Everybody’s Moving Here… Now What?

What happens when your population increases by over 30% in 10 years and the median home price is over $900,000?
It sounds like a success story (and it is), but at the same time the teachers, first responders, and entry-level workers who keep this community running can't afford to live where they work.
In this episode I'm discussing the housing challenges that come with being Tennessee's biggest success story with Bo Patten, the CEO of the Williamson County Association of Realtors.
WCAR’s 2,800 members aren't just selling houses - they're on the front lines of a housing market that's growing faster than anyone expected.
In this episode, Bo shares:
- How realtors went from selling houses to shaping housing policy in Franklin
- Why as many people commute INTO Williamson County as leave it (it's not the bedroom community people think it is)
- How Williamson County plans to address a projected shortage of nearly 10,000 housing units by 2030
The communities that thrive long-term aren't the ones that grow the fastest. They're the ones that plan for it.
