Giles
7.5
High score (8-10)
Giles County has no realistic warm case.
Mid score (6-8) · Your profile
Pulaski is the county seat and has the unfortunate historical distinction of being the birthplace of the Ku Klux Klan, founded there in 1865. The town has worked to address that legacy but it remains part of the county's identity. The economy runs on small manufacturing and agriculture. Conservative South Tennessee with limited social infrastructure.
Lower score (below 6)
Pulaski, the county seat, is where the Ku Klux Klan was founded in 1865 — that history is embedded in the county's identity even as the community has worked to distance itself from it. The social world is organized through church and family in conservative South Tennessee fashion. Small manufacturing provides employment. A foreign man here starts with a specific set of cultural dynamics to navigate on top of the standard rural Southern insularity.
