The Carnton neighborhood in Franklin, Tennessee, is characterized by low diversity with a 91% white population as of 2022. The median income in the area reached $123,616 in 2022, significantly above the national average. Carnton is historically significant due to its association with a pivotal Civil War battle and the presence of Carnton Plantation, a key historical landmark.
Over the past decade, Carnton has maintained its status as a low diversity community. The white population has remained dominant, fluctuating between 90% and 95% from 2013 to 2022. Minor shifts towards increased diversity have been observed, including a decrease in the Black population from 7% in 2013 to 1% in 2022, a slight increase in the Hispanic population from 2% to 3%, and growth in the "Two or More Races" category from 0% to 3%.
The median income in Carnton has shown an upward trend, increasing from $112,141 in 2013 to $123,616 in 2022, with a peak of $132,366 in 2021. This high income level correlates with the stable, predominantly white demographic composition. Population figures have remained relatively stable, fluctuating between 5,300 and 5,800 residents over the decade.
Carnton's demographic trends diverge from national patterns, which have generally shown increasing diversity over the past decade. The neighborhood's high median income is well above the national average, placing it among the more affluent communities in the country. This economic status likely contributes to its demographic stability and low diversity.
In conclusion, while Carnton shows minor shifts towards increased diversity, it remains a low diversity, high-income community. The slow pace of demographic change, coupled with rising incomes, suggests that any transition towards greater diversity is likely to be gradual and potentially limited by economic factors. The neighborhood's unique historical significance and economic prosperity continue to shape its demographic character, distinguishing it from broader national trends towards increased diversity in many urban and suburban areas.
