Clarksville, TN

Clarksville is a place where the past meets the present. It may be Tennessee’s oldest city, but it is one of the fastest-growing cities in the United States.

It is also a great place for young families and commuters who want to get away from Nashville to find more affordable homes, more green space and countryside, and even more business opportunities. Both new residents and businesses are attracted to the area each year, because they see how prosperous the city is and has been since the days of its booming tobacco business.

But it is not all about business here. Clarksville is a very community-oriented city that loves to have fun and enjoy good times with the neighbors. From the “Back to School Splash” to the Liberty Live Summer Concert Series, there is always something going on for locals of all ages. When you just need to get away from it all, the dozens of state and local parks, the riverwalk, the greenway, the marina, and the Cumberland and Red Rivers provide ample opportunities for peace and quiet, as well as recreation and entertainment.
