Counts cover the Orange Mound boundary shown above. The Less/More marker places Orange Mound against the per-square-mile rate of every Memphis area we manage, so the raw count is read in context rather than on its own. Refreshed continuously from public records. Reported incidents are not total crime and do not measure how safe an area is or anything about the people who live there. We show the same public figures for every area and rate none. This is factual public data, not legal, investment, or fair-housing advice.

03

A bit of Orange Mound history

Founded in 1890, Orange Mound was the first US neighborhood built by and for African Americans. The name comes from the orange-colored Osage orange hedges that originally bordered the streets. It produced more college graduates per capita than any other Black neighborhood in the country during the early 20th century.

For owners, Orange Mound is a rental-demand market. Our typical-rent figure here is built on 129 live comps, so the number is grounded rather than guessed. We price each property to its own block and screen for residents who will stay.
