Meh, I may be ignorant but in my opinion, Nashville is an awesome place to go to college, or be a young professional, but not live when you're in your 30s with a kid.

However, I will say that Franklin, just south of Nashville, seems like it would be an awesome place to raise a family.

When I say "Nashville", this is what I mean. Kind of like living "in Memphis" probably means living in Germantown.

same thing. when it takes 18 minutes to get from franklin to the heart of downtown nashville you might as well call it the same city.

As a former resident of Nashville in my 20s before kids, I agree with this.

If you are looking at the suburbs, you basically have three choices.

Franklin/Williamson County -
What the brochures and realtors will tell you: the quintessential happy family area. Great schools, beautiful neighborhoods.

What anc will tell you: If you want to be surrounded by debt millionaires and play the keep up with the Joneses' game, Williamson County is for you.

Mount Juliet
What the brochures and realtors will tell you: Nice little area east of Nashville, not as convenient as Franklin. Pretty good schools.

What anc will tell you: Very underrated. Not as fake as Williamson County, some nice neighborhoods in the Providence area.

Sumner County/Hendersonville
What the brochures and realtors will tell you: Hot area, growing. Home prices are a bargain. Good schools.

What anc will tell you: Be careful. Some parts of Hendersonville (Station Camp HS zone) are great, others are white trash mecca (Hendersonville HS zone)
