Dayton, AL

Dayton is a tiny Alabama community of 46 people in rural Marengo County, reached via State Route 14 from Demopolis (15 miles northeast) or Linden (20 miles southeast). Most visitors come from nearby farming towns, though some travel from Meridian, Mississippi, 45 miles west. The town sits along Chickasaw Creek, where Route 14 crosses a small concrete bridge that once served the local timber mills.
