It has been said that Memphis is mentioned in more songs than any other city in the world. If that is not true, it should be, because Memphis has a lot to sing about. A big city with a small town feel, Memphis has one of the lowest costs of living of any U.S. city with a population of more than 500,000. It has been recognized nationally for its beauty and cleanliness and provides recreational and cultural activities for the visitor and resident alike.
