Where it is

The community plan puts Madison between the Cumberland River, Briley Parkway, I-65 and the city of Goodlettsville, and Sumner County. Gallatin Pike runs north and south through it and Old Hickory Boulevard (State Route 45) east and west. The plan describes the area as running from RiverGate Mall to rural lower Neely’s Bend.

It names Woodlawn Estates, Madison Park and Heron Walk, east of historic downtown Madison, as urban neighborhoods with small lots near the Gallatin Pike bus line. It lists the Graycroft Avenue area, Sheppard Hills Drive and Spring Branch Drive east of RiverGate, and upper Neely’s Bend as suburban. OpenStreetMap also marks Amqui and Edenwold as named places.

Goodlettsville, split between Davidson and Sumner counties, kept its own charter when Metro formed and elects its own city council. See our Nashville vs Goodlettsville comparison. By 2020 Census block counts, about 77% of residents live in ZIP code 37115 and 23% in 37072.
