About 117,700 people lived inside the line at the 2020 census, in about 48,900 homes, by our count of Census blocks, more than in any other plan area.

  • Home value: Zillow’s typical value in ZIP code 37211 was $386,297 in September 2026.
  • Interstate: I-24 Exit 57 (Haywood Lane) is about 1.9 miles from the population center; I-65 Exit 74 (Old Hickory Boulevard) and Exit 78 (Harding Place) serve the west side.

Where it is

The community plan puts the boundaries at I-65 on the west, I-24 on the east, the CSX railroad on the north and Williamson County on the south. Its main roads are Old Hickory Boulevard and Harding Place, running east and west, and Nolensville Pike and Edmondson Pike, running north and south.

The plan names Crieve Hall, Tusculum, Paragon Mills, the Harding Place corridor and the Nolensville Pike corridor north of Old Hickory Boulevard as the established suburban neighborhoods in the north. Newer neighborhoods in the Cloverland Drive area and around Nippers Corner grew after 1990, including Lenox Village, a mixed-use neighborhood off Nolensville Pike. The Cane Ridge area in the far southeast is mostly rural. The plan also notes Travellers Rest, which it calls Nashville’s oldest residence, dating from 1799.

The plan’s main centers are along Nolensville Pike between the CSX railroad and TriStar Southern Hills Medical Center, and at the Bell Road/I-24 interchange. By 2020 Census block counts, about 56% of residents live in ZIP code 37211, 29% in 37013 and 9% in 37027, which Zillow files under Brentwood.

Home values

According to the Zillow Home Value Index (Zillow Research):

Area September 2026 September 2025 Change
ZIP code 37211 $386,297 $398,317 -3.0%
ZIP code 37013 $352,025 $362,994 -3.0%
ZIP code 37027 (Zillow files it under Brentwood) $1,220,331 $1,169,780 +4.3%
City of Nashville $425,889 $436,922 -2.5%

Zillow’s 37027 figure includes the Williamson County side, in Brentwood, so it says little about the Davidson County homes. ZIP code 37013 also covers Antioch. The index is a modeled typical value for the middle third of homes, not a sale price. More in our home prices guide.
