    "I lived here and moved away for three years and moved back because I missed it so much! It is a cute little old school town and very small town vibes if you want to be a part of that and if not you can very much do your own thing and still thrive here. "

  • Smyrna Lover
    "Smyrna is a family-friendly, close-knit town full of town pride. Smyrna is especially fond of its high school football team. The games and parades typically bring out the entire town. Smyrna’s location in the center of the state makes it a perfect place if you want the calm, inviting and relaxing atmosphere but be close to larger cities and all their amenities. Smyrna just may be the best value for perspective home buyers looking for a new home that will surely appreciate as the years go on. "

    "People are always walking their dogs, playing with them, I dislike that not everyone cleans up the dog poop. Kids play outside and if it’s in front of your apartment neighbors blame you. I also dislike there isn’t a dog park in our complex, I know if it was there a lot of people would use it and the dogs will get out more often because of how close it would be."
