Renter's Guide to Nashville
Welcome to Music City U.S.A, y’all!
Most people know Nashville as the home of country music, but this metropolitan city is much more than cowboy boots and line dancing. It’s the second largest city in Tennessee, as well as its capital. It's also the 5th biggest city in the Southeast.
Travel + Leisure magazine recently named Nashville the 5th Best City in the U.S., based on its food, culture, shopping, and value.
With 208 sunny days per year and seasonable temperatures, like an average of 46°F in January, and 89°F in July, it’s easy to see why Nashville is so popular. Even snow lovers get about 10 inches per year to play in.
Settled in the northern part of Tennessee, the city is five times the size of nearby Franklin, which is just 22 miles away. You can also take a day trip to Memphis, just 212 miles away, or to Chattanooga, which is 133 miles from Nashville.

Living in Nashville, TN
Quite a mix of people call Nashville home. Its job market, numerous universities, and reasonable cost of living lure immigrants from Mexico, Asia, and Africa. The Kurdish community in Nashville is the largest in the U.S.
The advantages of living in Nashville include being close to some of the best new music in the world. You’ll also be in a city that's constantly alive, with plenty of bars, restaurants, and entertainment venues to choose from.
All the tourism the city brings in has made living in Nashville difficult, and some of the locals are unhappy with visitors “invading” their city. Another negative of living in Nashville is the fairly high crime rate, which is 60 percent higher than the country’s average.
Things to do in Nashville
There are so many things to do in Nashville, you may have a hard time deciding each day.
There are tons of options for music lovers, of course, like visiting the Ryman Auditorium – the home of country music – and the Grand Ole Opry. Head to the Country Music Hall of Fame and museum, or take a drive down Music Row, where country and rock musicians alike record their hits.
Several world-renowned music clubs in the city host both country and rock musicians, such as Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge, the Bluebird Café, and the Listening Room Café. Yearly festivals in Nashville are a hit as well, including the CMA Music Festival, Wine on the River, The Tennessee State Fair, and the Music City Hot Chicken Festival.
You can have lots of fun in Nashville as a family, too. Like visiting the Nashville Zoo, or spending the day at Nashville Shores Water Park, which features a wave pool, beach, and a lazy river. More than 90 parks are spread throughout the city, including the 374-acre Two Rivers Park.
It has swimming pools, water slides, a golf course, a skate park, and a greenway for hiking and biking. Shelby Park, along the Cumberland River, has playgrounds, a dog park, golf courses, a fishing lake, and wildlife viewing areas.
Sports fans can’t miss taking in a Nashville Sounds Minor League Baseball game, and the NHL’s Nashville Predators play at the Bridgestone Arena. Pro football’s Tennessee Titans are a big draw at Nissan Stadium.
A city with this much culture has rightfully earned Travel + Leisure’s designation of the 13th "snobbiest" city in America. Nashville residents love their culinary, art, and theater scene. Several art galleries are peppered throughout the city, including the Frist Center for the Visual Arts and Cheekwood Botanical Garden and Art Museum.
The fine arts gallery within Vanderbilt University is another popular destination, as is the Parthenon – a reproduction of the ancient building in Greece – which is home to an art gallery of its own.
The Nashville Repertory Theatre is home to the theatre company of the same name, while the Nashville Children’s Theatre puts on show especially for kids. Other local theater productions can be enjoyed at the Darkhorse Theatre, the Street Theatre Company, and the Blackbird Theatre.
