Heathrun Advances, in Decatur, Alabama, takes funding requests by phone and online form from businesses across Morgan County, AL and nearby towns. This page names those places, gives ZIP-level Census business counts where they exist, and explains why a ZIP count is not a town count.
Morgan County, AL at a Glance for Plants, Kitchens and Service Crews
Morgan County, AL had 2,684 employer establishments in 2023 (County Business Patterns), 46.2% with fewer than five employees, and 8,759 businesses without paid employees in 2024 (Nonemployer Statistics).

Trinity, AL, Priceville, AL and Somerville, AL: Small ZIPs Near the Office
Trinity, AL, west of Decatur, AL, sits in Morgan County and Lawrence County; ZIP 35673 had 101 employer establishments in 2023, 54.5% with fewer than five employees (ZIP Code Business Patterns), though Trinity covers only part of that ZIP's land. Priceville, AL, to the southeast, has no ZIP of its own in the Census business files. Somerville, AL's ZIP 35670 had 81 employer establishments, 70.4% of them with fewer than five employees.
Falkville, AL and Eva, AL: South Morgan County, AL ZIPs
Falkville, AL's ZIP 35622 had 75 employer establishments in 2023 and Eva, AL's ZIP 35621 had 41 (ZIP Code Business Patterns). Both ZIPs reach well beyond the town limits, so the counts describe the ZIP, not the town. The American Community Survey (2020-2024) puts 7.3% of employed Falkville, AL residents in their own business, with a margin of error of 3.6 points, too wide to compare closely with the county's 8.7%.
Moulton, AL, Courtland, AL and Town Creek, AL: Lawrence County, AL Neighbors
West of Decatur, AL, Lawrence County, AL towns can send requests the same way. ZIP 35650 (Moulton) had 230 employer establishments in 2023, ZIP 35672 (Town Creek) 54, and ZIP 35618 (Courtland) and ZIP 35643 (Hillsboro) 25 each (ZIP Code Business Patterns). Morgan County, AL figures elsewhere on this site do not describe Lawrence County, AL.
Why Smaller Places Around Decatur, AL Have No Page of Their Own
A town gets its own page here only when the Census data for that town is specific enough to say something useful. For the places above, the ZIP covers far more than the town, or the town is too small for reliable survey figures, so a separate page would repeat county numbers under a new name. Owners in Mooresville, AL, Elkmont, AL or Rogersville, AL can still send a request; the county and industry pages apply to them as context.
How Owners Outside Decatur, AL Reach Heathrun
A Somerville, AL grocer or a Trinity, AL welder calls (256) 376-4693 or fills in the online request, just as a Decatur, AL owner would. The steps are the same wherever the business is: describe the cost, talk through the options, and a funding partner reviews the request.
What Gas Stations, Grocers and Diners Ask First in Morgan County, AL
Owners of fuel stops, groceries and diners ask whether a remodel or new coolers fit a loan or equipment financing, and whether a credit line can carry stock between deliveries. Gas station loans, grocery store loans and restaurant loans answer those questions with county counts.
How Heathrun Handles a Request From Plumbers, HVAC Crews and Landscapers
The request is sorted by what the money buys: a van or a mower goes to equipment financing, parts and payroll between jobs to a credit line or working capital. Heathrun Advances then passes it to funding partners, and the partner reviewing it decides. HVAC and plumbing loans and landscaping equipment financing go further.
