How to prepare and behave

This is editorial guidance, not information from the employer.

Know your rights as a candidate and an employee:

The city

The job is in Memphis, TN. Below is what the official statistics say about living and working there.

How Memphis compares. Among the 80 largest places in Tennessee, Memphis is #2 by population, #3 for long commutes (#1 = fewest), #77 for homeownership (#1 = highest), #63 for household income (#1 = highest). Its county, Shelby County, is #6 of 95 counties for average pay ($71,518).

The place in numbers

Memphis has 618,980 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 8.8% of the population of Tennessee. It covers 290 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 2,136 people per square mile. The median age is 34.2, 12% younger than the state median (34.2 against 38.9).

Housing

The median gross rent is $1,181 a month (rent plus utilities), about the same as the state median ($1,181 against $1,189). Over a year that is 27.4% of the median household income. US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $169,000, which is 3.3 times the median household income ($51,736); a ratio under 4 usually means ownership is within reach for many households. 44.9% of households own their home, 33% below the state average (44.9% against 66.9%). A low ownership share points to a rental-heavy market with more apartments and shorter stays.

Work and pay

The Memphis, TN-MS-AR metropolitan area has 611,670 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $46,890 a year, 8% below the national median ($46,890 against $50,980). The biggest occupation groups are transportation and material moving (104,600 jobs, median $44,540); office and administrative support (83,140 jobs, median $45,940); sales and related (50,520 jobs, median $35,940). The area is most specialised in transportation and material moving (1.9 times) and protective service (1.3 times), where the share of workers is well above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are management ($116,680) and computer and mathematical ($89,420). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of Shelby County was 4.4%. 63.6% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in Shelby County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.

Getting around

Among workers, 76.2% drive alone, 0.8% use public transit, 1.7% walk, 9.2% work from home. 4.9% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 68% below the state average (4.9% against 15.2%).

People and education

28.0% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 10% below the state share (28.0% against 31.1%). 7.7% of residents were born outside the United States, 26% above the state share (7.7% against 6.1%). The poverty rate is 23.1%, 68% above the state rate (23.1% against 13.8%).

Climate

The warmest month is Jul, averaging 82°F (27.8°C), and the coolest is Jan at 39°F (3.8°C). About 1,358 mm (53 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; May is the wettest month (138 mm) and Sep the driest (81 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.

Nearby cities to compare

Closest cities in this guide: Germantown (11 miles, rent 54% higher); Southaven (11 miles, rent 22% higher); Horn Lake (12 miles, rent 22% higher); Bartlett (12 miles, rent 39% higher). Rent differences are against Memphis; use the Compare tab to put any two cities side by side.
