Tennessee is the state of prairies, towering mountains and country music. Inexpensive Tennessee real estate will also put a jump in your step.
Tennessee
Tennessee is a state with a little bit of everything. Parts of the states are comprised of lush, rolling fields with horse farms and agricultural. In other sections, you can find the Appalachian Mountains, which need no introduction. Of course, no mention of Tennessee would be complete without discussing the music scene. With cities such as Memphis, Tennessee is a mecca of music and, of course, the home of Elvis.
Memphis
If original music and an active nightlife are your things, Memphis is the city for you. The city is the home to vibrant blues, soul, country and rock scenes as well as numerous record labels. Historically, the economy of the city was tied to the cotton industry, but this is no longer the case in modern times. Instead, Memphis has become a modern city while maintaining its historic charm. If you are an avid Elvis fan, this is the place you will find Graceland.
Knoxville
Surrounded by no less than three mountain ranges, Knoxville is a picturesque city with a quiet atmosphere. Well, quiet so long as you don't live next to the University of Tennessee, which is located in Knoxville. With a huge student population, the town rallies around the football team by filling Neyland Stadium with over 100,000 people per game. You have to see it to believe it.
Nashville
When you think about Nashville, you think about country music. Over five million people Nashville each year to immerse themselves in it. Home to the Grand Ole Opry, Nashville is best experience by hitting the nightlife. If you love country music, Nashville may be a great relocation spot. If you don't, you should probably look for other locations.
Tennessee Real Estate
Despite being a physically appealing location with a hot nightlife, Tennessee real estate is very cheap. Single family homes in Memphis or Knoxville run in the $180,000 range, while the same home in Nashville is roughly $210,000. Tennessee real estate appreciated at a steady but modest rate of 6.8 percent in 2005.
