East Tennessee is very white. Nashville is a good mix IMO. If your comparing it with New Orleans then yes, it's more white. But which cities through out the country outside of Memphis and Detroit match New Orleans? Not many.

30% of Nashville is black with a little over 10% of the city being hispanic. It's a good melting pot IMO.


Uhhh Atlanta, Baton Rouge, Jackson MS, Birmingham, Charleston, etc. are all much more black. If you look at Nashville and surrounding areas like Franklin, Bellevue, Brentwood, etc. its much less diverse than other Southeastern cities.

Not saying its a good or bad thing, just trying to give him a feel for the city.

Job market is pretty fantastic as well. Tons of young people from all over are moving here. Very vibrant right now.

I was referring to major cities. But you're right, some areas are a lot whiter than others. You could lump in ATL with Memphis and Detroit. Charleston, Baton Rouge, Birmingham, and Jackson not so much.
