A Peek into Hustle's Past
The name "Hustle" has a fun story behind it! A post office first opened here in 1909. The community got its name from a pickle seller who used to visit the area. His customers would "hustle" (meaning they would hurry or rush) to buy his tasty pickles. This lively name stuck, and that's how this unique community got its name.
