At the beginning of the decade, Laurel HillBerryville maintained a strong White Majority status, with white residents comprising 71% of the population in 2013. Over the years, there has been a gradual shift towards increased diversity. By 2022, the white population decreased to 59%, while the Black population increased from 18% in 2013 to 29% in 2022. This trend suggests a transition from a Low Diversity community towards Moderate Diversity.
The Hispanic population has fluctuated over the years, peaking at 13% in 2016 but settling at 8% by 2022. The Asian population has remained relatively stable. The emergence of a "two or more races" category in recent years (3% in 2022) indicates an increasing complexity in the neighborhood's racial composition.
The median income in Laurel HillBerryville has shown considerable volatility over the decade. Starting from $68,679 in 2013, it decreased to $61,940 in 2015 before rising to $87,160 in 2021, then decreasing again to $75,996 in 2022.

The trends observed in Laurel HillBerryville reflect broader patterns of increasing diversity seen in many urban areas across the United States. The gradual decrease in the white majority and the increase in Black and multiracial populations align with national trends of growing diversity in metropolitan areas.
The income fluctuations, particularly the rise between 2020 and 2021 followed by a decline in 2022, may be indicative of broader economic trends related to the COVID-19 pandemic and its aftermath. The neighborhood's transition towards Moderate Diversity suggests it may be becoming more representative of Nashville's overall demographic makeup.
Laurel HillBerryville appears to be a neighborhood in transition, moving from a Low Diversity, White Majority area towards a more moderately diverse community. This demographic evolution, coupled with fluctuating economic indicators, suggests a dynamic neighborhood adapting to broader societal changes.
