Residential Life

Arlington offers a diverse range of homes, particularly emphasizing luxury living. This Memphis suburb has something to suit every taste, from sprawling estates to custom-built houses. The neighborhoods are as unique as the homes, each offering charm and character.

The sense of community you’ll feel after moving to Arlington truly makes residential life in this town so unique. The atmosphere of friendliness & warmth is apparent in the way that neighbors know & greet one another & the way neighborhood children play together. 

In terms of services, Arlington excels. The city is just a short drive from Memphis proper, giving its residents access to city life without living in the hustle and bustle of more concentrated neighborhoods but that is certainly not to say that residents will find Arlington lacking amenities & attractions! 

 

Amenities and Attractions

Despite its rural, country feel, there’s no shortage of amenities in this cozy town. Arlington’s wealth of attractions cater to a variety of interests, so whether you’re a foodie or an outdoor enthusiast, there’s truly something for everyone here. 

  • Outdoor Recreation: If you love nature and the great outdoors, this city has plenty. It has many parks and green spaces, including the popular Arlington Sports Complex and the serene Forrest Street Park. Additionally, many Arlington homes occupy sprawling lots that integrate & embrace the natural settings that surround them.

  • Shopping & Dining: If you’re looking to grab a quick bite or try a new restaurant, the Historic Depot Square offers a range of local boutiques and eateries, including popular favorites Vinegar Jim’s and Brendaley. Plus, the Farmer’s Market is a fan-favorite, where residents can stock up on fresh produce from local farmers.

  • Community Events: For family-friendly fun, you can join in on one of the several community-wide events hosted by the city. Your family is sure to love the annual Fall Festival and the Music on the Square concert series, which provide excellent opportunities for residents to come together and celebrate their community.

Whatever you and your family enjoy, your new Arlington home can certainly provide.

Education

Every parent’s #1 priority is finding a good school for their child. Thankfully, Arlington has you covered in this department. With a dedication to STEM and a thriving performing arts focus, the Arlington Community School District provides the essentials for the whole child, both inside and outside of the classroom. 

Serving nearly 5,000 students in the area, the Arlington Community School District is consistently ranked as one of the top local school districts. The close-knit school system ensures its students get access to all of the tools and resources they need to succeed and backs this mission up with the following:

  • The 1:1 iPad initiative, which provides all K-12 students with an iPad to supplement their education

  • STEM-centered learning beginning in kindergarten

  • Support for the arts, including the high school’s state-of-the-art Fine Arts facility set to open in Spring 2024
