Info needed Mercer, TN
Any information about Mercer TN? I realize it's a small community but info on this little place seems extremely limited on the net.

What do you want to know about it? It's a tiny unincorporated community in Madison County near Jackson.

BigSam....appears you came up with the same results as me. All I know is the population is around 550 and outside the city limits of Jackson. I was looking specificly for additional demographics, crime, age spread...things normally on City-Data. I'm looking a relocating to such a small community and have located a nice parcel of land with existing construction. Since it is incorporated it seems to me there should be some form of town government.

As I've already written, Mercer is not an incorporated town. There are only three incorporated towns in Madison County: Jackson, Medon, and Three Way.
There's not really anything to Mercer. It's a racially-mixed, farming-heavy area on the side of the road. The people who live around there tend to be older.

What kind of existing construction are you looking for, quikwit?

Building something like that in Mercer would be interesting to say the least. Mercer sits on the Madison/Haywood county line. Very poor area -- one of the poorest rural areas in the state.

Madison--HARDEMAN County line i think. Haywood would be across the Hatchie River. A million dollar house in Mercer? Your youngest neighbors would be about 80! Cotton-soybeans-watermelons and winter wheat. Thats Mercer. And you better be Baptist!
