Millington, TN
Homes for Sale
Home of NSA Mid-South. Affordable Shelby County living, strong VA loan buying power, and a short commute to the base — ideal for military families and first-time buyers alike.
Why Buyers Choose Millington
Millington, Tennessee is home to Naval Support Activity Mid-South — the Navy's Human Resources Center of Excellence and one of the largest single employers in Shelby County, with over 7,500 personnel and contractors on base. Millington sits about 21 miles north of downtown Memphis and offers some of the most affordable home prices in the entire metro area, making it a strong option for first-time buyers, growing families, and PCS military buyers using a VA loan.
On-base privatized housing through NSA Mid-South has only about 280 units, so many military families look off-base in Millington — and increasingly in nearby Bartlett, Arlington, and Atoka — for more space, more options, and often a shorter wait. As a VA loan and military relocation specialist, I help PCS families navigate this process from out of state or overseas, often without ever setting foot in Memphis until closing day.
