Fort Campbell North and the Military Corridor
Fort Campbell North is a census-designated place in Christian County, Kentucky, located adjacent to the northern boundary of Fort Campbell. The community exists primarily as a residential area for military families and civilian workers associated with the base. Fort Campbell itself straddles the Kentucky-Tennessee border and is home to the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault), one of the most deployed units in the U.S. Army.
The base's economic influence on the surrounding area is substantial. Fort Campbell employs tens of thousands of soldiers, civilian workers, and contractors, and the spending power of this population supports retail, housing, and service industries across both Christian County and Montgomery County, Tennessee. Housing developments, apartment complexes, and commercial strips along the Gate 4 corridor serve the daily needs of the military community.
Fort Campbell was established in 1942 as a training center during World War II and has since expanded into a major installation with its own hospital, schools, and infrastructure. The Pratt Museum on the base documents the history of the 101st Airborne from its activation in 1942 through its deployments to Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan.
