MAKE AN AMAZING PLACE TO WORK EVEN BETTER

TARCOG’s office is located in Huntsville, Alabama, named in 2022 as the best place to live in the country by U.S. News & World Report for its affordability and robust job market, especially in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics fields. And that’s just the heart of TARCOG’s five-county service area. There is undeniable energy all around as word spreads about all northeast Alabama can offer. Each of our member counties, Madison, Marshall, Limestone, Jackson, and DeKalb, has an affordable and unique lifestyle, housing, and recreation options. Of course, we’re proud of TARCOG’s part in creating this momentum, and we’re even more excited to keep it going. We’d love for more like-minded people to join us!
