Jackson, TN Apartments for Rent

Jackson, Tennessee, in Madison County, combines historical charm with contemporary living for those seeking apartments for rent. The city earned its "Hub City" nickname from its historic role as a railroad junction connecting Memphis, Nashville, and other Southern cities. Downtown Jackson features the Carl Perkins Civic Center and an active Arts District. With one-bedroom apartments averaging $1,118, the city offers more affordable housing options than Tennessee's larger cities while providing essential amenities and job opportunities.

Jackson's neighborhoods range from historic downtown areas to newer developments throughout the city. Apartment residents have access to several educational institutions, including Union University, Lane College, and the University of Memphis at Lambuth. The West Tennessee Healthcare Sportsplex and city parks provide recreational opportunities, while the Ned R. McWherter West Tennessee Cultural Arts Center and Casey Jones Home & Railroad Museum offer cultural experiences. Located along Interstate 40, Jackson provides easy access to Memphis and Nashville, combining small-town atmosphere with metropolitan convenience.

Why Jackson?

  • A fantastic old-fashioned Southern downtown filled with shops, restaurants, and events.
  • Jackson State Community College, established in 1965, has the largest enrollment of all Jackson colleges.
