What is happening on the ground in Soulsville

Live signals from the county and the city: how much building is underway, how many structures are flagged as derelict or substandard, and reported crime over the past year. Each is shown against the typical Memphis area we cover, measured per square mile so a big suburb and a small neighborhood compare fairly.

Counts cover the Soulsville boundary shown above. The Less/More marker places Soulsville 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.

A bit of Soulsville history

Named "Soulsville U.S.A." by Stax Records; Stax Studio operated at 926 E McLemore from 1960 until the label's 1975 collapse, launching Otis Redding, Isaac Hayes, Booker T. & the MGs, the Staple Singers, Sam & Dave. Soulsville Foundation revived the name in 1998; Stax Museum opened May 2003; Soulsville Charter School opened 2005.

For owners, Soulsville is a rental-demand market. Our typical-rent figure here is built on 34 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.
