Scotts Hill, TN

Sitting right along Highway 100 across the border of Henderson and Decatur counties, Scotts Hill is a quiet West Tennessee town with a relaxed, rural pace. It grew from a 19th-century stagecoach stop and general store into a close community where neighbors still know each other. For newcomers, it provides plenty of open space and peaceful countryside, all while keeping you within an easy drive of shopping and healthcare in nearby Lexington and Jackson.
