Area Highlights
A quick view of what defines Arrington.
What to Expect Living in Arrington
Arrington is rural land with a small crossroads village. The county’s plan for that village covers just 37 parcels and about 325 acres, and the plan says it “is not intended to bring about new development.” It sets what new development has to look like if and when it comes, and a future Arrington Village zoning district is being drafted.
Government and police. There is no city government. Williamson County handles planning and zoning, and the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office handles law enforcement in the unincorporated county.
Fire. Arrington Volunteer Fire Station 19 is at 4792 Murfreesboro Road. The county splits rural fire service among fourteen stations, and its Fire Districts Map shows which one covers a given address.
Water and sewer. This is the big one. The county’s plan says the village is served by the Milcrofton Utility District for water, that municipal sewer is not available, and that septic systems are limited on many properties by the soils. Outside the village core, check the water provider and septic suitability address by address. I do that on every property before an offer goes in.
Trash. There is no county convenience center in Arrington. The nearest on the county’s list include College Grove, 6520 Arno-College Grove Road, and Trinity, 3004 Wilson Pike, and they are free for Williamson County residents.
Property tax. With no city, most Arrington addresses pay Williamson County tax only. Some parcels may also fall in a special school district, which the Trustee’s records show by parcel.
Library. The closest branch is the College Grove Branch Library at 8607 Horton Highway.
Nearby. Measured from the crossroads with no traffic, College Grove is about 8 road miles, Nolensville about 10, Franklin about 10 and Brentwood about 18. Each has its own guide.
Arrington, TN Homes for Sale: Land, Septic and the Village Plan
Most of the 37014 area is rural land outside the small village core, and what you can build on a piece of it comes down to soils, septic and the county’s rules. The village itself is planned to stay small.
Arrington, TN neighborhoods and new construction homes
If you are thinking about building on land here, the septic evaluation comes first, then the county’s zoning. If you are comparing Arrington with a golf or club community, note that The Grove is in College Grove, at 6200 Wildings Boulevard, not in Arrington. The College Grove guide covers it.
