Knoxville is in Knox County, Tennessee, United States. As of the 2005 census estimates, the city had a total population of 180,130, with a metro population of 655,400. It is the county seat of Knox County, and is the third-largest city in the state of Tennessee behind Memphis and Nashville. One of its nicknames is The Marble City, from when it was a major center of marble distribution in the early 20th century. It was named in honor of the first Secretary of War, Henry Knox.
Knoxville is also the home of the University of Tennessee's primary campus (UTK). The university's sports teams, called the "Volunteers" or "Vols," are extremely popular in the surrounding area. In fact, the area code comprising Knoxville and the surrounding counties is 865 (VOL). Knoxville is also the home of the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame, almost entirely thanks to the popularity of Pat Summitt and the University of Tennessee women's basketball team.
