Blount County

Blount County is across the Tennessee River from Knox County and is home to the cities of Maryville, Alcoa, and Townsend. Its proximity and easy access to West Knoxville, the University, Downtown, and McGhee Tyson Airport, in addition to its reputation as the gateway to the quiet side of the Smokies makes it appealing to those seeking a more rural atmosphere but still want to take advantage of the cultural life of Knoxville. There is something for every budget and there are a number of luxury homes, either on the lake or close to it. The town of Maryville has a vibrant downtown and one of the best school systems in the state. Maryville and Alcoa are home to two of the best high school football teams in the state. Townsend is right on the edge of The Great Smoky Mountains and permanent residents share their charming community with visitors and vacation-home owners.
