How Hawthorne is helping residents love where they live

The data is clear: The era of the apathetic apartment owner is over.
Residents want more from their living arrangement than snails-pace maintenance requests and a single whiteboard at the entrance that reads, “We’re all in this together.”
People crave connectivity. They want to love where they live.
Heck, that’s why NOOGAtoday exists — and that ethos has been the guiding principle behind Hawthorne Residential Partners.
Here’s how Hawthorne residents are “LIVE(ing) IT” up.
Community-first, experience-driven living
Hawthorne is elevating apartment living in Nooga thanks to its unique focus on exceptional service and an emphasis on creating memorable moments throughout the renting experience.
Their teams actively cultivate relationships with residents + the surrounding community, best highlighted by the wildly successful Hawthorne Experience Program.
This unique program gives residents the chance to connect with neighbors, explore new activities, and strengthen their sense of community through organized on-property events and other activations.
The goal: Create a sense of belonging within their apartment communities with events that include all-out pool parties and experiences hosted by local businesses like baking, yoga, painting + more.
Hawthorne has ranked No. 1 in resident satisfaction in the nation among NMHC Top 50 Managers for three consecutive years.
Hawthorne also has a Nationwide Online Reputation score of 86.61 out of 100, which represents an aggregate property rating across online review sites. (Psst: The industry average is 61.77.)
Visit any Nooga-based Hawthorne community on Google, and you’ll find countless reviews from the past year. A few of the highlights:
“We LOVE living here!” wrote Anastasia B. “Great community. Every member of the staff makes you feel like family.”
“I love living at Hawthorne at the W!” said Sarah Snyder. “The leasing office is the friendliest and most professional I have ever dealt with.”
Turns out, residents love living in apartments that build real relationships.
With two new communities — Hawthorne at Hixson and Hawthorne at Whiteoak — coming soon to the Hixson and Red Bank areas, where do you see yourself living?

The Magnum Mile — noted as “Chattanooga’s fastest track event” — will return to the track at McCallie School on Saturday, Aug. 24.
The race is part of the annual Cam Run, a day-long running event that honors the legacy of Cameron Bean, which is hosted by Fast Break Athletics + the Chattanooga Track Club.
The event features three main races:
The Magnum Mile Invite | Middle school + high school athletes
The Magnum Mile | Top 25 men + women from the morning’s Cam Run 5K
The Magnum Mile Elite | Competitive athletes from across the county — participation in this event is by invitation only, so filling out the interest form does not guarantee entry.
Got a little runner in the family? Sign them up for the Cam Kidz Fun Run taking place during the invitational — everyone gets a t-shirt and a medal.
The races are free + open to the public. Cash and special prizes will be given to the race winners.

If you have any leftover challah from Nosh-a-Nooga, might I recommend making it into French toast? It’s eggier than your average bread and makes for a rich breakfast treat.
