Tennessee’s 95 counties, by the numbers
Every county’s population, median household income, unemployment, density, and land area — sortable by any column, so you can find yours or rank by what matters to you. A few patterns run through the data:
- Concentrated. Half of Tennessee’s 7,126,489 residents live in just 8 of 95 counties, and the five largest hold 40.3% of the total. Census PEP 2023
- Income tracks poverty. The gap from richest to poorest runs 3.5×, and the 10 highest-income counties average 9.3% in poverty against 22.4% for the 10 lowest. Census SAIPE 2023
- Mostly small. Half of Tennessee’s counties have fewer than 32,554 residents, and half report a median household income below $57,630 — a few metros lift the statewide totals well above both. Census PEP 2023 · SAIPE 2023
- Lopsided density. Only 20 of 95 counties are denser than Tennessee’s statewide average of 173 people per square mile — the rest are more rural. Census PEP 2023 · TIGER
