    Downtown Knoxville

    What's it like to live in Downtown Knoxville?

    Southern charm meets urban renewal in Downtown Knoxville, where historic buildings now house unique apartments with architectural details from the city's prosperous past. The walkable district centers around Market Square with its outdoor concerts, farmers markets, and dining options ranging from casual to sophisticated. Many buildings feature rooftop decks showcasing views of the Tennessee River and Smoky Mountains on the horizon. Some buildings lack dedicated parking requiring separate garage rentals, and weekend events can create noise that carries through historic buildings with limited soundproofing. Particularly appealing to young professionals and empty nesters who value walkable amenities and urban energy while appreciating the more manageable scale of Knoxville compared to larger southeastern cities.

    Inskip

    What's it like to live in Inskip?

    First-time homebuyers priced out of trendier districts are discovering rental values in Inskip, where mid-century ranch homes offer significantly more space than downtown Knoxville options. The neighborhood's proximity to both I-640 and I-75 creates quick access to major employment centers without lengthy commutes affecting quality of life. Unlike newer subdivisions with their cookie-cutter aesthetics, these properties feature established landscaping with mature trees providing natural shade during Tennessee's hot summers. The nearby Fountain City Park offers recreation facilities including duck ponds and playground equipment perfect for weekend activities without extensive planning. When considering rental options, properties on Woodland Avenue provide slightly better access to shopping and dining – a distinction worth noting for those seeking maximum convenience within this emerging North Knoxville community.

    Fountain City

    What's it like to live in Fountain City?

    Historic charm permeates Fountain City, where 1920s bungalows surrounding Fountain City Park's iconic duck pond create a small-town atmosphere within Knoxville's boundaries. Original plaster walls develop characteristic cracks during summer humidity spikes, requiring regular maintenance and dehumidifiers during the wettest months. The Central Avenue commercial district provides neighborhood essentials, including a beloved pie shop with limited but devoted following. Many properties feature distinctive front porches that foster community connections through impromptu evening gatherings, particularly during firefly season.

Knoxville Renter Confidence Survey

National study of renter’s satisfaction with their cities and states

Here’s how Knoxville ranks on:

Overview of Findings

Apartment List has released Knoxville’s results from the third annual Apartment List Renter Satisfaction Survey. This survey, which drew on responses from over 45,000 renters, provides insight on what states and cities must do to meet the needs of 111 million American renters nationwide.

"Knoxville renters expressed general satisfaction with the city overall," according to Apartment List. "Some categories received above average scores, and many received average scores."

Key findings in Knoxville include the following:

  • Knoxville renters gave their city a B- overall.
  • The highest-rated categories for Knoxville were affordability (A+), weather (A) and jobs and career opportunities (A).
  • The areas of concern to Knoxville renters are recreational activities (C+) and public transit (C).
  • Knoxville did relatively poorly compared to other Tennessee cities like Nashville (A-) but relatively well compared to Memphis (C).
  • Knoxville did relatively well compared to other cities nationwide, including Miami, FL (C+), New York, NY (C+) and Los Angeles, CA (C+).
  • The top rated cities nationwide for renter satisfaction include Scottsdale, AZ, Irvine, CA, Boulder, CO and Ann Arbor, MI. The lowest rated cities include Tallahassee, FL, Stockton, CA, Dayton, OH, Detroit, MI and Newark, NJ.

Renters say:

  • "Overall I love it, but it’s very spread out and that can make it hard to enjoy everything." – Hayley H.
  • "I love the proximity to outdoor activities. There’s lots to do and the growing coffee and craft brewery scene is great. But traffic can be surprisingly bad for such a small town, especially where the three highways meet." – Jill B.
  • "Love that people are friendly and there are lots of places to eat. But I hate that jobs seem to be low-income and traffic can be bad." – Frank J.
  • "Love the mountains and trails being so close. Tons of nature parks. But I hate that the sales taxes are so high." – Samantha H.
