Midtown is an older section of the city and very artsy. It's a pretty hip place and I think mostly still a "good" section of town. Been awhile since I've been out that way.

If you live in the city there may be a few places you can walk to, depending on what you're looking for. Downtown has a lot of walking-to spots, especially on Beale Street, but walking at night is "iffy" if you're off the beaten path.

Where I live is on a dead end street. There are probably 20-25 houses on it but the street is hilly and has a curve so I can only see maybe 6-8. Older sections of Tipton County are more spread out, but new houses are practically on top of each other, because it's a growing area. If you live in a town close to the square, you can walk to a few places. I'm in the county but there are a variety of places to eat within 15-20 minutes either direction. Granted I'm right on the highway too.
