City - Memphis

Memphis sits on a high bluff above the Mississippi River, carrying the weight of American musical history alongside a present-day economy that moves at a serious pace. FedEx, AutoZone, and International Paper all call the city home, giving the metro area a broad commercial foundation that extends well beyond tourism. The University of Memphis and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital add major educational and medical anchors that draw people from across the country. Known as the birthplace of rock and roll and the cradle of the blues, Memphis shaped the soundtrack of a nation — Sun Studio, Graceland, and the Stax Museum of American Soul Music stand as living proof.

Neighborhoods here each carry their own personality. Midtown offers tree-lined streets and proximity to Overton Park, while Downtown and South Main attract those who want converted warehouse lofts close to the riverfront and the National Civil Rights Museum.
