It's very dependent on your experience - where you go, what you do. Broadway is pretty much solely a tourist destination so avoid that area, but 12 South, The Gulch, Midtown, even East Nash are all awesome areas and you can avoid the dbags that think they run the town.

Plus Demonbreun and 21st are areas I avoid like the plague. Hell, 12 South is getting that way.

Well traveling for work I always made sure to google the hip neighborhoods where locals congregate. Considering I end with a bunch of down time I usually avg 2 (try to make them unique type) museums per city. So I'll usually do dive bars, museums, hot restaurants. I'll study over google maps and get a good lay of the land and utilize a city's public transportation along with uber.
And for the most part in a week i get a good idea of the feeling of a city considering I'm actually interested in urban centers, the demography and anthropology and why the place is even set where it is.
Over all I found Nashville to be lacking. There is some neat neighborhoods but they don't have as much flavor as they would like
to think they do and some aren't as accessible a and walkable as they would like to think. I also found a lot of the people I met repping Nash didn't even live in Nash.
I don't know. I will agree with the other thread that Nashville may be a lot like Austin but in one way, it's overrated. Not that they aren't cool places, it's just that many people put them way too high on a pedestal making them overrated by definition.
