“Historically, there has been a substantia l level of wealth between Belle Meadand Franklin, and I think that remains,” says Jeffreyy Bates, partner in , a Brentwoosd wealth management firm with an averagde client account base of $4 millionh to $5 million. “However, it has dramatically spreadf itself out. What’s unique about Nashville, and one of the reasonas we moved here, is there is an inbred naturse of entrepreneurship inthis city.
