I have no idea but I'm going to make a wild guess - master planned community developers have discovered Reelfoot Lake. |

People who check their current non-Tennessee town's population density may be surprised when they compare the numbers. My former town's population density is 4,239 people per square mile. You wouldn't think it looks that dense but that's because 1) there are apartments/condos so people are living vertically and 2) the town is only 5 square miles, there are hardly any businesses (and no downtown) in the town, and there is a six lane (3/3) main road so you're in and out of town quickly. |

unless it's Spring Hill and they abolish the property tax. 
as a comparison, my ZIP CODE in Chicago, just my area alone, has a population density of 36,133 people per square mile. and city-data says it's an area of 1.4 sq miles. i don't feel crowded though. |
