Davidson County is known for Dollar General HQ. We publish town guides here for Goodlettsville, Madison, Belle Meade, Forest Hills and Oak Hill. On what is being built, our own dated write-up here follows The RiverGate Redevelopment in Goodlettsville (last updated 2026-07-01).

What towns are in Davidson County, TN?

Goodlettsville, Madison, Belle Meade, Forest Hills and Oak Hill are in Davidson County, Tennessee. Davidson County is one of the Middle Tennessee counties around Nashville, and we publish a town guide for each of those 5 towns.

Goodlettsville sits on a county line — Goodlettsville is also in Sumner County — so it appears on both county pages and its listings are counted on each.

Town names and county assignments come from our own published town guides, linked above.

How far is Davidson County from downtown Nashville?

From the towns we publish in Davidson County: Goodlettsville runs 20-30 minutes to downtown Nashville, Madison runs 15-20 minutes to downtown Nashville, Belle Meade runs 10-15 minutes to downtown Nashville, Forest Hills runs 15-20 minutes to downtown Nashville and Oak Hill runs 15-25 minutes to downtown Nashville.

Those are the drive times on each town's own guide, and they describe a car trip to downtown, not to Nashville International Airport or to any one employer. Where a guide gives an off-peak figure, the off-peak label travels with it.

Is there new construction in Davidson County?

New construction was 17% of the homes listed for sale in Davidson County, as of 2026-09-06 (n=4,699).

Community-by-community detail — who is building, what stage each community is at and what to verify before you write an offer — is on the new-construction pages linked below.

What is the property tax rate in Davidson County, TN?

The 2025 certified county rate for Davidson County is $2.782 per $100 of assessed value — the certified table's "Metro Nashville — General Services District (GSD)" row. Tennessee assesses residential property at 25% of appraised value, so the county portion of a bill is appraised value × 0.25 × 2.782 ÷ 100. That rate is a rate, not a percentage of a sale price.

Metro's GSD rate — the rate outside the Urban Services District. Old Hickory is part of Metro Nashville and is billed the GSD or USD rate; it is not a separate municipality and has no row of its own.

A home inside a city limit is also billed that city's own rate on top of the county rate, and the certified table carries 4 municipal rows for Davidson County. Which one applies depends on the address, not on the county. We publish the certified rates and do not rank them.

Towns we publish in Davidson County also sit in Sumner County. For the reader comparing two counties, the 2025 certified county rate is Sumner County $1.421 per $100 of assessed value. Printed side by side, not ranked.

Where do I look up school zoning and crime data for Davidson County?

For school zoning and crime statistics we point at the official records and do not characterize them: the Tennessee State Report Card, the NCES public-school search, the district's own zone lookup, and the FBI Crime Data Explorer.

Some people want to research this themselves before they narrow a search. The official sources are linked on our schools and crime data page, in the same list for every town and county we publish.

We do not publish a year-over-year price change on this page. The change figure in our data is derived from closed sale prices, and sale-price figures are held back from public pages until RealTracs confirms in writing that we may display them and our broker signs off. The two on-market change figures — asking price and active listing count — are held back for a different reason: the on-market cohort for the comparison window is incomplete, so a change computed from it would be measured against a partial set. Everything above is a level, measured on the date it names.
