Pretty neighborhoods don’t just happen! They take attention. And grooming. And gardening — especially our entrances. And it takes many other things, including effective government liaison, “watch dog” services in both covenant and criminal venues, and meaningful communications with the whole community. But mostly it takes neighbors willing to support a volunteer effort to uphold all these and the many other activities, which go into a workable neighborhood association.

This beautiful neighborhood is one of the most conveniently located in the whole of Memphis. We’re minutes from the largest and best shopping center in the city, minutes from Interstate 40, a half hour from the airport or downtown. Big time collegiate and professional sports are a feature of the city, along with a world-class zoo, opera, and a symphony orchestra second to none — all just minutes away. Chimneyrock Elementary is one of the highest rated schools in the state, and equally good middle and high schools are nearby. Top rated Colonial Country Club is inside the development, and many other great golf courses surround Countrywood. It is truly a great place to live!
