  • Filmed on Monday, May 1, 2023, I drive around the village Smithville, Tennessee to see what's going on.
    Smithville is a city in DeKalb County, Tennessee. The population was 5,004 at the 2020 census, up from 3,994 at the 2010 census.
    In the 1949 World War II John Wayne film, Sands of Iwo Jima, Smithville is referred to by a local-boy Marine talking to a girl and pointing to labels on a map during a dance hall scene. It is mentioned as being famous for "corn tobacco" and "more fertilizer than any other place in the world".
    Joe L. Evins helped start the world-famous Smithville Fiddler's Jamboree & Crafts Festival. The first Jamboree was held in July 1972 on a stage built on the steps of the DeKalb County Courthouse, and has been held there annually on the weekend nearest to July 4.
    The first Jamboree attracted 714 musicians from 16 states, and was attended by an estimated audience of 8,000. Present day audiences are estimated to be well over 100,000 from all over the U.S., and many from abroad.
    As of the 2020 United States census, there were 5,004 people residing in the city.
    The racial makeup of the city was 94.34% White, 2.73% African American, 0.15% Native American, 0.10% Asian, 1.65% from other races, and 1.03% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 4.06% of the population.
    The per capita income for the city was $16,854. About 15.4% of families and 22.2% of the population were below the poverty line, including 28.3% of those under age 18 and 25.8% of those age 65 or over. #driving #travel #drivingtour

    Your drives are always scenic and relaxing and they all have some amount of archival value. Keep up the good work.
