LOCATION
Thomasville, in Davidson County, is located in the center of the Piedmont, North Carolina's industrial section situated between the mountains and the coastal area. Midway between Washington and At- lanta, Thomasville is served by both the Southern Railway's main line and the locally owned, short-line High Point, Thomasville and Denton Railroad, connecting with the Atlantic Coast Line and Norfolk and West- ern Railroads. Thomasville is the junction between United States High- ways Nos. 70 and 29 and State Highways Nos. 109 and 62, with local and interstate bus service. Eighteen miles away is the Greensboro-High Point airport, and within 20 miles is the Smith Reynolds airport in Wins- ton-Salem, both serviced by the Eastern, Capital and Piedmont Air Lines.
POPULATION
According to the United States Census Bureau, the population of Thomasville in 1860 was 308. By 1900 it had grown to only 750. At the turn of the century the rapid growth and progress of Thomasville began with the advent of the furniture manufacturing industry. By 1910 the population was 3,877. New enterprises, particularly in the textile field were added, so that by 1920 the city had grown to 5,676; by 1940 to 11,041, and by 1950 to 11,154. Many small enterprises have been started in the past ten years. The city limits have not been ex- tended since 1915. At least 5,000 people live in the area immediately surrounding the city's incorporated limit of 3,375 square miles.
Fifteen per cent of the city's population is Negro.
Within a radius of 50 miles more than one million people reside.
CLIMATE
Mean annual temperature is 58 degrees. Seasonal averages are Winter 42 degrees; Spring 57 degrees; Summer 76 degrees; and Fall 56 degrees. Average annual rainfall is 47.56 inches. Altitude is 857 feet above sea level.
GOVERNMENT
Thomasville is governed on the council-manager plan. The council is composed of a mayor and five councilmen. The city adopted the council-manager plan in 1915, the third city in North Carolina to employ a city manager. Government offices are centralized in a three story structure completed in 1938.
