Every other place on the list above lies wholly within Carroll County.<\/p>\n ZIP Codes<\/h2>\nThe remaining unincorporated communities have no ZIP code of their own and are served by the ZIP of the nearest town listed above.<\/p>\n Geography<\/h2>\nCarroll County sits on the West Tennessee Plain, a landscape of gently rolling hills and mixed farmland and woodland drained by small creeks feeding the Big Sandy and Obion river systems. The county covers 600 square miles, of which 599 square miles is land and 0.8 square miles is water.<\/p>\n Carroll County borders Henry County<\/a> to the northeast, Benton County<\/a> to the east, Decatur County<\/a> to the southeast, Henderson County<\/a> to the south, Madison County<\/a> to the southwest, Gibson County<\/a> to the west, and Weakley County<\/a> to the northwest.<\/p>\n Carroll County had 28,440 residents at the 2020 census, with 17.9% living in urban areas and 82.1% in rural areas. McKenzie and Huntingdon are the county’s two largest communities. Census figures showed the population as 84.4% White and 8.6% Black or African American. Median household income data specific to Carroll County was not available from the sources checked for this profile; Tennessee’s statewide 2023 ACS median household income was $67,631, and Carroll County’s largely rural, agricultural economy typically runs below the state figure.<\/p>\n Agriculture remains central to Carroll County’s economy, with row crops, cattle and timber production spread across its rural townships. McKenzie is home to Bethel University, a private university that anchors much of the town’s employment and civic life. Huntingdon, the county seat, hosts county government offices and the courthouse square that still serves as the community’s commercial center.<\/p>\n The Tennessee General Assembly established Carroll County on November 7, 1821, naming it for William Carroll, then governor of Tennessee. During Tennessee’s 1861 secession referendum, Carroll County voted to remain in the Union, 1,349 to 967, a notable split from much of the surrounding region at the time.<\/p>\n US-70 and TN-22 are the principal highways crossing Carroll County, linking Huntingdon and McKenzie to neighboring West Tennessee towns.
