What it’s like
The place. Leoma is a very small community in Lawrence County, in southern Tennessee. Households here earn little compared with the county's median, but very few people live below the poverty line. The typical home is worth a good deal, and the short commute most residents report suggests that daily errands and trips to work stay close to home.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by manufacturing, shops and the building trades. Across Lawrence County, the largest workplaces include Lawrence County Schools, Crockett Hospital and Modine Manufacturing Company - Lawrenceburg 2. Unemployment across the county is a little higher than a year ago, and the county has fewer jobs than it did the year before.
Things to do. David Crockett State Park, a protected area, is a short drive away and is the nearest place for time outdoors. A longer drive brings you to Wheeler Lake, a reservoir, and to the Buffalo River. Winters here are cold, with January the coldest month, and summers are hot, with July the warmest.

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