EVERYTHING TO KNOW ABOUT RENTING AN APARTMENT IN NASHVILLE, TN

Nashville, also known as Music City, is a dynamic metropolis featuring interesting restaurants, highbrow cultural institutions and professional sports venues usually found in much larger cities. Upon arrival, you'll immediately realize this town is different: It moves faster and talks a bigger game than other similar-sized towns. At the same time, Nashville's community spirit is characteristic of a friendly small town, a blend that makes it quite remarkable.

WEATHER AND SEASONS

Situated in the southeastern United States, Nashville experiences four distinct seasons, with relatively mild winters and sunny, hot summers.

BEST PLACES TO FIND AN APARTMENT FOR RENT IN NASHVILLE

To get you started on your apartment search, here are some notable neighborhoods in Nashville:

  • Midtown: If you're looking for a night out at clubs or bars, Midtown is great for that. The bars are open late and you're more likely to find locals than tourists. It's also close to downtown, so you don't have to go far.
  • Sylvan Park: Sylvan Park has mostly been houses, but in recent years, more apartment communities have been added. This is the type of neighborhood where you tend to know your neighbors and most residents are quite involved in the community.
  • East Nashville: After years of rebuilding and revitalization, East Nashville has become one of the great hotspots of the city. It tends to be more low-key, but anyone who's looking for an artsy community will find it here.
  • Green Hills: Green Hills is one of the largest and farthest out neighborhoods in the city. It's known for its shopping, with both local and high-end retail being represented. It's one of the more affluent neighborhoods, but great for families if you can afford to live there.
  • Edgehill: This one is almost a secret. It's a smaller neighborhood, focused more on shops and restaurants than homes, so you might not think it's the best. It's right next to music row and tends to be pretty affordable, however, so you can get a great deal on a great location if you find the right place here.

INDUSTRY, JOBS AND EDUCATION

A strong job market and booming economy make Nashville a popular choice for those relocating or just entering the job market. While it's a key player in the music industry, Nashville has significance in publishing and healthcare as well. It also has great higher education, being home to several notable institutions, including Vanderbilt University and Belmont University.

NASHVILLE FESTIVALS AND EVENTS

Nashville is home to a number of annual festivals, including Nashville Shakespeare Festival, Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival and Music City Hot Chicken Festival, which celebrates Nashville's famed hot chicken. The CMA Music Festival, a four-day country music extravaganza in June, hosts nearly 200 artists each year.

These include the public use areas along the banks of J. Percy Priest Lake, Radnor Lake State Natural Area and the "twin" Percy and Edwin Warner Parks.
