Nashville

Nashville is the capital and most populous city of the U.S. state of Tennessee. The city is the county seat of Davidson County and is located on the Cumberland River.[6] It is the 23rd most-populous city in the United States.

Named for Francis Nash, a general of the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War, the city was founded in 1779. The city grew quickly due to its strategic location as a port on the Cumberland River and, in the 19th century, a railroad center. Nashville seceded with Tennessee during the American Civil War; in 1862 it was the first state capital in the Confederacy to fall to Union troops. After the war, the city reclaimed its position and developed a manufacturing base. (Wikipedia)

“Nashville undeniably has the “it factor.” How do we know? Well, people are coming here in waves, and it’s not slowing down. This bustling city’s creative vibe and welcoming spirit draw more than just artists. Major businesses like HCA Healthcare, Nissan and Bridgestone Americas are headquartered here, and Amazon plans to open its Operations Center of Excellence in the region in 2021. For those looking to hit the books, more than 30 higher education institutions are available, and we probably don’t have to tell you, but the options for dining, shopping and entertainment are amazing.” —Livability, Nashville
