incorporated in 1895. Only 1,000 people and sadly not growing. 85% African American. This little town has some interesting urban decay and ruins from the past. Hopefully change can revitalize the town and it can be saved from its current condition. The town has many historic homes some of which are in bad shape, other already to far gone to be saved. Very friendly people. Interesting history here. We also found some cool items roadside as it was a garbage day. some cool shutters I might use if i build a barn.
