Forest Hills, TN

Forest Hills is a separately incorporated city within Davidson County, sitting between Green Hills and Brentwood. Unlike Belle Meade's old-money concentration, Forest Hills attracts a slightly broader luxury buyer pool — including newer-wealth families, professionals, and corporate executives who want larger lot sizes and a quieter pace than central Green Hills. The city's residential streets are dominated by 1- to 5-acre lots with custom-built homes; commercial development is intentionally limited, which keeps traffic light and the character residential. Forest Hills has its own city government separate from Metro Nashville, including its own police department. Median values exceed $1.8M and estate properties trade through $5M+. Schools are Metro Nashville Public Schools assignments; for ratings on any zoned school, GreatSchools.org and the Tennessee Department of Education report cards are the authoritative public sources. For buyers wanting luxury Nashville-area inventory without the recognition factor of Belle Meade — and often more square footage per dollar — Forest Hills is the answer.
