About Fowlkes
Fowlkes is a quiet, unincorporated community in West Tennessee's Dyer County, home to just under 900 residents. The area grew up around a railroad stop in the 1880s, serving as a vital hub for local farmers shipping cotton and grain to larger markets. Today, it holds onto those agricultural roots, offering a calm rural setting surrounded by open fields and quiet country roads.
While the community itself is small, residents are only a short drive from larger towns like Dyersburg and Newbern for work, shopping, and dining. Families are served by the Dyer County School District, with high school students attending Dyer County High School in Newbern. It makes for an appealing spot if you want wide-open space and a slower pace of life without feeling completely disconnected from county amenities.
