City of Chattanooga

Chattanooga today is a growing city with great potential that continues to attract attention and accolades from across the nation and the world. From Best Town Ever to Gig City, our city’s reputation for innovation and our high quality of life make us the envy of communities all across the country. New residents and businesses continue to arrive in our city and new amenities, restaurants, and activities are emerging to animate our downtown. Our residents remain deeply involved and engaged in the future of our community, but prosperity and security still remain far out of reach for far too many of our neighbors. And without a strategy and the will to act, these disparities will continue to widen, and our city will never reach its full potential. By acknowledging that some parts of our community have been historically neglected and need more intentional action and investment, Chattanooga can take the first steps in building a more just and prosperous community.
