About Norris
Built in the 1930s as a model community for workers building Norris Dam, Norris still retains its quiet, small-town charm. The town was designed around green spaces and a walkable center, where winding, tree-shaded streets connect cozy homes to local schools, a library, and the central commons. Residents enjoy quick access to outdoor recreation, with Norris Dam State Park and Norris Lake sitting right at the edge of town for hiking, boating, and fishing along the Clinch River. It is a peaceful, historic pocket of Anderson County with a strong sense of community and plenty of nature close at hand.
