What it’s like
The place. Grand Junction is a very small town in Hardeman County in western Tennessee. Household incomes here run well above the county's, while homes are valued at a modest level. Few adults hold a four-year degree, and nobody in the town works from home.
Work. Residents work mostly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, and in transport, warehouses and utilities. Across Hardeman County, the largest workplaces include TK Elevator Middleton MFG, which makes elevators and moving stairways, Hardeman County Schools, and Kilgore Flares Co, a pyrotechnics maker. Unemployment across the county is close to where it stood a year ago, and the county has fewer jobs than it did the year before.
Things to do. Davis' Mills Battle Site, an archaeological site, is a short drive away. A longer drive brings you to the Wolf River, and to Holly Springs National Forest, a protected area with room to walk and look around. Winters are cool, with January the coldest month, and summers are hot, with July the warmest. Rain and melted snow fall steadily through the year.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Grand Junction’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. 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 Hardeman County and the Memphis, TN-MS-AR metro.
