Last Update: September 1, 2026
Tennessee is located in the southeast of the United States. The Appalachian Mountains are in the east of the state, while the Mississippi River forms the western border.
Like all other states who were a part of the Civil War in the 19th century, Tennessee has had a dynamic history. It was the last state to leave the Union and join Confederacy. Having been occupied by Union forces shortly thereafter, it was the first state to be admitted again.
Tennessee was mainly an agrarian economy, but this changed in the 20th century when manufacturing and tourism started developing. Tennessee has played a major role in developing rock and roll, blues, country, and rockabilly music, which is obvious when you walk through many Tennessee cities. There are numerous tourist attractions in this state, such as The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, a part of the Appalachian Trail.
The capital and the largest city is Nashville, with a population of over 660,000. The second-largest city is Memphis, whose population is over 650,000, closely following Nashville.
Ranking Criteria
ElitePersonalFinance extracted the latest data from the FBI crime statistics in the United States. We took violent crime as the main criteria. To get our score, we used this formula:
Crime Score = ( Total Number of Violent Crimes / Population ) * 1,000
This way, safer cities got the lowest score, and those more vulnerable to crimes got higher scores.
The cities that did not report crimes to the FBI and those under 5,000 residents were not included in the list.
