Kingsport Spirit

This special edition of Kingsport Spirit is offered as a gift to the public and municipal officials gathering in Kingsport for the 86th Annual Meeting of the Tennessee Municipal League later this week. It takes a robust dive into Tennessee’s single-family housing market across 120 communities—from Memphis to Mountain City—using per-capita comparisons to help level the playing field. How does your community stack up, and where does the host city fit into Tennessee’s housing story?

The report examines prices during the past 12 months, three-year appreciation, sales activity, affordability, market balance, development-district trends, and the differences between central cities and surrounding communities. The appendices provide Top 35 rankings across the major measures, development-district assignments, profiles of all 120 markets, and the definitions used throughout the analysis.

Welcome to Kingsport! We’re glad you’re here!
