Franklin in Simpson County, Kentucky was the site of the Battle of Franklin in 1864 in which the Confederates lost more generals than in any other. Arthur MacArthur, Jr., "The Boy Colonel" fought for the Union forces and survived. It is conjectured that had he died, the life of his son Douglas, and the course of the Second World War, and indeed the world, would have been different, but that's a story for another day.

Franklin, the county seat, is located on exits two and six of the I-65. Nashville, Tennessee lies 45 minutes to the south. Bowling Green, Kentucky is 25 minutes to the north. But the city has much more to offer than just its excellent location. It is considered, with good reason, as one of 50 best small southern towns. If you're idea of quality living includes Southern cuisine, great bourbon, bluegrass, jazz and practicing the art of Southern hospitality, then Franklin is where you'd want to relocate to.

Moving to Franklin

A little due diligence will enable you to make a smooth move to Franklin and quickly get settled into a new routine. An online apartments locator can help you select properties to choose from. The city's vacancy rate is on par with the national average; the percentage of houses rented, though, is higher. This suggests that while acquiring a duplex for rent in Franklin may not be as much of a fight as it would be in Louisville; you'd still want to go in prepared with the necessary papers ready such as pay slips, present residential address, a copy of your driver's license, and if you have a pet, its vaccination records. Sixty percent of the houses date to before 1990 so you may want to make it a point to check that the premises have been maintained properly. Before you sign the lease papers, make sure you know about Kentucky law and local ordinances on issues such as the process for getting the security deposit back, length of notice for a change in the rent amount, situations in which you can withhold rent, etc.

Neighborhoods in Franklin

The home rentals market in Franklin is a little different in each of the four neighborhoods. Variables include rent rates, property type, and commute times.

City Center: This is the smallest and the priciest neighborhood. Slightly higher rent than in the other three neighborhoods is justified by easy access to I-65 and the excellent eating establishments there. It is also the only neighborhood with high-rises where you can look for available furnished apartments. Papa John's Pizza and Taco Bell are on N. Main Street that borders this neighborhood and Turnertown.

Turnertown: This rural neighborhood consists mainly of owner-occupied medium-sized homes. Morgantown Road runs through the length of this neighborhood. Main Street, that goes to Bowling Green, marks the border between this neighborhood and the City Center. Pistols 'n' Petticoats, a children's clothing store, Redbird Boutique and Antique, Roxy amphitheater, Simpson County Archives, and Goodnight Library are some of the conveniences located at and around the junction of Main Street and Cedar Street.

Peden Mill: Vacancy rates in Peden Mill for housing for rent are on the higher side as compared to those in most other parts of Franklin. Property here is mainly owner occupied. Peden Mill Road connects Nashville Road with I-65. McDonald's and Burger King in the vicinity vie for your attention.

Neosheo: The only suburban neighborhood in the city. It lies on the Kentucky-Tennessee border. A good place to look up medium-sized single-family homes and apartment complexes. Steele Rd. passing through this neighborhood is the site for several well-loved locations such as the Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, popular for its hearty dishes.

Living in Franklin

Franklin has earned a walk score of 58, which means that there will be some tasks for which you will have to take the car out of the garage. Or maybe not, just get those tasks done when going to work or coming back home. 80 percent of the city's population enjoys a less than 30-minute one-way commute to work.

There's a lot you can do with your time here. If cravings for Mexican food grip you then Sol Azteca on Nashville Rd. is the place to check out. Brick Yard CafÌ© is the go-to place for residents on W. Cedar St., try the pork chops or seared cod. The atmosphere makes it doubly enjoyable.

If you're a golf lover then the Kenny Perry golf course at Kenny Perry Dr. is ideal for a few holes of invigorating play. If you're lucky, PGA star Kenny Perry might be on hand to give you a tip or two on your swing.

Octagon Hall Museum, one of the most famous buildings in the county, is a good place to revisit the region's history and also participate in ghost hunts. Franklin is richly supplied with natural and man-made attractions as are the towns around it. Southern comfort beckons.
