Who owns the towers in Sumter County
20 different registrants own the 42 structures. One is registered to an individual or family trust, whose name this site withholds.

Height and age
The median structure here stands 307 feet, 42 feet taller than the Alabama median — a sign of broadcast and rural coverage towers rather than short suburban sites. The tallest is a guyed tower near Livingston at 490 feet, built in 1992. Most 62% were built in the 2000s.
Every registered structure
Sorted tallest first. The registration number opens the FCC record, which shows the exact location and the owner's contact for the structure. A tower on your land that is not in this list is probably under 200 feet and away from airports, so it did not need registering — see why some towers aren't listed.
