Tennessee’s digital home
About
TennesseeTN
TennesseeTN.com is your home for Tennessee news, culture, cities, and community — from Memphis to Bristol, Nashville to the Smokies. Built by Tennesseans, for Tennesseans.
Built for the Volunteer State
The idea
Tennessee is one of the most distinctive, most talked-about, and most misunderstood states in America. It’s the birthplace of rock and roll and country music, a state that voted on women’s suffrage with a single letter, a place that people are moving to at a rate of hundreds per day — and yet it doesn’t have a single definitive digital home.
TennesseeTN.com is built to be that home. A site that takes Tennessee seriously — its history, its culture, its cities, its business community, and the people who live here or were shaped by it. Whether you were born here, just moved here, or left a long time ago and still think of it as home, this is your site.
The domain
The name is the idea. Tennessee.tn combines the full name of the state with its two-letter abbreviation — the state’s country code top-level domain. It’s the most literal digital expression of Tennessee identity that exists. TennesseeTN.com is the platform. @tennessee.tn is the product — a professional email address that carries that identity in every message you send.
What we believe
Tennessee has produced more American culture per square mile than almost anywhere else on earth. It deserves editorial coverage that matches that weight — honest, well-researched, genuinely useful, and proud without being promotional. That’s what we’re building.
What Guides Us
Every story, guide, and resource on this site exists to serve people who care about Tennessee — residents, transplants, and diaspora alike. We cover the state from the inside, not from a distance.
Moving guides that actually answer your questions. Cost of living data that’s real. Business resources that work. We write for people who need the information, not for search engines.
Tennessee is a great state with real problems. We cover both without cheerleading and without cynicism. The state’s history — including the difficult parts — deserves honest telling.
East, Middle, and West Tennessee are three distinct places. We don’t treat Nashville as the whole state. Memphis, Knoxville, Chattanooga, the Smoky Mountains, and the small towns between them all matter here.
TennesseeTN.com is independently operated. We are not affiliated with the state government, any political party, or any corporation. Our editorial decisions are our own.

Independent & Tennessee-Rooted
Our background
TennesseeTN.com is independently owned and operated. We hold the tennessee.tn domain through authorized .tn registrar access, which gives us the unique ability to issue @tennessee.tn email addresses — a product that exists nowhere else.
Our editorial team is made up of writers and researchers with direct connections to Tennessee — people who have lived in Nashville, Memphis, Knoxville, and the smaller cities and towns in between. We cover the state because we know it, not because an algorithm told us it was a good market.
What we are not
We are not affiliated with the State of Tennessee, any Tennessee government agency, any political party, or any corporation operating in the state. We are an independent media and services company. Our coverage reflects our editorial judgment, not the interests of any advertiser or sponsor.
We are also not a news wire or a content farm. Every guide, article, and resource on TennesseeTN.com is written by a person who has done the research and cares about getting it right.
Corrections policy
We make mistakes. When we do, we correct them promptly and transparently. If you find an error in our coverage, please contact us and we will address it.
How We Operate
Advertising and sponsorship arrangements do not influence our editorial coverage. Sponsored content is clearly labeled as such and is always separate from our editorial articles.
Businesses are not able to pay for favorable editorial coverage. Directory listings are a separate commercial product and are clearly distinguished from editorial content.
Our factual claims are sourced from official government data, peer-reviewed research, established news organizations, or primary sources. We link to our sources.
We collect only the data necessary to operate our services. We do not sell personal data to third parties. See our full Privacy Policy for details.
Errors are corrected promptly. Significant corrections are noted on the article. We do not silently delete or alter content to hide mistakes.
We cover all three regions of Tennessee — East, Middle, and West — and all communities within them. Nashville does not dominate our coverage at the expense of the rest of the state.
