CUMBERLAND COUNTY

Cumberland County was ranked in 2007 by bizjournals.com to be 4th of the 100 best communities to retire to. This ranking comes as no surprise to the locals with our accommodating climate, very low property taxes, 11 golf courses, several resort communities & our proximity to 75% of the country’s population. We are a strong, involved community that offers wonderful rural living with easy travel to Nashville, Knoxville & Chattanooga. Our area is experiencing steady growth, but we've been able to maintain the small town charm that welcomes natives & newcomers alike. In 2005, the population was 51,346.
