Yes. FedEx, AutoZone and International Paper Company are all based in Memphis.

Entergy is Fortune 500, and though it’s not a great utility company Teedy is well on her way to driving their HQ to Houston. Just a matter of time LA will be at zero.

Memphis has two separate parts of town that are absolutely terrible and responsible for the vast majority of violent crime. It's inexcusable, but it is what it is, and the good part is that these two areas of town are not essential to travel to or through.

If you think the rest of the city is a shithole, you are very mistaken.

NEWSFLASH: Most cities in the US have the same issues. Its mostly lower class and upper class people. The lower class have a bigger population than the upper class. Where there is poverty there is a lot of crime.

There are some areas that are not as bad as others.

And before someone says "______ isn't like that" that's why I said most.. and not all".

Went to Graceland 20 years ago. To think that was where someone mega rich lived in the 50’s/60’s. That wouldn’t be a pool house to celebrities these days.
