Clarksville is the nation's top city for millennials.

From the company Improvenet and reported by CLARKSVILLE NOW.COM

Quote

Home ownership has long been part of the American Dream, and in Clarksville it’s possible for those under 35. Improvenet, the company conducting the study, used the most recent US Census Bureau data to analyze more than 170 cities nationwide with populations greater than 150,000 to find the top cities for millennial home ownership.

The company found that “nationwide, millennials make up roughly 11% of homeowners in cities with populations over 150,000, but in Clarksville that average more than doubles to 23%.”

The top 5 cities for millennial homeowners included:
1. Clarksville, TN (23.0%)
2. Grand Rapids, MI (19.5%)
3. Sioux Falls, SD (18.2%)
4. Minneapolis, MN (16.7%)
5. Atlanta, GA (16.4%)

And the article had a link to another bragging rights story from Money Magazine....The Best City To Live In!

Quote

Clarksville, Tennessee might not be on your radar yet, but it should be, and it’s MONEY’s No. 1 Best Place to Live in 2019. To all the millennials moving in, the city of about 160,000 people is a place they can afford to plant down roots. The average age of a Clarksville resident is only 29, almost a decade younger than the state of Tennessee as a whole.

Looks like Dover-owned Nashville Superspeedway in Wilson County  is reopening in full, including scoring a NASCAR cup level race starting next year.   That would seem to cover the high level racing needs for this region.

Wow!  That's the last thing I expected.  I thought that area was toast, as far as racing.  Very interesting stuff.

Btw...if this happens and become permanent, I'd imagine the Bristol guys will drop their pursuit of expanding and upgrading the Nashville Speedway.
