Enterprise, Alabama

Enterprise is a city in southeastern Alabama. It is adjacent to Fort Rucker, considered the home of United States Army Aviation.

The city is also known for an unusual monument: the Boll Weevil Monument. In the 1910's the boll weevil (an invasive pest beetle) was destroying the cotton crop (a major agricultural crop in the South); some farmers saw this as a chance to diversify into other crops (such as peanuts), which proved to be a financial success. On December 11, 1919, the town erected the monument to the pest which showed that people can adjust in the face of adversity.

United States Senator Katie Britt is a native of Enterprise.
