Maury County

Housing / market

Maury County sits on Nashville’s south / I-65 corridor — Columbia county seat, Maury portion of Spring Hill, Mount Pleasant / rural south / Duck River. CRITICAL: Spring Hill straddles Maury + Williamson (ZIP 37174 can be either) — never treat citywide Spring Hill portal medians as Maury-only. Cross-link Williamson · Spring Hill (Maury) · Spring Hill (Williamson) · Columbia.

Owner-occupied rate 70.9%; ACS median owner-occupied value $355,700; median gross rent $1,300 (ACS 2020–2024) — not MLS sale medians. Housing units Jul 1, 2025 49,725; building permits 2025: 1,408; land area 613.14 sq mi; households 42,306; persons/HH 2.52; median HH income $76,130; bachelor’s+ 28.0%; poverty 8.7%; mean commute 29.0 min. https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/maurycountytennessee/PST045225

Stock mix (qualitative): 2010s–2020s SFH/TH along Spring Hill (Maury) / north Columbia + older Columbia Public Square / Duck River stock + Mount Pleasant / rural south acreage. Condo vs acreage share: GAP.

PRIMARY — Greater Nashville REALTORS® quarterly home sales (data from RealTracs Solutions; association public board — not live Realtracs Analytics→Market Trends). Maury is on the 9-county board. https://www.greaternashvillerealtors.org/market-data-quarterly · research `mid-tn-market-stats/gnar-public/` (fetched 2026-09-11).

Q2 2026 (Apr–Jun) — Maury County:

• Residential median sold $440,850 · 539 closings
• Condo median sold $315,000 · 69 closings
• Total closings 608

Q1 2026 (Jan–Mar) — Maury County:

• Residential median sold $430,000 · 385 closings
• Condo median sold $306,495 · 42 closings
• Total closings 427

GNAR public quarterly = county SFH/condo closings + prices only. Multi-family / land / new-vs-resale typed ranges: GAP. Do not invent Realtracs Analytics bands.

Portal county spine — Mid-TN market-stats (SECONDARY aggregators — not blended with GNAR):

• Median sold (Realtor): $420,450 (+1.68% YoY) — listing median $489,628 (+6.43% YoY) — active 1,712 — DOM list 53 — Aug 2026 — https://www.realtor.com/local/market/tennessee/maury-county
• Redfin Maury County dated 2026 page metrics: GAP — https://www.redfin.com/county/2604/TN/Maury-County/housing-market
• ZHVI mid-tier Jul 31, 2026 $406,435 (+1.1%) — different construct from median sold
• USA Today / Realtor May 2026: overall median $417,400; SFH $429,995; Condo/TH $334,995 — SECONDARY, not GNAR — https://data.usatoday.com/real-estate-market-report/sales/maury-county/county-47119/

CONFLICT: Realtor Aug sold $420,450 / DOM list 53 vs GNAR Q2 Res $440,850 / Condo $315,000 vs USA Today May overall $417,400 — sold levels diverge; DOM definitions differ; portals sit below GNAR Q2 Res and above GNAR Condo (expected when portals blend types). ACS $355,700 ≠ portal or GNAR sale medians. Never blend GNAR + Realtor + USA Today into one “the” median. Redfin county dated pull = GAP.

What homes cost (typed bands):

• Single-family (Residential): $440,850 (Q2 2026); $430,000 (Q1 2026) — FACT PRIMARY GNAR quarterly
• Condo / townhome: $315,000 (Q2); $306,495 (Q1) — FACT PRIMARY same board
• Multi-family: GAP — not on GNAR public quarterly; typed Realtracs Analytics = GAP
• Land / acreage: GAP
• New vs resale (MLS split): GAP — builder “from $” = marketing floors only (see Builders), not sold bands

City context (not county median) — do not collapse city ↔ county; label Spring Hill carefully:

• Columbia (Realtor Aug 2026): sold $403,404; list $454,993; active 1,115; DOM 56 · Redfin ~$370K (3-mo thru Jun) — CONFLICT — Columbia
• Spring Hill citywide (Realtor Aug 2026): sold $492,000; list $549,950; active 428; DOM 45 · Redfin ~$532K (3-mo thru Jul) — CONFLICT — includes Maury + Williamson sides — do not treat as Maury-only — Spring Hill (Maury) · Spring Hill (Williamson) · Williamson

Who’s moving in

County (Census QuickFacts / PEP V2025 + TNSDC / MIGRATION-TRENDS, as-of 2026-09-11): Population estimate Jul 1, 2025 118,131 — +17.0% vs 2020 estimates base 100,957 (Census 2020 100,974; 2010 80,956). 2024→2025: +3,675 (+3.2%) — TN numeric rank #5; #2 by percent statewide (after Trousdale). https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/maurycountytennessee/PST045225

Migration components (PEP / TNSDC via MIGRATION-TRENDS):

• Domestic migration 2025: +3,043
• International: +143
• Net migration: +3,186
• ACS 2016–2020 net migration flow +1,851 (FRED NETMIGNACS047119)

ACS 2020–2024 / QuickFacts: same house 1 year ago 89.5%; foreign-born 3.9%; under 18 22.0%; mean commute 29.0 min.

U-Haul national top-25 cities: Columbia / Spring Hill not listed 2025 (FACT absence).

Do not write invented “young family influx” fluff — under-18 share is 22.0% only. Metro U-Haul / chamber headlines are not Maury-only. Timed I-65 / Saturn Parkway / US-31 peak ETA table: GAP (ACS mean ≠ peak drive time). Do not soft-wash Davidson’s negative domestic onto this page, and do not copy Williamson Spring Hill amenities as Maury-only.

Schools

Single public system: Maury County Public Schools (MCPS) = countywide PK–12 (mauryk12.org) · ~13,098 students / ~24 schools (GS / New Residents’ Guide “more than 12,000” framing — confirm live About). Williamson County Schools serve the Williamson side of Spring Hill only — never assign by ZIP 37174. Never list WCS Summit High as a Maury district school. Cross-ref Williamson / Spring Hill when buyer is west of the county line.

Zone tools: MCPS high school directory · District home. Live street-level zone locator URL: GAP this pass — verify address with district; never ZIP-only. Builder marketing sometimes auto-suggests Williamson schools for any 37174 — ignore; verify parcel + MCPS vs WCS.

GreatSchools public HS (PRIMARY, as-of 2026-09-11 — ratings change):

• Battle Creek High School — 130 Battle Creek Way, Spring Hill, TN 37174 — MCPS (not WCS) — 6/10 · enroll 402 — https://www.greatschools.org/tennessee/spring-hill/7119-Battle-Creek-High-School/

Dual Spring Hill HS market: Battle Creek (MCPS, GS 6/10) vs Williamson-side WCS campuses — primary buyer question; warn ZIP trap.

Full ES/MS live GS table: GAP. Sample Battle Creek / Spring Hill / Columbia ES/MS: address FACT via district; live GS often GAP — confirm mauryk12.org; not WCS.

Private (named; no invented tuition): Columbia Academy — Columbia — 1101 West 7th Street (PK–12; historic Arsenal / CMA campus) · Columbia Academy — Spring Hill — 756 Beechcroft Road (preschool–6) · Zion Christian Academy — school site 2323 Zion Road (NCES also lists 6901 Old Zion Rd — CONFLICT street).

Industries / employers

Industries (mauryisready.com/industry): automotive manufacturing (Saturn legacy → GM Spring Hill Manufacturing); advanced manufacturing / suppliers; healthcare (Maury Regional Health); HQ / R&D (Farm Bureau Insurance of Tennessee, Columbia); education (MCPS + Columbia State Community College). Many residents commute along I-65 / Saturn Parkway / US-31 (ACS mean 29.0 min).

Named large employers (as-of 2026-09-11):

• GM Spring Hill Manufacturing — Spring Hill / Maury industrial base (Saturn Parkway / I-65) — FACT presence · headcount CONFLICT (ALIGN Maury ~3,700 framing vs NewsChannel5 “more than 5,000 in Spring Hill area”) — do not invent a single number
• Maury Regional Medical Center — 1224 Trotwood Avenue, Columbia — ~255 beds; ED “over 2,000” staff · https://www.mauryregional.com/
• Farm Bureau Insurance of Tennessee — HQ Columbia (ED) — street pin GAP

ED also names Fuel Total Systems; Ultium Cells ($2.3B framing — confirm open status before “open” claims); Landmark Ceramics; Parker Hannifin filtration R&D; Groove Life; Worldwide Stages; SmileDirectClub (Columbia); Armada Nutrition (Spring Hill). Supplier street pins: GAP.

Spring Hill label: GM plant is Maury employment base; residential Spring Hill is split Maury/Williamson — a worker may pay Williamson taxes / attend WCS while working Maury-side. Never collapse city = one county.

Named retail / food nodes (locator / Maps; as-of 2026-09-11):

• Walmart Supercenter Columbia — 2200 Brookmeade Drive, Columbia, TN 38401

Costco in-county: GAP — nearest often Franklin (Williamson) — do not invent Maury Costco. Sam’s Club in-county: GAP. Starbucks countywide exact count: GAP.

Builders & new construction

Named Maury County selling communities only (builder primary pages, as-of 2026-09-11). Marketing floors ≠ MLS sold bands. Do not invent subdivisions. Confirm Maury vs Williamson parcel on Spring Hill communities; Harvest Point builder page lists Maury County Schools — treat as Maury-side pathway unless parcel proves otherwise. Do not pin Williamson-side Spring Hill builders as Maury-only.
