Typical Nashville Commute Times By Neighborhood [heat map]

With three major interstates and nearly a dozen 5-lane spokes, getting around Nashville can be a bit confusing. Because we are are laid out in a loop, rather than a grid, predicting commute times can be a challenge. “As the crow flies” and “as the car drives” are not at all the same thing. The good people at Trulia published a few heat maps that can help enlighten your vision of the typical Nashville commute (to downtown).
