What it’s like
The place. Greenfield is a small city in Weakley County, in the flat farm country of northwest Tennessee. Most homes are lived in by their owners, and the typical home value is modest. Fewer adults hold a four-year degree here than is common across the country, and more residents live below the poverty line than most of the county's households would suggest.
Work. Residents find work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, in manufacturing, in government and in shops. Across Weakley County, the largest workplaces include MTD Products, The University of Tennessee-Martin and Weakley County Schools. The trip to work is a fairly typical one, and very few people work from home.
Things to do. The Obion River and Big Cypress Tree State Park, a protected area, are both a short drive away and suit time outdoors. A longer drive brings you to Discovery Park of America, a museum, and to Davy Crockett Lake, a reservoir. Winters are cold but with little or no snow, summers are hot, and rain falls 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 Greenfield’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively high. 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 Weakley County and the Martin, TN metro.
