Castleton Township’s list, next door, has one name: Leonora Ainsworth. 506 towns across Michigan can name a famous person born there. No town in Michigan lists more than Dearborn, with 63. After Dearborn, the next longest list in Michigan is Muskegon’s, with 61.

Who’s listed here

Famous people come from Wikidata (people whose birthplace is Nashville), checked against each person’s English Wikipedia article and ranked by how many Wikipedia languages cover them. Nobody born in Nashville has passed that check yet, and nobody born within 35 miles is listed.
