In order to keep population density down, Brentwood has recently enacted a 1-acre lot minimum on new construction going forward.

Over 60 residential subdivisions are included within the city of Brentwood. Because of its central location in the area as well as the rapid growth in property values it has become one of the most coveted locations for executives and other professionals relocating to Middle Tennessee.

Part of this vast difference is the average square footage of a Brentwood home in Williamson County is 4,160 while in Davidson County the average home is 2,800 square feet, but property in Williamson County generally commands a higher price tag.
