About Epes

Perched high on the bluffs overlooking the Tombigbee River, Epes is a quiet, small-town corner of Sumter County. It grew up as a river port and railroad stop in the late 1800s, and that relaxed, rural rhythm is still very much alive today. Sitting right along U.S. 11, the town gives residents easy access to great fishing and boating on the water, with nearby Livingston just a short drive away for groceries, dining, and everyday errands. Local students attend Sumter County schools, and life here stays slow, peaceful, and scenic.
