Just North of Shelby County is Tipton County. Established in 1823, this county has big city amenities with small town charm. Currently one of the fastest growing counties in the Mid-South, just over 60,000 people call this part of Western Tennessee home. Here families can enjoy a lower cost of living, several historic sites, and great access to outdoor life.
Between the Mississippi River, Big Hatchie River, Glenn Springs Lake, and the Lower Hatchie Wildlife Refuge there are plenty of places for hunting, fishing, and watching wildlife. There are also several parks, playgrounds, and water parks around for families to enjoy getting outside.
Keep an eye on the city and county calendars for plenty of family friendly community events throughout the year including parades, festivals, and the world’s oldest bar-b-que cooking contest!
If you’re looking for a slower, more peaceful way of living, this could be the place for you!
