Murfreesboro A student-athlete’s life involves more than academics and athletics. Like most college students, student-athletes need to enjoy themselves, relax, and have a good time, and Murfreesboro fits the bill. Murfreesboro is one of the fastest growing cities in the south and has a population of over 100,000. Rutherford County has more than 250,000 residents. A short 30-minute drive from Nashville, Music City U.S.A., Murfreesboro is a large city with a small-town atmosphere. Murfreesboro has many appealing places to shop, eat, and socialize. One of the largest outdoor shopping malls in the region, the Avenue of Murfreesboro, opened in 2007. This specialty center combines premier national retailers, select local merchants, and specialty restaurants in an attractive setting that is popular with students. There are several beautiful parks and walkways throughout the city, and numerous lakes are located close by for swimming, water skiing, and boating. History buffs will enjoy the 600-acre Stones River Battlefield, Oaklands historic site, the Sam Davis home, Fortress Rosecrans, and Cannonsburgh Village. All are rich in history and welcome visitors.
