'''Paris, Tennessee''' (USA) is a small town in West Tennessee that was incorporated in 1823. In recent decades, its population has hovered at around 10,000 people. It is the county seat for Henry County and its town center, like many towns in the region, is built around an imposing [[court house]] which is now more than a hundred years old. Paris is in the geographic center of Henry County, which is in the upper right corner of West Tennessee, bordered by Kentucky to the north and the Tennessee River to the east. The town is indisputably "out in the boonies"; even with modern freeways, it requires a good two hours by car, driving at slightly illegal speeds, to reach any really large city (Memphis, Nashville or Paducah, KY). | '''Paris, Tennessee''' (USA) is a small town in West Tennessee that was incorporated in 1823.
