Well.....iffin you do the math it has nearly twice as many people per sq mile as many of the other counties around it
And most of that overall population in the county is wedged into the Demopolis proper area. It's been that way forever. All concentrated around the river and downtown area. LOL. Demopolis has expanded west some over the years but all that is commercial and probably no more than probably 1000 or so acres, exclusively fronting Hwy 80. No urban sprawl or real estate boom happening in Marengo County. It's far from fragmented and outside of Demopolis, it's like time has stood still. Thomaston, Linden, Dayton, Old Spring Hill, Dixons Mills, Sweetwater, all drying up and blowing away. There's less now, in all those areas, than there was back in the 80s and 90s. Try again.
