Soddy-Daisy: Two Former Mining Towns Combined in Hamilton County
Soddy-Daisy sits in Hamilton County along the Tennessee River and Chickamauga Lake, about 15 miles north of Chattanooga, with roughly 13,000 residents. The city was formed in 1969 by merging the former coal mining towns of Soddy and Daisy, both of which developed in the late nineteenth century around Cumberland Plateau coal seams extending down to the river valley. Coal production ended in the area by the mid-twentieth century.
Chickamauga Lake, formed by the TVA Chickamauga Dam in 1940, provides the city's principal recreational asset. The lake supports boating, fishing, and residential waterfront development. Sequoyah Nuclear Plant, operated by TVA across the river, contributes to the regional power grid.
The city functions primarily as a residential and commercial corridor along US 27, which connects it to Chattanooga to the south and to the Cumberland Plateau communities to the north. Poe's Tavern, a historic stagecoach stop, once operated in the area.
