117 Otis St

Otis Street is a low-traffic residential block in central Jackson's 38301 zip code, set back from the North Highland Avenue corridor. The street stays quiet while putting you minutes from every major anchor in the city. That's the unusual thing about this location — the density of access doesn't come with the noise of a commercial block. Medical care, groceries, the Farmers Market, college campuses, and the Jackson Walk trail are all two minutes or less by car, yet the street itself feels like an established neighborhood. For renters who want central Jackson without the tradeoffs, it's a hard address to beat.
