  1. A few years ago a high school classmate of mine living in a drivable radius to Huntsville referred to it as "Huntsvegas". I'd never heard that term before, but he said the reason was that there was a thriving prostitution market there. Larger cities of Nashville and Birmingham, just north and south from Huntsville along Highway 65 do not have that reputation.

  2. Huntsville was the NASA hub before the larger NASA operation was moved to Houston. The gradual decline of NASA in Huntsville has led to the gradual decline of the city in several important ways. That might leave capable people left behind looking for ways to make a good living. Despite Huntsville's reputation as one of the most dense collections of PhD's in the world, it's a bit of a cow town with a small population. There is plenty of technology there in the hands of capable people for the purpose of producing child porn.
