Best In Tennessee Real Estate™: Memphis

Germantown leads Tennessee in the share of homes valued at $1 million or more — 15.4%, according to ALEX Intelligence’s latest analysis of 2024 American Community Survey data. This is not a national ranking, nor is it about the city’s size; it’s about where wealth is being concentrated. In the Memphis metro, Germantown is #1 of 5 cities, and in Tennessee, it’s #1 of 10. This data comes directly from: https://alex-companies.com/data/2026-10-31-memphis-million-share-place-mkt. The real story? Wealth is not spreading across the metro — it’s being hoarded in a few high-income enclaves. What does this mean for the future of inclusive development in Memphis? How will this affect public services, school funding, and long-term affordability? Let’s discuss.
