Beginnings [1]
The City of Scott has a unique heritage and rich cultural history that resound from its historic neighborhoods, buildings and residents. Visitors arriving from I-10 travel through a mixture of contemporary developments and mixed use neighborhoods toward a civic and historic center, through older neighborhoods with century-old buildings that have been restored into locally owned businesses along oak tree lined roads. This city which began as a railroad community in 1880 has built up steam in the last hundred years, becoming a Village in 1907, a Town in 1960, and a City in 1990.
