Is Tennessee getting overcommercialized like big cities?

I am curious to know if cities like Nashville is becoming another commercialized area. I personally dont like how a lot of places are becoming like California or other big cities where extensive shopping malls and tourist attractions are developing. I really hope not from what I hear TN is known for so much natural beauty.

1. I live in Tennessee, and I don't think that it is being too commercialized. In fact, the unemployment rate is at like 7%. The area around the Smokies is definitely overcommercialized (Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg) and the traffic is bad, but the Smokies are beautiful.
