A Little About Lebanon

Considered to be “one of the prettiest of Tennessee’s country towns,” according to Lebanon, Tennessee’s official website, the once home to Native Americans, living amongst cane breaks and cedar groves, is now a thriving, modern, cultural city.

Lebanon does retain some of its antiquated charm and historic richness. The long – standing town square is still dotted with small boutiques, shops and antique markets.

This home to five of Tennessee’s governors is a popular living destination for several reasons. The medium home price is modest, there exists the serenity of rural living, but the location of Lebanon is close to larger, more urban hubs, making commutes convenient and improving property value.

If you’re looking to relocate to Tennessee and build a family, Lebanon is a sound location to begin seeking real estate. There is a movement to make the city more walker and biker friendly, and within the city limits, there are endless amenities appropriate for raising a family. Several baseball fields and parks, retail and large – chain shopping options, dining opportunities, a hospital, university and mall are all within city limits.

Lebanon also boasts a municipal airport and the Music City Star rail line helps commuters make the 28-mile trek from Lebanon to Nashville during the week and for special events. There are several options for education – Lebanon Special School District, Wilson County School District, Cumberland University – and for the most part, the climate is clean and mild.

According to Lebanon’s official website, there are currently approximately 10,519 housing units in the city. Ninety–four percent of these are occupied, with around 60 percent being owned and 40 being rented. The median value of a single-unit, owner-housed space is around $145,000.

Lebanon is a forward-thinking Tennessee city that offers job opportunities, places to eat, shop, play, with amenities for families, couples and single dwellers. It retains its history and somewhat rustic charm while managing to keep up with the changes in times.
