Chattanooga Overview

Known as a great place for work and play, Chattanooga is a mid-sized city that’s small enough to feel intimate, yet large enough to boast high-profile employers, cultural centers and entertainment venues. “Scenic City,” as Chattanooga is aptly called, is justifiably famous for its riverboat-dotted waterfront, as well as the mountains both encircling and even crossing through the area. Those setting out on the hunt for perfect apartments in Chattanooga will find a rich banquet of neighborhoods, architecture and budgets from which to choose.

Why live in Chattanooga, TN?

Steeped in history while keeping an eye toward a diverse, eco-friendly future, Chattanooga offers a rich selection of neighborhoods for those planning to move to the area. Chattanooga apartments, for example, are available in ultra-modern riverview developments, in older buildings surrounded by Civil War monuments, or in sustainably-minded urban neighborhoods -- as well as in a variety of other downtown and greater Chattanooga areas.
