Southeast of the city lies Collierville, a large suburb in Shelby County with a population of more than 50,000 residents. The town’s quaint Main Street is dotted with shops, small businesses and locally owned restaurants that surround the gazebo and manicured greenspaces at historic Town Square Park.

Small-town charm blends with upscale amenities and suburban conveniences in Collierville, a short 30-minute drive from Downtown Memphis and 20 minutes from Memphis International Airport. The community boasts award-winning schools, ample shopping and a variety of parks and greenspaces.

Robbins-Halle Nature Preserve, a nearly 100-acre greenspace, features shaded walking trails and an observation deck that overlooks Wolf River wetlands. A future trail will connect the Wolf River Wildlife Corridor and the Collierville Greenbelt system.

The Shops at Carriage Crossing offers suburban staples including Barnes & Noble, Bed, Bath & Beyond and Carrabba’s Italian Grill.

And the town plans a number of annual events, including the celebrated Christmas in Collierville, a series of seasonal happenings centered around a holiday parade, Christmas tree lighting and festive display of illuminated decorations at the town square.
