Current Resident: Farragut is a beautiful community. There are walking paths all round the town to encourage you to get outdoor and move your body, which I love! There are also all the amenities you could ever want with a small town feel. The school are some of the best in the state and lots of family friendly activities multiple times a year. With so much at your finger tips in Farragut, it’s hard to not fall in love with the town and surrounding areas.... Read 86 reviews

Current Resident: The town is very safe and welcoming, with it having a national laboratory and being a big science town, Oak Ridge is fairly diverse. There are sidewalks and bike lanes throughout the entire city which is amazing for outdoor runners like myself! The school system has been exceptional to have attended. The only change I suggest having lived here for 22 years is to expand young adult life with fun hip restaurants or bars or an outdoor food truck park. Oak Ridge is currently very aged and a great place to retire, but it lacks the youthful center that the neighboring Knoxville has.... Read 81 reviews

Parent: We have one daughter in K at NPS (she started in nursery). We love NPS and could not be happier with our choice! She has been through so much change these past several years and it’s impossible to overstate how much social emotional growth and support she’s experienced at NPS. She’s also had tremendous academic growth and is reading, writing, doing simple math, is curious about the world and loves learning. Probably my favorite part about the school are the wonderful specials — my daughter loves the singing, art, music, drama, sports. She even comes home talking about what it means to be a good person based on the core values that are woven through the school lessons and chapels. We also love the administration and the laid back, modest parent community. NPS is a very special school!... Read 36 reviews

Town in Tennessee
Current Resident: I actually fell in love with this area 3 years ago. It has a beautiful small town charm. I felt safe going into stores in this area because they have security in and outside of the stores. That made me feel safer in my environment. We don’t have to leave the area that we live in because it offers many types of restaurants and retail stores. When it comes to cleanliness, this is one of the cleanest areas that I’ve ever seen in Memphis. Everyone is polite and nonjudgmental. Honestly, with me being a 5’11 African American female that says a lot about this area. I love Snowden School because my son was going through cancer treatments and dealing with ADHD. They’re hands on and helpful when it comes to keeping him focused on his schoolwork. I feel like I have found own piece of heaven on Earth. The only downside is the that the cost of living is higher in this area. That’s to be expected living in a area like this and it’s worth it.... Read 3 reviews

Former Resident: Maryville was a very small town but over the last few years it has experienced a huge increase in people and businesses, which has not slowed down. Maryville has many places to go and have amazing experiences, like McKay's, my favorite bookstore and we even have a drive in theater. But if you are more interested in the outdoors the Great Smoky Mountains are right in our backyard. If those things don't win you over we have Knoxville and Alcoa right next door so all your tourist dreams can be fulfilled. The people hear are very friendly and will treat you like family as soon as move in. The true pinnacle of Southern hospitality.... Read 143 reviews

City in Tennessee
Current Resident: I would not want to live anywhere else! Knoxville, Tennessee is the perfect size, in my opinion, because it is big enough to where you are always meeting new people and trying new things, but small enough to where it doesn't feel overwhelming and you can stay connected to your roots. I think there are many educational opportunities because of Knoxville great schools around town and a university in the middle of downtown Knoxville. I also think there is always something to do! There are always new pop ups or small businesses opening up around town, and many beautiful parks or places with a great view of the city. Along with that I feel a sense of safety and community in Knoxville. Everything is well kept, landscaped, and clean as well as the many safe neighborhoods that are available all over the city. I feel safe at home, at school, and at all of my activities around town. I'm very thankful for having the opportunity to live in such an amazing city like Knoxville, Tennessee.... Read 664 reviews
