How To Qualify
Knoxville sits where the Tennessee River meets the edge of the Appalachian Mountains. This city was the very first capital of Tennessee, a piece of history that echoes through its architecture and civic pride. Daily life moves at a pace that's energetic without being overwhelming.
Downtown's Market Square draws crowds for concerts, seasonal festivals, and some of the best people-watching in the state, while the Old City has grown into a go-to destination for dining and nightlife. Neighborhoods like Sequoyah Hills offer tree-lined streets along the river, and West Knoxville's Turkey Creek area keeps things convenient with shopping and entertainment close. The orange-and-white spirit of the University of Tennessee is impossible to miss, and on game days, the Vol Navy takes to Neyland Stadium along the Tennessee River in one of college football's most iconic traditions.
Renters will find a solid range of housing options spread across the city.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
