Local Facts & Community Context for Tamms, IL
Understanding the local housing stock, population density, and municipal layout of Tamms (Alexander County) helps independent remediation contractors coordinate discreet arrival and efficient biohazard waste transport:
Tamms is a village in Alexander County, the southernmost county in Illinois, and it is part of the Cape Girardeau-Jackson, Missouri-Illinois Metropolitan Statistical Area.
Tamms was established in 1883 under the name Idlewild.
The village's old railroad depot now serves as its village hall, and rail service to Tamms ended in the 1970s, after which the local economy declined.
Just north of the village stood the Tamms Correctional Center, Illinois's supermax prison, whose 500-bed Closed Maximum Security Unit opened in March 1998 alongside a 200-bed minimum-security unit that had opened in 1995.
The Tamms prison housed the State of Illinois's execution chamber, and Andrew Kokoraleis, executed there in 1999, was the only person ever put to death at Tamms.
The Tamms Correctional Center closed on January 4, 2013, after years of controversy over its use of long-term solitary confinement and its high operating costs.
Tamms had 430 residents at the 2020 census, down sharply from 632 in 2010, a drop linked in part to the prison's closure.
The 2020 census counted 220 households and 148 families in Tamms, spread across 2.33 square miles of land.
Tamms's population peaked at 826 in the 1980 census, more than double its 2020 count.
Alexander County lost 36.4% of its population between 2010 and 2020, the steepest ten-year decline of any county in the United States.
