About the City of Coopertown Tennessee:

A bedroom community for both Nashville to the south and Clarksville to the north, Coopertown was incorporated in 1996 in response to the threat of a landfill locating in the community.

With no property taxes, and a nationally-honored middle school, the town was a large producer of barrels for Robertson County whiskey until the industry’s demise in the 1880s.

Coopertown was named after the "coopers" who made the barrels of whiskey for Nelson's Distillery located in nearby Greenbrier.
