As the
"City of Friends",
Ashland is proud of its small town atmosphere and offers many features found
in much larger areas.
Incorporated
in 1871, the City of Ashland is located in east central Alabama just minutes
from the recreation areas of Mt. Cheaha and the Talladega National forest.
Ashland's community spirit is seen at all walks of life: from excellent public
schools to a newly remodeled library, as well as a community hospital, nursing home
and, senior center. Ashland supports a very active county-wide Arts League and
offers churches of many denominations.
Local
industries include Tru-Wood Cabinets, Tyson Foods, and Wellborn Cabinets
located just outside the city as well as the Honda plant located in nearby
Lincoln.
