Chattanooga is the city I'd move to if I got to choose another in the Volunteer State than where we are. Do much to do , unique area ,tons of history , a reasonable drive to mountains , sea or lakes/ rivers plus there's a big resurgence of resterants & city activities & crime decreases. Not to mention the closeness to Atlanta OR Nashville tho' I'd mostly be psyched to be that close to AOP and other wheelin options.
You're gonna be happy. Congrats!
