Caring is the most important

With over a million people living here and half of the population is age friendly. Nashville is a vibrant city; More of the elderly population are living longer and staying at home, so there is definitely a need for Mature Caregivers.

Very age friendly. There are plenty of restaurants, jobs, etc to do.

I would say that Nashville would rank a 3.5/5 on age friendliness. It is very accommodating for younger professionals, with many tech and entertainment start ups, however many older professionals are being pushed out of their positions to make room for the younger generation. The school system in Davidson County and nearby Williamson County are ranked quite high and are generally considered to be progressive and inclusive. Many parts of Nashville are not pedestrian friendly, but the younger generation seems to be pushing for policies for a stronger public transportation system and neighborhoods that cater to pedestrians.
