south pittsburg, tn

A small, poor, historic town in Tennessee close to the Alabama line. There is at least one traffic light out of four or so on the whole three mile stretch of road that is always out. When they can keep a police force, you'll find them at one end of town or the other. The middle of town is the safest if you're thinking of residing here. Expect to pay high taxes since a past mayor embezzeled money from the town and now they'really trying to make the money back. There are no chain restaurants and nothing to do unless you like cornbread. There's the National Cornbread Festival held in the middle of town during the last weekend in April every year. Yee haw!
