Mayor Patt M. Judd
Let me tell you a little bit about my city of Algood, Tennessee. Algood is located right smack in the middle of Nashville and Knoxville, and Chattanooga is only a short drive south via HWY 111. Algood has all the big city conveniences with the small town mentality! If you are planning to relocate, we have one of the best schools in Putnam County, and located just few miles from Tennessee Tech University and Nashville State. For the Sport Fans we are only a short drive to professional football games, great college football action, the best aquarium in the country, and one of the prettiest national parks in the world! We are also home to the UC Quilt Festival, Algood Bluegrass Festival, and much more. Thank you for visiting our web site and welcome to Algood. ~Patt M. Judd Mayor
