Just a couple of miles south of downtown Nashville, the vibrant 12 South community encompasses 10 blocks that run from Linden Avenue to Sevier Park. Over 200 years ago Granny White made her way from North Carolina and settled along the old buffalo path, now known as Granny White Pike, to sell her ginger cakes from a roadside stand, and later, opened an inn for travelers. Today, the same spirit of hospitality and entrepreneurship exists in 12 South and Nashvillians and tourists alike enjoy the highly-walkable community.

Residing on either side of Interstate-24, Antioch is bordered by Percy Priest Lake to the east, Nolensville Road to the west, and Franklin-Limestone Road and Burkitt Road to the north and south respectively. Founded in the early 1800s, the town began as a rural farm community, but thanks to suburbanization in the late 1900s grew to one of Nashville's most populated zip codes. Its convenience makes it ideal for commuting and its affordability has made it so appealing that its growth outpaced all of Nashville from 2010 to 2015. Businesses are constantly investing in Antioch, further ensuring its status as one of Nashville's hottest neighborhoods.
