Moscow, TN

Tucked away in southwest Tennessee's Fayette County, Moscow is a quiet, tight-knit town of around 600 people. Settled along the Wolf River in the mid-1800s as a trading hub for local farmers, it earned its distinctive name thanks to one of its founders honoring his wife's Russian roots. Today, it retains that peaceful rural charm, surrounded by open farmland, scenic riverbanks, and a strong sense of local history.
