Brentwood, TN- Nice Place, But Lost It's Charm - 10/9/2019
Brentwood 10 years ago was amazing! But over development, traffic, and road widening projects have killed some of the joy and this town has lost it's small town, quiet, bedroom community feel. Horse farms have been replaced with new development. Some hills have been leveled for TownHome communities. Roads are always congested. Real estate is now arguably overpriced. New people continue to flood into the area which amplifies all of the above concerns. Crime has also increased with influx of people, but you don't typically hear about it in the media (talk to local police and they can tell you some stories).

On the bright side: schools are rated good. Most homes, albeit overpriced, are fairly nice. In general area is safe (lots of crime in form of vehicle break ins, but no so much violent nature... excluding some recent scary stuff like rapes at local Read More

Looking to Relocate to Nashville? LOOK in Brentwoo - 7/21/2014
I am one of a very small group that grew up here in Brentwood. I have travelled all over and there is really not another place quite like here. I know I could be a bit biased, but you can ask anyone that is from here and/or has visited the area. The main reason why people like it here is how nice the people are. The area is obviously nice and we have been ranked as the fastest growing city in the country by CNN. Alot of people have noticed as well, there has been a report that the Greater Nashville are could experience 1.6MM people relocating here in the next six years. Hopefull not but that is what the current trend is leading to. The area has some of the best public education in the country public and private from grade school-college choices. The area is well worth taking a look at if you are looking to relocate to Nashville. Nashville is a young city if you like to get out at night you want to live downtown in the Gulch or surrounding areas. Unlike Brentwood/Franklin which is more Read More

High Schools in Brentwood - 10/24/2007
We recently visited Brentwood, both of the public schools looked great. I understand Ravenwood is new and wonderful. Which would be best for "new" kids to fit in? What about academic's? Any suggestions for making the decession between the two? Franklin also looked good, any information about the IB program. Someone told me they have a nursery for the students children! Is this true? Thanks for your Read More

Brentwood or Stepford? - 4/7/2007
Reliable, predictable and consistent are all good words to describe Brentwood. It’s like a chain restaurant: when you walk in the door, you know exactly what you’re going to get. Many people like the security these attributes bring. Others will grow bored with the monotony. All the houses are brink. Every yard has a Bradford Pear Tree. Everyone goes to church on Sunday. If there was a real Stepford, it would be Read More

Nice part of town - 9/20/2006
Brentwood is a very nice part of town. Brentwood is kind of in between Nashville and Franklin but closer to Franklin. I think Brentwood is on the boarder of Williamson county which is the wealthiest county in Tennessee. Officially I believe it is in Davidson county though.

The Homes in Brentwood are not cheap. A moderate sized home will probably run about $180,000. There are some older areas of Brentwood so you can probably find some cheaper homes in those areas. But there are alot of very large homes in Brentwood with alot of property.

Climate in Brentwood is similar to Nashville. Cold winters with a little snow but mainly sleet is the problem. During Summers the temp can get up to 96 or so. But at least this area has all 4 seasons.

I'm not sure how much history is in Brentwood but theres some in Franklin which isn't far from Brentwood. Brentwood is surrounded by hills and trees and for the most part is very clean and classy looking.
