What it’s like
The place. Centertown is a very small town in Warren County, Tennessee, with a small population at the latest census. Homes here are typically valued below what many Americans pay, and the county's household incomes sit below the national picture. Winters are cool, with a little snow most years, and summers are hot, with plenty of rain and melted snow across the year.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with manufacturing, shops and restaurants and hotels also common. Across Warren County, the largest workplaces include Warren County Schools, Bridgestone Americas and Ascension St. Thomas River Park. Fewer adults here hold a four-year degree than across the country, the typical commute is a long one, and few people work from home.
Things to do. Burgess Falls is a waterfall, and Rock Island State Park is another, both a longer drive away. Old Stone Fort, an archaeological site, is also a longer drive away. Cumberland Caverns, a tourist attraction, is a longer drive as well.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Centertown’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 Warren County and the McMinnville, TN metro.
