== Fun facts ==
* The three Hodge villages are located near the Black Pond, and aside from fishing, it has a bit of a decent economy. It has Dollar General, a Westrock paper mill, and a railcar service facility along the Louisiana Southern Railroad in addition to a railyard. Hickory Hut BBQ is located in North Hodge.
* The Tremont Lumber company founded Eros, in the early 20th century. Mrs. Mary Collins, née Nash (wife of Samuel Collins) suggested that the sawmill boomtown be named after the 433 Eros Asteroid (discovered in 1898). Eros served as a center point for a number of small surrounding communities, such as Hog Hair, Jumping Vernon, Indian Village, Salem Guyton, Flat Creek, Head Settlement, Vernon, Fuller Town, and Bug Tussle. Most children in these communities were sent to study at the Eros school, and citizens would normally receive their mail through rural mail coming from Eros. Box suppers would be held for various causes, making Eros a social center.
* Caney Lake, or Caney Creek Reservoir, along with the Jimmie Davis State Park, is located near Womack and to the southwest of Chatham.
