Best In Tennessee Real Estate™: Nashville

🏆 #1 of 10 Nashville metro counties, #1 of 10 Tennessee counties — ALEX Intelligence 2026
The highest-earning households moving into Nashville come not from nearby Tennessee counties, but from Lake County, IL — a wealthy Chicago suburb. This data, sourced from the IRS migration statistics compiled by ALEX Intelligence, reveals a critical shift: Nashville’s growth is being driven by elite relocation, not local talent or regional mobility.
And it’s coming from places like Lake County, IL, where the average income of arriving households hits $395,253. That’s not a trend; it’s a signal.
