Job Opportunities
Employment opportunities abound. The unemployment rate is an incredibly low 3.3% (the national average is 6.1%). Williamson County is bouncing back from the pandemic in impressive style. The job growth rate is currently 2.4% but expected to explode over the next ten years with a phenomenal 54.4% job growth! (National average is 33.5% anticipated growth.) Industries are varied – no, you don’t have to be a musician to make a living here! Health care, education, and tech are other popular and rising industries. Amazon and Oracle are expected to bring a combined influx of more than 13,000 jobs.
Economics
What’s the pay versus housing market, taxes, etc. like? Good, if you ask us! Tennessee is one of the few states without a state income tax. Yes, the housing market is booming here. That means houses go quickly and are a bit more expensive than they used to be. But housing is still about 13% lower than the national average. And the average square footage for a home in Williamson County is more than 3,000 square feet. So you get plenty of house for your money. If you’re moving from a higher income and cost of living area like New York or Los Angeles, you’ll have sticker shock in a good way! You won’t believe the size and quality of the home you’ll find in and around Franklin, TN.
