What Are People From Montgomery Called?

About Montgomery

Montgomery is the capital of Alabama and sits on the Alabama River in the central part of the state. It became the seat of state government in 1846, and it is often called the 'Cradle of the Confederacy' because the Confederate States of America were formed there in early 1861 and the city served as their first capital. Montgomery also played a central role in the Civil Rights Movement: the 1955–56 Montgomery Bus Boycott helped launch national efforts against segregation, and the 1965 Selma to Montgomery march ended at the state capitol. Today the city is home to Maxwell Air Force Base and Air University, and its economy rests on government, education, and the military. Residents, known as Montgomeryans, live in a city where a rich civic history sits alongside a growing modern economy.
