Scotts Hill is a town in Decatur and Henderson counties in the U.S. state of Tennessee. The population was 877 at the 2020 census.[5]
The community was named after Micajah Scott, a pioneer settler and the first merchant to settle in the town.[6][7] The name "Scotts Hill" is derived from the location of Scott's store, which sat on the hill across from the current Methodist Church.[7]
