1. low property taxes, no state income tax
2. great climate and geography. hills, lakes, caves, waterfalls and creeks abound. marked bicycle paths are on just about every major thoroughfare
3. healthcare hub of the south
4. higher education; vanderbilt, belmnot, libscomb, MTSU, trevecca, austin peay, a zillion community colleges and with TN promise, **EVERYONE** who graduates from high school gets free tuition for 2 year degrees and you can pick where to go.
5. nightlife - the gulch, midtown, east nashville, downtown, 12 south, world class symphony, Frist museum, bridgestone arena, nissan stadium, a jaw-dropping juggernaut of a convention center etc.
6. economy to die for - jobs are so plentiful so its an employees' market and construction is BOOMING.
7. food. nashville is officially restaurant central.
8. williamson county public schools tops in the south. forget paying $10k+ year to put your kids in a decent school.
9. housing - whether you want to be an urbanite and live in an amazing high rise downtown or opt for a quiet 2 acre plot south of town you can afford it.
10. even with nashville as large as it is, traffic is nothing like comparable cities.
11. the women..OMG..every hot 21yo wants to be a star and moves to nashville.

They actually move here for other reasons, but there are TONS of single, hot 22-35 year old women. Its crazy.

It’s a big city in the South that stills feels kind of small (esp. compared to ATL, Houston, etc.), that is VERY safe, has unlimited things to do i.e. nightlife/shopping/restaurants/outdoors stuff, has lots of jobs, and is close to almost all SEC towns. Girls here are from all over the Southeast.

See my post above. Its not music, its a lot other reasons.

Its also the #2 bachelorette party destination in America behind Vegas for the same reasons. Any given weekend night downtown and I'll see 8-10 bachelorette parties and I'm not even slightly exaggerating.

Have you seen the prices in Sylvan Park? 1,000 square foot homes are going for $300,000. These 1,700 3 bedroom, 1 bath homes in East Nashville's Five Points/Shelby Bottoms are going for $500,000.
