Just a few years ago, we saw GM shutter its Saturn division. Along with it went jobs at the Spring Hill GM plant. The plant never quite shut down all the way, but the layoffs in record numbers put a dent in the area's economy and housing market.
USA Today ran an article about the reopening of the plant. You can read it HERE.
Welcome back, GM, Spring Hill, and the housing market! We're glad you're coming back!

Nashville Has the Fifth Fastest Growing Job Market
We may not have immediate access to the ocean, and we may not be right around the corner from a ski resort, but we have a lot going for us. One thing is our stability. While other cities have had rapidly declining job markets, Nashville did not see those same results. We have plenty of people to work, and we are transitioning - two key ingredients to job growth.
The result? Increased sales in our housing market and a fairly stable one. While some skeptics in the area keep asking, "When's the market going to return?" I would say that it's here. It's not the rapidly increasing market of yesteryear, but it's increasing steadily. My listings have sold quickly (unless a short sale), and at higher prices than previously thought.
