Every figure here is read live from the same table rendered below.

87% of Tennessee's 482 tracked cities are small towns under 10,000 people -- none crosses the 1-million-resident mark.

How we calculate this mix & the national home-value percentile below

Every tracked city in Tennessee is bucketed by population: small town under 10,000; mid-size 10,000–99,999; large 100,000–999,999; megacity 1,000,000+. The national home-value comparison below plots Tennessee's average tracked-city home value against all 52 US states/territories, ranked the same way as the per-city percentiles: the state's percentile is the share of states with a lower average home value. See the methodology page for the full source-to-figure lineage.
