Real ranges from published 2025-2026 cost data, with the sources listed, so you know the number before anybody shows up with a clipboard.
The short answer
Angi puts a concrete driveway at $8 to $20 per square foot, with $6,400 as the average total. A 24x36-foot driveway (864 sq ft) averages about $9,950, in a range of $6,900 to $13,000 (Angi, April 2026). These are national numbers. I couldn't verify a Middle Tennessee figure, so get local quotes.
