What it’s like
The place. Walland is a very small community in Blount County, Tennessee, with a population that has stayed small enough for neighbors to know one another. Homes here are valued well above what is typical for the county's median household income, which may matter to anyone thinking about moving in. Winters are cold, with a little snow most years, and summers are warm; the year brings a lot of rain and melted snow.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with manufacturing, shops and professional and business services also common. Across Blount County, some of the largest workplaces are Denso Manufacturing Tennessee, Blount Memorial Hospital and Blount County Schools. Unemployment across the county is low and has changed very little over the past year, and the number of jobs has edged up slightly.
Things to do. The closest outings are Foothills Parkway, a protected area, and The Sinks, a waterfall, both a short drive away. A longer drive leads to Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the best known of the nearby places, and to Dollywood, an amusement park.

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