This city combines a historic downtown with abundant shopping
A small city in northwest Tennessee, Dyersburg is the seat of Dyer County and a regional hub filled with commercial and public amenities. “We have a great downtown district and are known for shopping,” says Brianna Roser, director of downtown development, marketing and community programs. “People come from across the Mississippi River and counties over to shop at the stores here.” The arrival of railroads in the late 19th century brought manufacturing, distribution and processing industries to the Dyersburg, which continue to support its current population of 16,000. The city’s location just east of the Mississippi also provides abundant ways to enjoy the outdoors.
Dyersburg is the longtime seat of Dyer County, Tennessee.

Duck hunting on the Mississippi River and butterfly migrations
Okeena Park and Forked Deer River Park are Dyersburg’s most frequented green spaces. The city is currently adding food truck hookups to the latter, as the park hosts the Main Street Dyersburg Farmers Market throughout summer. “We are also on the Mississippi Flyway, so the river is a popular spot for duck hunting, kayaking and canoeing,” Roser says. “Even the butterfly migration goes right over us and many people come to see the butterflies.” The recently built Dyersburg Soccer Complex on the city’s south side caters to local and travel youth leagues. When mild winters roll in, three community centers oversee an array of indoor programming.
Forked Deer Park in Dyersburg is named for the Forked Deer River which runs just south of the park.
Dyersburg is situated about 15 miles east of the Mississippi River.

Folks gather for the Downtown Dyersburg Chirstmas Parade
“We host a lot of downtown events,” Roser says. “The Downtown Dyersburg Christmas Parade has run for over 70 years and is a community staple.” The festival occurs on the Monday following Thanksgiving, when locals grab hot cocoa to watch floats and marching bands loop around the historic downtown square. The square is also the site of several other annual events held throughout the year.
Getting around on U.S. Route 51
U.S. Route 51 runs through the city, linking residents southwest to Memphis, 75 miles southwest. Those traveling out of the region must make the 45-mile drive southeast to Jackson Regional Airport, which services connecting flights to major city airports in Denver, Atlanta and Chicago. Residents can also hop on the train at Amtrak’s Newbern-Dyersburg station 10 miles northeast. One of just two stations in the entire state, riders can take the train north to Chicago or south to New Orleans.
Dyersburg's crime statistics and earthquake concerns
According to FBI data, violent crime fluctuates yearly but has remained relatively level since a significant drop in 2017. Property crime levels have also been steady in the last three years. While there was an uptick in 2020, property crime has decreased by nearly 40% since 2015. Dyersburg sits along the New Madrid Seismic Zone. However, Roser shares that earthquakes rarely occur and are not a concern for residents.
