What it’s like
The place. Luttrell is a very small town in Union County, Tennessee, where nearly all homes are lived in by their owners. Household incomes here run well below the county's, and typical home values sit at a modest level. Few adults hold a four-year degree, and getting to work usually means a long drive. Winters are cold, with only a little snow, while summers are warm and the year is fairly wet.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, the building trades, professional and business services, and shops. Across Union County, the largest workplaces include Union County Schools, Clayton, which builds manufactured homes, and K VA T Food Stores. The county has fewer jobs than it did the year before, though unemployment has held steady over the past year.
Things to do. Norris Lake, a reservoir, is a short drive away and the closest of the nearby places for time on the water. Farther afield, a longer drive brings you to Big Ridge State Park, a protected area, and to the Museum of Appalachia. Knoxville's Zoo Knoxville and Neyland Stadium are also a longer drive from town.

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