Off-campus housing near Lipscomb clusters in the neighborhoods just north and west of campus along Granny White Pike, with Green Hills standing out as the most convenient option, close to campus and with its own shops, restaurants, and the Mall at Green Hills. Renters also look toward 12 South and the Belmont/Hillsboro Village area, both a short drive or bike ride away, for a similar mix of walkable retail and restaurants with easier access to Midtown.
Lipscomb's location near I-65, I-440, and Highway 431 makes driving straightforward, and that easy highway access means some renters choose to live farther from campus, in neighborhoods like Berry Hill or near 100 Oaks, in exchange for lower rent.
Downtown Nashville sits about five miles north, close enough for an occasional commute but far enough that most Lipscomb-area renters rely on a car day to day rather than walking or biking everywhere.
Because Lipscomb is a smaller private university with a significant share of graduate and professional students, off-campus demand is less concentrated in any single student-heavy strip than it might be near a larger public school. Apartment List lets you compare off-campus listings near Lipscomb by price, distance to campus, and amenities, so you can decide which neighborhood tradeoff works best for you.
