Three Notch, a rural region of Noble, Alabama, is the novel's main setting. Several black families reside in Three Notch. A road runs through it, but it is heavily wooded. Francie and her mother live here, as well as Auntie Lydia, Miss Mabel and a few others. The families seem to have formed a loose-knit community, illustrated by their concern that the community will suffer if the white folks find out that Jesse Pruitt is being protected in their woods.
