A website that evaluates living metrics ranked the towns and cities of Tennessee by their long-term livability.
Called the “Best Places to Put Down Roots and Live” list, Williamson County dominated, with four of its cities making the top 12 and three in the top four.
See if you agree with their rankings and assessments, listed below.
From Only In Your State:
12. Nolensville
You may only know Nolensville for the antiquing (don’t feel bad – it’s normal), but this adorable town is great for Nashville commuters and those who are looking to send their kids to public school. They just opened a new high school and is working on building up the community that truly defines this beautiful place.
11. Maryville
10. Kingsport
9. White House
8. Johnson City
7. Bartlett
6. Morristown
5. Portland
4. Brentwood
The gem of Williamson county, you should be making a bit more moolah if you’re planning on settling down in Brentwood. Housing prices are up, but so are job opportunities and school quality.
3. Spring Hill
Spring Hill has recently exploded in the jobs department, and tempered with solid schools and a great location in Williamson county you have a solid spot for families.
2. Germantown
1. Franklin
Ah, Franklin. Forever the country darling. It has been recognized on a national level for its fantastic schools and great community opportunities, plus it proffers some intense historic ties to the Civil War and has a darling downtown. Perfect for prom shots and engagement photos, right? But we’re not rushing anything.
