The town of Boley does not have a web page. It is governed by a mayor and Board of Trustees and Town Manager.
Boley was established in 1903 and was one of the original all-black towns. It flourished in those early years, but the cotton crop failures of the 1920's and the Depression in the 1930's took its toll and the population decreased from 4000 to its current population of 1180. Most of the buildings in the downtown area are vacant and in ruins, but the town still succeeds with fierce pride.
