Nashville’s West End is a sprawling district filled with a mix of suburban and urban neighborhoods. The family-friendly atmosphere on this part of town is largely made up of safe residential streets and a tight-knit community. Within the West End, there are two universities: Lipscomb University and Belmont University. The college town feel is apparent in the West End, and there are great public and private schools to brag about as well.

West End’s residential streets are a mix of stately homes, longstanding homes, and upscale apartment communities. The Mall at Green Hills is the best opportunity for locals to enjoy a wide variety of retailers, and nearby, check out the Bluebird Café, an iconic live music venue. Historic mansions, museums, sites, and landmarks sit throughout West End, such as the Belmont Mansion near the university.
