Rental Homes in Mount Juliet, TN

Named for a castle in Kilkenny, Ireland, Mt. Juliet is home to Country-Rock stars Lucinda Williams and Charlie Daniels. This independent incorporated city is connected to Nashville via the I-40 expressway, and by the Music City Star light-rail service. Mt. Juliet is currently undergoing a tremendous phase of economic growth, and jobs are plentiful here. The city also has two public parks, one of which is named for Charlie Daniels himself. Two separate lakes and the existence of one of Tennessee's largest little league organizations means residents are never at a loss for things to do. Mt. Juliet is located just 14 miles east of downtown Nashville.

The cost of housing in Mount Juliet has increased with each successive wave of growth. A decade ago, the average rental cost of a home was only $800/mo. Today, however, that number is rapidly approaching $2,000/mo. That means it is important to lease property here sooner than later. The market itself is widely varied, despite Mount Juliet's small town atmosphere. Not only can one find spacious modern estates here, but there are plenty of traditional single-family units available as well. A few homes reach the $1 million price tag, but most rent at between $1,400/mo and $3,000/mo. The cost of housing is expected to rise dramatically over the next decade, which means that buying a home in Mount Juliet can be a wise investment.

Mount Juliet is one of the fastest growing cities in Tennessee. This "city between the lakes" has seen its population double over the past eight years alone. But make no mistake. With a median income of nearly $70,000 per family, Mount Juliet is one of the area's most prosperous cities. There are plenty of good schools here, and the city's high school just moved into a state-of-the-art facility in August of 2008. Many residents, however, opt to send their children to the Mount Julian Christian Academy, a top-notch K-12 private school run by the city's First Baptist Church.
