Neighborhood

Situated across the Tennessee River from the University of Tennessee campus, South Knoxville sits in a prime location that gives easy access to Knoxville proper to the north, Blount County to the south, and the Great Smokey Mountains and the Sevierville region to the west. The area, known for its low overall housing prices and average rents, makes a great place for students living on a budget.

The area’s close proximity to the University of Tennessee campus means students can easily drive or bike to their classes throughout the day. Non-students are within a short commute to Knoxville via the James White Parkway or Chapman Highway. Nestled along the south bank of the Tennessee River, Chapman Highway runs along the neighborhood’s western edge. Bordered by Island Home Park to the northeast, Vestal to the west and Old Sevier to the north, the neighborhood sits about three miles to the south of Downtown Knoxville.
