Rockvale, Tennessee has about 1,611 people. That count is a 2020–2024 Census average, not a headcount from one day.

A typical home is worth about $449,500.

HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Rutherford County is $1,798 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Rockvale. It runs from October 2026 through September 2027.

In the Nashville-Davidson--Murfreesboro--Franklin, TN metro area, prices sit at 96.3 when the U.S. average is 100. That is a 2024 BEA index.

Tennessee does not tax wages. A typical combined sales tax is 9.6% as of January 1, 2026. That mix is statewide, not Rockvale's exact store tax.

In July 2026, a typical Tennessee home paid 13.71¢ per kilowatt-hour. That is a state average from EIA, not Rockvale's bill.

EIA did not publish a 2025 all-grades gas price for Tennessee in the table we use.
