The Alexander City Micropolitan Statistical Area is a micropolitan statistical area that consisted of one county in Alabama, anchored by the city of Alexander City, as defined by the United States Census Bureau. The current area is the second incarnation, with the original area consisting of Tallapoosa County and Coosa County. The original Alexander City Micropolitan Statistical Area was part of the Montgomery–Alexander City Combined Statistical Area.
In 2013, the United States Office of Management and Budget removed the Alexander City micropolitan statistical area from its list of metropolitan and micropolitan areas. Coosa County was added to the Talladega-Sylacauga, AL micropolitan statistical area.[1]
Effective July 2023, the Alexander City Micropolitan Statistical was officially reinstated but consists solely of Tallapoosa County. This reinstated statistical area is part of the Columbus–Auburn–Opelika combined statistical area.[2]
