Love sports, but not too keen on playing them? Horn Lake is where Garry Parish, famous sports columnist, calls home so you'll be in good company.
Just south of the Tennessee border near Memphis is Horn Lake, a small but populated suburban town offering more quiet living than in the big city. Horn Lakes motto is "The Doorway to Mississippi" thats because its literally the first place that people from Memphis and even Missouri and Arkansas enter when theyre coming into the state.
Moving to Horn Lake
You want to move to Horn Lake? Gather up your moving documents, because if you find a place you want to live you better be sure you put an application in right away. Not sure what to bring? Check with a real estate broker, if youre working with one, but you can be safe with a copy of your ID, a bank statement, tax returns, proof of employment, references from former landlords. If youre hoping to find a rental in Horn Lake, youll probably need to pay at least two months rent upfront and maybe also a brokers fee.
Theres a good mix of rental homes and owned homes in the city about 30 percent rented. But theres also a 7 percent vacancy rate, so theres a chance youll find something you like right off the bat. Horn Lake is too small to have neighborhoods, but rest assured that the whole place feels quiet and countryish.
Living by the Lake
Most people work and play in Memphis, which is the biggest city nearby. Downtown Memphis is home to world-famous Beale Street, where cars cant drive and music plays all night long. Its also pretty close to the FedEx Forum where the Memphis Grizzlies play and theyre soon to be one of the best NBA teams in the entire league. It also allows you close proximity to the best BBQ in the entire world, if you believe in the Memphis style dry rub BBQ.
If you actually want to spend time in Horn Lake, theres a Chicago style pizza joint and a Memphis-style BBQ joint for food; theres also an outpost of Memphis sushi favorite, Sekisui. If youre planning to do something other than eat, go into Memphis. Get a car, too, 'cause if not youll be marooned.
