East Knox County & Seymour

I-40 East

The developing eastern portion of Knox County and the Seymour community spanning the Blount-Sevier county line. East Knoxville's neighborhoods -- including Holston Hills, Burlington, and Parkridge -- sit between downtown and the rapidly growing Strawberry Plains area along I-40 east. Corryton (pop. 14,300) offers rural-suburban living in the northeastern hills along Tazewell Pike. Seymour (pop. 14,700), straddling Blount and Sevier counties along Chapman Highway, provides affordable housing with access to both Knoxville and the Smoky Mountains.
