    #1 Best Places to Live in Wilson County

    Current Resident: Mount Juliet is a growing town with plenty of nice people. The town has lots of things to do and the community is great. For a high school student, there is also lots of community service opportunities and job opportunities alike. The schools here are great as well. Mount Juliet High School is a top ranked school with the academic success to back it up. Overall, MJ as we call it, is a great place to be!

    #2 Best Places to Live in Wilson County

    Current Resident: I absolutely love the area we live in! Greenhill is the area between Hermitage and Mount Juliet off of Lebanon Road in Tn. We sit in a position where we fall in Wilson County lines, however, the half of our neighborhood falls in Davidson County lines. We have a lake that is within five minutes driving distance, and 30 minutes walking distance. It's quiet, peaceful, and safe. A police officer lives just two streets over.

  3. Lebanon

    • Town in Tennessee
    • 102 reviews
    #3 Best Places to Live in Wilson County

    Current Resident: Lebanon is a semi-big town with a small town feel. The people are kind and the faces are friendly! Many of those who have been here for awhile will always greet others by name. It is a usually quiet town but every now and then the parades bring out the fanfare! We are also growing every day! It seems like you can drive down any road in town and see a new business pop up or beautiful new housing! Lebanon is still growing in nightly entertainment but we aren't but 30-45 minutes from most of the larger surrounding towns and Nashville! What's great about Lebanon is you can have a house in the middle of the country and still be 10-15 mintues from town! Lebanon is a town with a big heart and is always making room for more home grown families!

  5. Watertown

    • Town in Tennessee
    • 2 reviews

    Niche User: I live in a small town in middle Tennessee called Watertown. I have lived here since I was 5 years old and am moving away to school soon, about 45 minutes away. This town holds some very dear memories as I have had some good times on almost every road in the area. I love this area because you don't have to go far to get out and away from all of the lights and get out into the country, but you also don't have to go far to reach the city (closest large city being Nashville, about 40 minutes away.) The people in this small town are generally very hospitable and kind, however you do eventually cross paths with the opposite of that, as you would anywhere else. This tiny town may not look like much, but it's home and I wouldn't trade the memories I've made here for anything.
