How many people live in Pigeon Forge?

As of 2016, there are approximately 6200 people living in Pigeon Forge.

As of 2015, Sevier County’s population is about 96,000.

How did Pigeon Forge get it's name?

Pigeons were very popular inhabitants of the land once upon a time. Hence, the first part of Pigeon Forge’s name. The second part is named from an industry that was also prevalent in East Tennessee-besides farming and lodging-and that is iron. A man named Isaac Love built an iron forge along the Little Pigeon River, and the family later expanded into the milling business. The milling business eventually outran the iron forge, but it was important to remember the history of what started the community and that is where we get Pigeon Forge.
