NASHVILLE NEIGHBORHOOD MAP
Looking for a Nashville neighborhood map for location scouting or production research?
Nashville is made up of distinct neighborhoods and communities, each with its own architecture, streetscapes, density and overall look.
For productions unfamiliar with the city, neighborhood maps are a useful starting point for understanding where locations are and how different parts of Nashville relate to one another.

NASHVILLE NEIGHBORHOODS FOR LOCATION SCOUTING
Some commonly scouted areas include:
Downtown + Lower Broadway
Urban Nashville, honky-tonks, entertainment, rooftops, hotels and recognizable city streets.
East Nashville
Historic homes, bungalows, neighborhood commercial streets, restaurants and residential locations.
Inglewood
Mid-century homes, residential streets, larger lots and established neighborhoods.
Germantown
Historic architecture mixed with newer residential and commercial development.
The Nations
Industrial remnants, warehouses, newer development and residential streets.
Wedgewood-Houston
Industrial buildings, creative spaces, warehouses and contemporary development.
12 South
Residential streets, Craftsman-style homes and a busy neighborhood commercial corridor.
Belle Meade + West Nashville
Larger homes, estates, mature landscaping and upscale residential locations.
Madison
Mid-century commercial and residential properties with a more suburban feel.
These descriptions are only a starting point. Nashville changes quickly, and the visual character can shift considerably within a relatively small geographic area.
WHY NEIGHBORHOODS MATTER FOR PRODUCTION
The right neighborhood isn't only about finding the right look.
When scouting, also consider:
Distance between locations
Crew + production parking
Street width
Traffic
Noise
Nearby businesses
Residential density
Equipment access
Holding + basecamp
Permit requirements
Neighborhood events
Construction
Travel time during rush hour
Two locations that look close on a map can operate very differently once Nashville traffic and production vehicles are involved.
RESEARCHING A SPECIFIC PROPERTY?
If you've identified a potential location and need to research the property itself, Metro Nashville's Parcel Viewer can help identify parcel information and property ownership.
