About
The sprawl from Clarksville, Fort Campbell, and even Nashville is starting to reach the Sango and Adams areas of Clarksville. Family friendly, spacious communities and desirable schools are tradeoffs for the longer commute to Fort Campbell, but worth it for many military families.
Southwest of I-24, off Exit 11, is Sango. The name “Sango” came from the colloquial slang for ginseng, a medicinal plant found in the forests. Ginseng was referred to as “sang” by locals and eventually an “O” was added to form Sango. Today, the Sango area schools are a huge draw for families and the home development is booming.
Adams is northeast of I-24, also off Exit 11 and has a similar population and style.
Neighbors
The homes are sprawling, relatively expensive, and home to some of Clarksville’s affluent. Though very popular among military families, it’s a long commute to base, at closer to 45 minutes. Farmers, local families, and even Nashville commuters are drawn to the quiet of outer Clarksville.
Neighborhood Feel
The homes here are pricey and upscale. There are older neighborhoods with large homes and established landscaping, as well as farmland turned master planned communities with “McMansions.”
