Just 20 minutes away from Nashville, Smyrna offers a sweet combination of economic opportunity, easy commutes, proximity to Nashville attractions (like Music Row and Titans games), low property tax bills, and family-friendly amenities.

The town is home to a [Nissan](https://www.townofsmyrna.org/about-us/history) car manufacturing plant, which has boosted the local economy since the 1980s; Moody’s Analytics predicts the area will continue to add jobs at a brisk rate through 2021.

The town has hundreds of acres of parkland, as well as multiple baseball and soccer fields. Residents can hike and play golf in [Sharp Springs Park](https://www.townofsmyrna.org/Home/Components/FacilityDirectory/FacilityDirectory/8/237), and canoe, kayak, or fish on [Stewart Creek](https://www.hookandbullet.com/fishing-stewart-creek-smyrna-tn/). Smyrna parks often host outdoor [movies](https://www.townofsmyrna.org/Home/Components/Calendar/Event/4514/417?backlist=%2Fresidents%2Frecreation%2Fparks-and-recreation) in summer, and other seasonal celebrations throughout the year. *—Gabriela Fernandez*
