# Up Next Nashville

> Up Next Nashville is a consumer publication covering what is opening in
> Nashville, Tennessee, and what is in the works. It tracks new businesses
> from public filings and announcements, usually well before they open.

Coverage: Davidson County, Tennessee. A filing is the paperwork step
that comes before opening day, so most listed businesses are "in the
works," not open; listings say which. In total, 9,963 businesses are
currently being tracked, 711 of them confirmed open. A featured article
may name the commercial address of a business it profiles, as normal
editorial practice; listings never carry addresses.
