We all want to make sure we raise our families in sweet, strong neighborhoods with kind people and good schools. Tennessee is all of those things rolled into one, so it was ROUGH trying to pick out a handful of places best for your sweet little fam’ – and here they are.
- Spring Hill
Brent Moore / Flickr Spring Hill is growing like a weed, with an increased population, great schools, and a solid median income.
- Brentwood
Brent Moore / Flickr This town is great for the 1%, ranking high nationally for insanely solid schools (private), and beautiful homes. They’re expensive, however. Keep it in mind.
- Chattanooga
Charlene N Simmons / Flickr Hiking and rivers and bridges, oh my! Chattanooga is a big city at first glance, but a sleepy town at heart with good schools. Crime rates can be high, however, so just make sure to lock the door at night.
- Hendersonville
gravel72 / Flickr Located barely thirty minutes outside of Nashville (with traffic), Hendersonville is on the water and a homing beacon for great families. Affordable homes and solid income averages may be attributed to its close proximity to Nashville.
- Lexington
Nyttend / Wikimedia Tiny, tiny, TINY, Lexington doesn’t even break ten thousand folks. Which makes it even more amazing that education is great and median home prices are solid.
- Nolensville
Sheltieboy / Flickr Historic and beautiful, Nolensville has a high median income average and solid family atmosphere.
- Seymour
Brian Stansberry / Wikimedia It may be small, but the mark is huge. Again with fantastic education options, Seymour is located in gorgeous East Tennessee, which makes it easy for you to visit out of town relatives due to the central national location.
- Signal Mountain
Michael Hicks / Flickr Nestled right in the mountains outside of Chattanooga, Signal Mountains has AMAZING schools.
- Thompson Station
Brent Moore / Flickr Right down the road from Franklin, Thompson Station is a safe country town that will remind you of the good old days. It’s about 45 minutes from Nashville, with access to great parks and extracurricular activies.
- Arlington
lobstar28 / Flickr This country town is beautiful and is ranked high both prosperity wise and in the educational department. Lots of activities for the kids, a solid environment for growth and a ZERO poverty rate for young families with kiddos. Beautiful work, Arlington.
