County of Knox
Knox County, located in the heart of the Great Valley of East Tennessee, is a diverse region known for its historical significance and vibrant community life. Established in 1792, it encompasses the city of Knoxville, which serves as both the county seat and its largest city, influencing both local governance and community services.
The county operates under a home rule format with a County Mayor and an elected County Commission, distinguishing itself from the city governance of Knoxville. Despite overlapping boundaries, Knox County efficiently manages its own services such as schools, health departments, and libraries, while ensuring that residents have balanced access to both city and county resources.
