Memphis Overview

Memphis, Tennessee is a place where you can feel lost in time, surrounded by rich history and the roots of some of today’s most popular music. Southern hospitality and tradition combine with modern comfort and a sense of belonging in Tennessee’s largest city, which still manages to retain the quiet charms of simple living. From the vibrant neighborhoods of Downtown Memphis to the majestic Mississippi River, there is no shortage of variety to be found by people staying in apartments in Memphis. Also, you can’t visit this sunny getaway without trying some legendary Memphis barbecue.

What is the history of Memphis?

Memphis was founded in 1819, by future president Andrew Jackson and two other individuals, who named it after a capital of ancient Egypt. In the 19th century, Memphis prospered as a center of trade as well as transportation thanks to its location above the Mississippi River. The region’s placement also helped it become a leader in both the cotton and lumber industries. Between 1900 and 1950 the city’s population nearly quadrupled, as it was a magnet for immigrants as well as workers from beyond its territories. It was also a pivotal setting in regards to the civil rights movement, as the large population of African Americans in Memphis was faced with rampant racial segregation in the 1960s. A strike by mostly African American sanitation workers seeking better wages and living conditions led to the arrival of Martin Luther King, Jr, who delivered his final speech in Memphis before his assassination.

How is the weather in Memphis?

Memphis features a humid subtropical climate, featuring winters that range from mild to chilly with an average temperature in the 40s °F for the month of January. Snow is uncommon, although ice and freezing rain have been known to occur. The spring months are usually accompanied by thunderstorms, which can include hail as well as heavy winds. Summer in Memphis can be influenced by either Texas or the Gulf of Mexico, and can be very hot and humid, or hot and very humid. The average high temperature is in the lower 80s °F during the summer, although humidity levels can be high as a result of the moisture from the Gulf. While thunderstorms can be frequent on summer days, they are usually over quickly. Autumn starts off mild and dry, and can turn cooler with more rain as winter approaches.

How do I get around town?

Memphis’ transit authority operates the city’s bus system as well as trolleys that allow easy access to the various attractions tourists might want to visit. Memphis apartments Downtown are within walking distance of many sightseeing destinations, and the presence of public transportation makes it possible for you to see everything worth seeing without the need for a car. There are even free shuttle rides available that provide access to some of the local landmarks. Memphis International Airport is one of the top 50 busiest passenger airports in the United States. Additionally, Memphis Central Station offers access to both the Memphis trolley system as well as Amtrak trains. Bike lanes have also seen a recent increase in Memphis, creating new possibilities for economical, responsible travel.

What is the Memphis commute like?

Memphis has more highways than any of the other cities located in the Southeastern United States. I-40 goes coast to coast, eventually reaching North Carolina to the east and Los Angeles to the west. I-55 links Memphis to Missouri and Chicago to the north, and New Orleans to the south, while I-240 serves the inner workings of the city by connecting Midtown, Downtown, North Memphis, South Memphis, East Memphis and the airport. Although Memphis is the most populous city in Tennessee, commuters in Memphis rank better than most other U.S. cities in terms of their time spent driving. The roads can get busy at times, but things move quickly enough that people who fear gridlock traffic needn’t be concerned.

What are the local media outlets?

The Memphis Daily News serves as a dependable source for local and far-reaching news as well as information regarding commerce and business. On television, WREG-TV broadcasts 40 hours of newscasts on a weekly basis. Popular radio stations include WEVL 89.9 FM (listener supported, volunteer radio with a random selection), KXHT 107.1 FM (rap and hip hop), WRBO 103.5 FM (soul classics) and KJMS 101.1 FM (urban contemporary).
