The Good and the Not-So-Good
I love that this is a greatly diverse community with a large African American and Hispanic community around West Main St./Nachez (I'm addicted to Pueblo Real Mexican restaurant in that area...yum!!!). You won't find a lot of Franklin natives, though. I have lived here over a year and most people I have met are from other states. I have met many people from NY and California. I love the downtown area, with all of the historic homes. The Harlinsdale dog park is nice but you have to go at off times (not weekends) or you will be stuck in an overcrowded pen with too many dogs and gossipy effeminate men in skinny jeans with their "delicate dogs" , drinking their Starbucks and yelling at any dog that touches their dog. The weather in Franklin is really good most of the time and they have a lot of events downtown but I have to admit, after going to 3 or 4 of these events, they are the same vendors selling the same crafts and stuff at every event. The only difference is the theme.
The schools are really good and it is a great town for families with children.
