Safest Cities in Tennessee (2020)

How safe is living in Tennessee? Curious about Tennessee crime rates before moving to Tennessee? In this video I review a recent article posted by AdvisorSmith analyzing cities and towns in Tennessee by their reported crime data. They looked at towns, midsize cities, and large cities in Tennessee. I am not an expert on crime; I am only reviewing this article and passing along the information. Before you move, make sure you double check the safety of the city you're choosing to relocate to.
Check out the article by AdvisorSmith to see where your city ranks 👉 advisorsmith.com/data/safest-...
📌 Please note! Ethically I do not choose areas for ANYONE, most especially commenting on what's a "good" or "bad" area. This is called steering, and it is a fair housing violation. Also, due to some unfortunate misunderstandings in the past, note that I am a real estate professional, not a tour guide. The goal with this channel is to empower YOU to decide where is best for you to live.
I'm Rachael Hadidsaz, a local Tennessee Realtor®️ with eXp Realty in Murfreesboro, TN. As a lifelong resident of Tennessee, I can’t imagine living anywhere but here. I grew up in Cookeville, TN and attended the University of Tennessee in Knoxville before relocating to Murfreesboro in 2016. I know firsthand what it’s like moving to a new city where you may not know anyone or much about the area. My goal with this channel is to empower the public on what life is like in the Murfreesboro area, and a taste of what Tennessee living is, so that YOU can make the best decision for you and your family.

    I am shopping for a place in Tennessee and am looking for something quite specific. If you look at my channel you’ll see I’m quite secluded and remote, but recently the undeveloped property next door started getting developed. I’m trying to find 30+ acres to safely seclude so I can play around and build my dreams yet be close to a small town for basic needs while I’m establishing sustainability. Do you help people with rural/remote land purchases? :)

It was CRAZY to hear someone robbed the bank here! It was like, a one time thing that's how safe it is here. We've only got like 5,000 ppl tho, maybe we didnt have enough ppl to even count.

    I live in here in Portland too, I was raised here and raising my own kids here, Portland has grown over the last 10 to 12 years. We have almost 14,000 people probably more cause how much we have grown in the past 2 years. Portland is terrible, between crimes murders and drugs and a lot of sex offenders. It use to be a great small town 15 years ago but not no more. I'm eventually going to move hopefully I can find a small town like Portland use to be (Mayberry)

    @@chasitycollins8625 wow we really have that many ppl now? its been a long while since i looked at corey b's sign near my dads road, so now we might! doesnt feel like it tho, always the same faces. everywhere. lol its never been terrible where i live, ive lived in different parts of portland during my life and been to most places and visited others around town. im a homemaker tho and not in the thick of things politically, but the worst thing i ever saw was the rental house on the corner that my grandma used to own on mglothlin street was broken into because it sat empty for a while and some homeless ppls stuff caught fire under the bridge so they needed a place to stay the night in the middle of winter. that was a few years ago. ive never seen much crime anywhere around me, i do live a mayberryesque existence here in portland. even over on strawberry street its not as "dangerous" as other places like nashville. it might be the poor side of town, but poor and shabby doesnt mean outright dangerous or criminal. i could walk through the neighborhood and nobody is going to pull a gun on me, or stab me and run, or steal my purse right out of my hand. i love my drakewood drive here beside the lake. my road is super safe, but i can also feel safe walking around town anywhere and l know that nobody is going to straight up attack me. try that in some parts of nashville and tell me how safe you feel walking down the road in some neighborhoods! my mother in law is other side of the tracks portland and im around the poorer parts of town a lot but i dont consider anywhere crime hotspots or anything. it may suck sometimes but just because ppl have it hard doesnt mean there is a den of criminals lurking everywhere because of it. that is one thing, portland is lower income and ppl around here struggle. its why our town doesnt look its best. but most ppl just leave you alone. crime here isnt all that bad compared to the rest of the world. there havent been a lot murders. maybe the odd one on the outskirts in a domestic dispute or something that nobody really even knew happened till someone mentions it a week later, but nobody has been mugged in cash savers parking lot or knifed at food lion while shopping or shot at a red light or killed in a meth lab explosion. nobody has had their prescriptions snatched from them at cvs. no shootings. no kidnappings right in a store like you see some places happen in broad daylight that make your jaw drop. no car jackers leaving you in fear having to shop fast or it might not be there when you come out. that's crime people need to know about. some random thing happening with a crazy neighbor here and there isnt "crime" that ppl are always on the lookout for when they go somewhere. i cant recall any instances right off hand where someone busted up into someones house and robbed them at gunpoint or murdered an entire family and dismembered them, strowing pieces all over the lawn. i mean, if it did it was one time thing. (not the severed limb all over the lawn thing thats never happened knock on wood lol) not even roaving packs of karens in our stores. a karen here is a rare occurrence. (well, a karen in full sight, we have closet karens all over the place lol) just saying we've had a thing or three happen around here but not that anyone is in immediate danger from in the aftermath. home invasions are a regular occurrence in some cities. its stuff ppl think about every day. i dont here. i protect myself and am prepared, but dont expect someone to, like i said, just bust in and rob us. the big stuff, it just doesnt happen here. the very worst thats going on around here regularly is petty theft, change being snatched out of your console if you forget to lock your car while youre in the store and such, and its not like every car everywhere is being broken into on a daily basis or anything. lock up and its fine, we're not seeing cars stripped bare and left up on cinder blocks. there isnt a town in the world that could be very much more safe, and if it IS safer its only a technicality because of statistics with the aforementioned instances still happening there as well. this is the world we live in, and here is safe as it gets. it might look prettier somewhere else but cant have very much less crime than we do here. there isnt an actual mayberry that you can live blindly in and never have to pay attention to your surroundings. maybe theres one out there, but if we all move there then it wouldnt BE that perfect mayberry anymore. even in the places deemed "safest" the things you described still happen. ive been here 31 years and never has a crime been perpetrated against me. my only complaint is about the ROADS, man. you know what i mean girl! lol they should sink some money into portland instead and fill the holes (not just a shoddy patch job i mean REPAVE the whole way up and down from franklin to gallatin and lafayette to the interstate and everywhere in between!! it NEEDS it! lol) and get some trees and bushes up for us along the roadsides and whatnot like they do in hendersonville then portland wouldnt have anything bad about it except high rent prices for what you get and what happens when it rains! the grass is always greener on the other side... but then you get to the other side and it's no better there than where you started. that's portland, the place we start. a town that needs to be decorated better and have all its roads fixed and it would be better. all it really needs is that new coat of paint! (or pavement, if you will lol)

    Here is something that doesn't show up in statistics. Is "Why the crime happened". I read in an article by Maxwell Gladstone (I think) that basically in the South as long as you don't piss somebody off, you are going to be relatively safe. With opiods and meth I am sure that is changing but I think it is safer than many other areas.

    As a law enforcement officer for over 39 years now, I can assure you that simply not "pissing somebody off" absolutely is not an accurate way of looking at crime data. Nor is it going to reduce your risk of crime! That concept is total misinformation by whomever wrote the article.
