What it’s like
The place. Allardt is a very small Tennessee town in Fentress County, on the Cumberland Plateau. Winters are cold, with some snow, and summers are warm; rain and melted snow add up to a good deal over the year. Home values here run higher than household incomes across the county might suggest.
Work. Most residents who work do so in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, in manufacturing or in the building trades, and some work from home. Across Fentress County, the largest workplaces include Fentress County Schools, Walmart and Signature Healthcare. Unemployment in the county is low and little changed from a year ago, and the county has added jobs over the past year.
Things to do. The nearest well-known outdoor destination is Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area, a protected area a longer drive away. Sgt. Alvin C. York State Historic Park is another protected area a longer drive away, and Caney Fork is a river that is also a longer drive away. Each makes a day out from town.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Allardt’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively low. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Fentress County.
