Clarksville Overview

Situated in the northern tier of Tennessee in the hub of Montgomery County, Clarksville is a welcoming blue collar city with much to offer. Home to both popular universities as well as a short distance from the Kentucky line, this popular landing spot is a must-consider for anyone in the market for a new home in the south.

What is the history of Clarksville?

Settled all the way back in the late 1700s, Clarksville's local economy was initially built around tobacco cultivation. By 1820 the city was well on its way, boasting almost two dozen shops and an increased popularity among the steamboat stops. Railroads arrived later in the century, and in 1912 the city opened one of the first 'movie houses' in the vicinity. The Clarksville Memorial Hospital saw completion in 1954, and today the city remains one of the fastest-growing in the state.

How is the weather in Clarksville?

Spring tends to bring the best chance for rain in the region, and those calling Clarksville apartments home can expect some snow in the winter, although large accumulations are rare. Summers are typically hot, and the humid subtropical climate can lend itself historically to some strong weather patterns, including tornados.

How do I get around town?

A majority of those residing in apartments for rent in Clarksville rely on a private car or truck for getting around, although bus service, taxis and ride sharing options such as Lyft are readily available in most spots. Nashville's airport acts as the major commercial flight option, and while rail service is limited Grayhound and the like provide extended travel options.

What is the Clarksville commute like?

Interstate 24 is a prime roadway in the city, and U.S. Route 41A continues to Kentucky and beyond. A number of State Routes also criss-cross the city, including 13, 48 and 76. Those commuting to other job markets may want to allow some extra time during peak hours, but generally speaking traffic flows well in and around the city limits.

What are the local media outlets?

The city is home to the 'Leaf Chronicle', the oldest newspaper in all of Tennessee, and Clarksville rentals are readily within the grasp of many major broadcasting networks, from NBC to CBS.

Dunbar Cave is a great place to explore, and Port Royal State Park is one of the oldest of its kind in the region. The Roxy Theatre still shows classic cinema favorites, and the L&N Train Station acts as a living time capsule for days gone by.
