Thank you for your interest in Russellville Alabama. We are very proud of our city and feel we have much to offer. We are working hard towards moving our city forward into the new millenium. We know that residents of a community want to feel they are getting a good value for their tax dollars and we strive to give our residents that. Russellville has been very active in working with the State Capitol to bring additional dollars to Russellville and have been quite succesful in that pursuit, bringing in over $4 million for improvements through State and Federal grants. We are also in the process of a $2 million expansion to our airport, 90% of that coming from the FAA.
The Russellville School System ranks as one of the highest in the state. Average ACT composite scores in 2001 were 20.6 and equaled or exceeded state and national averages. Scholarship awards for the 2001 year exceeded $1.25 million.
Crime in Russellville is extremely low, with violent crimes almost non-existent.
We are also taking steps towards the beautification of the downtown area in an effort to enhance local business. And of course, our neighborhoods are well known for their beauty and friendly people.
The Russellville Industrial Development Board is working diligently on bringing more industry and jobs to our great city.
Thanks for your interest in Russellville Alabama. We love it here and I'm sure you will too.
Mayor Johnny Brown |
