Green Hills is one of Nashville’s most recognizable areas. Green Hills is a larger community comprised of several neighborhoods around Hillsboro Rd. For some of Nashville’s residents Green Hills can represent anything within the bounds of I-440, Franklin Rd, Radnor Lake and Hillsboro Rd. However you choose to define its boundaries, Green Hills remains one of the most desirable places to live in South Nashville.
Green Hills is home to Lipscomb University, the Bluebird Cafe, the Green Hills Mall, Copper Kettle and other necesities that can’t be found in some of the other neighborhoods on the up and up – Trader Joes, Whole Foods, Kroger, Regal Cinema.

Green Hills is located around a number of private schools that are close by – Harpeth Hall, Franklin Road Academy, Lipscomb Academy, St. Paul Christian Academy and Father Ryan to name a few.
