I'm thinking of moving with my wife and 5-year old daughter to the Nashville area. I've heard that Frankilin is a great place to live and raise a family. My one concern is that being Hispanic and looking middle-eastern could possibly lead to dirty looks from some in the area. For what it's worth, my wife and daughter look of northern european descent. Can someone give me some advice on whether my concerns are legitimate or not? Thanks.

You might be surprised by the mix of ethic groups in Nashville, and even in Franklin. Though the majority is caucasian, there is a mix of hispanic, asian and african american descent as well.

Regardless of where you go, you will find a sector of racism and lack of tolerence for other ethnicities...but I think you will find the majority of Nashvillians to be among the friendliest around.

Thank you bnewman for your reply. It gave me some good information. My wife and I have attempted to thoroughly research Nashville and in particular Franklin. We've liked everything we've read about it. Thanks again for your reply.
