Tucked between two county seats that offer two different styles of living, Fredericksburg is located in southern Wayne County. According to the 2020 census the Village of Fredericksburg had 145 households with a population of 409. Fredericksburg is home to two large factories. Mrs. Miller’s Homemade Noodles offers various kinds of pastas as well as jams and jellies that are distributed throughout the United States. Robin Industries makes rubber and plastic parts for the automobile industry; they are under contract with General Motors. Other businesses include a construction company, a hardware store, two banks, two restaurants, a bakery, a gift shop and mercantile store, a pet grooming service, a leather artisan, car wash, laundry mat, an outdoor sporting goods store, RE/MAX Real Estate Agent, Fierce Creative Solutions, LLC (a full-service marketing agency), an audiologist office as well as a couple of chiropractic offices, some VRBO rentals and various other small businesses within the surrounding area. In 2025, the Village Park built pickleball and basketball courts. Fredericksburg also has 3 churches and a library that is run entirely by volunteers. In early 2026, the South Central Fire District built a 17,000 sq. ft. fires station built on the former grounds of the Fredericksburg Elementary School. The sandstone arch that used to frame and welcome students in to the school for over 130 years has been carefully removed and reinstalled at the Village Park as the beginning of a Story Book Walk. The old firehouse has now become the new Fredericksburg Village Hall that allows for shared space with the street and water departments.
