A Sportsplex, completed in 2007, offers residents with unparalleled access to recreational and fitness equipment and represents Covington’s dedication to the future.

Residents of an apartment or home rental in Covington eagerly host the Tipton County BBQ Festival each year, one of many community events designed to bring Covington together.

In the holiday season, Christmas Lights adorn the square creating an ambient environment.
