and a growing restaurant and retail scene. Athens City Schools are well-regarded, and the 25-minute I-65 commute to Huntsville makes it a popular choice for families who want small-town living with big-city job access. Home prices here are substantially lower than comparable Huntsville neighborhoods.
