    My great grandparents left Tennessee in the early 1840s. They were anti slavery and moved to California by covered wagon. When I was considering applying to the University of the South in Sewanee, my relatives were adamant in their disagreement with my choice. They said that TN hadn’t really changed, it would be like stepping back in time, and absolutely the wrong environment for learning. As it was, the best public university in the country was a few miles from our home and my years at Cal Berkeley changed my life in a wonderful way . That was fifty years ago. I saw Spanish moss on a visit to SC and am satisfied with that.

    I moved to Tennessee about 11 years ago to about 1-1.5 hrs outside Nashville and it was the best decision I made. People who kept telling me I was going to experience nothing, but racism because I'm Mexican and brown. I'll admit, I have experienced some racism, I've been called racial slurs, followed, and disrespected, but for the most part I've met the best people who also disagreed with the racial events I've experienced as some friends were with me when it happened. I don't think I'd ever move out of Tennessee.

    I've lived in TN my entire life. Yes we are religious, but we don't push our beliefs on others. No, we don't like being told what to do. But we don't tell others what to do or how to live. We are extremely welcoming, but that doesn't mean that we put up with trespassers. We like our privacy and space and definitely will defend both. Yes, we have a lot of guns. We mainly have guns for hunting, sport, hobbies, and protection. We don't run around shooting people or up in the air like the wild west. We are extremely responsible with gun safety and take being responsible gun owners very seriously. We treat everyone in our communities equally whether you are rich, middle class, or poor. No judgement here. The older generations are a little more set in their ways more so than the younger generations, but all are welcoming. We don't tolerate liars, thieves, abusers, or judgemental people. Also don't litter here. We take pride in keeping our communities and our forests clean. We enjoy being helpful and helping those in need. Things you might want to avoid are debating religions and politics. We don't really care how you live as long as you're not hurting others around you. We are fiercely protective over our children, families, and friends. We have core values that we stick to concerning those matters. As for the weather, we basically experience all four seasons. We do tend to have wet snows, hot summers, beautiful fall colors, and unpredictable springs. TN is a great place to live if you're raising a family down to if you're on your own. We look out for and take care of our neighbors. We have something for everyone. It's a wonderful place to live! I was the first in my family to be born in TN (on my mother's side). My family (from my mother's side) came down from PA, NJ, and NY. I would spend some summers up north, but I always missed being home. My father's side of the family have been here for a very long time, traced back for many generations. TN just gives me piece of mind, makes me feel safe, and excepted. Plus the food is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!

    I have lived in Middle Tennessee and parts of East Tennessee all my life, 59 now. The only thing that has changed are the roads and a lot more people moving in from other states. We have four seasons here 4 months of spring 3 months of Summer 5 months of fall usually. We do have snow six to eight times a year it doesn't last very long in most cases a day or two. About every 10 years we'll get a good 8 to 10 inches of snow. There is a lot of lakes and rivers and streams here to fish or paddle, and tons of places to hike. Property is starting to get much more pricey than just 5 years ago still affordable ,much cheaper to build than existing homes. I've seen Nashville or middle Tennessee bring in a lot of big companies that pay very well wages I think that's one of the biggest draws here. Bridgestone, Nissan, GM, tons of it companies, of course the Tennessee Titans and the predators hockey and soon to open this spring the new Nashville soccer club and stadium. Private schools are much better than the other schools but there are some good magnet schools some private schools are actually affordable. Great hospitals you have Vanderbilt ,St Thomas, Centennial some of the best cancer hospitals and heart hospitals in the nation. We are very conservative here but there's also room for your own opinion as long as you don't push it on us we won't push it on you. So pack your stuff get to stepping be a Volunteer!!!!!!

    One downside to consider if you want to move to a rural area- Tennessee has one of the highest rates of rural hospital closures. You may want to check out the healthcare situation. If you have a heart attack or a car accident, the nearest hospital in a rural area might be 60 or more miles away.

We have so many from out of state that are bringing in so much money and locals just can't compete. Where I live we have so many living in hotels and on waiting lists for apartments that are months or even a year out from an opening while properties are being bought up site unseen from people that don't even live here.

    I grew up in Nashville and I have seen it change and not always for the better. The price of housing is horrendous and lots of native Nashvillians have moved away because of this and in turn those areas are now getting out of hand when coming to the price to rent or buy. I see a lot of out of state tags and not always on the interstate and I can honestly say a lot of these folks do not know how to drive or even read a sign. A lot of our natural scenery has been lost to new subdivisions which also makes for more traffic. Much respect for bringing up that yes we are very conservative and love our Second Amendment rights. We love our guns and the outdoors. If you are an anti gun person definitely don't move here.

    A few years back I worked for a company that did promotions for Providence Marketplace in Mt Juliet TN. I am from Minnesota so we took a road trip and stayed in Nashville at an Air BNB. The first thing I noticed about our time in TN was how friendly everyone was. People in my state always say “Minnesota nice” but we are not really that nice. My neighbors occasionally wave but are also extremely critical of everything from our dogs barking to our fence to my 13 year old trick or treating. So TN impressed me with their true friendliness. In addition, the state is very pretty! Entering TN I fell in love with the natural surroundings. Nashville is a lot different than other parts of the state that are more rural. People drive a bit crazy on the freeway which was maybe my only complaint. I want to spend a week looking at different neighborhoods because Minnesota has become so terrible with masking, lockdowns, and liberal bs that I just want to scream. I’m really conservative so I am losing my patience for this state. It would be hard to leave behind family but we could always visit. I’m tired of the politics and snow so I’d welcome giving TN a try.

    You forgot to tell em about the purple paint law. If you see purple paint on trees,fences or on the property line. It means the owner will use deadly force. Do not tresspass on property like this TN castle law goes to the property line as long as it marked by purple paint. They only need one sign that says no tresspassing as long as purple paint is on trees, fence, along the property line. So for those that also like to hunt, fish don't assume open land is public land it probably owned by someone. TN property owners are very pro property rights. For you golfers don't assume an empty lot you can use to drive on someone probably owns it. I bring this up because a lot of California have been arrested on my land thinking they could do this. Not sure why folks think they can just go on someone land and do what they want then cry when they get arrested. I have had hunters arrested thinking they could just hunt on my ranch/farm/land. I have had golfer thinking they can use my land that I use for cattle, soy, corn other crops as a driving range. Do you realize how much damage a golf ball can do when a farm equipment comes in contact with it. All of these folks I have had arrested and held at gun point in the past 10 years or more all usually with in a year of moving to TN. Respect other folks property. If you don't pay the property tax of the property you have no right to use it with out owners permission and you better get it in written other wise law enforcement will always take the word of of the property owner. Also some driveways are long almost like a road but it a driveway. Again learn the area and do not blindly follow gps device or phone. Just cause it looks like a road yet the signs says private drive does not mean you get to use it. Keep in mind 9 out of 10 TN resident own firearms. Most TN property owners are generous but ask seek permission to use their land Do not just think you can just go on to property to hunt or use it because it open. If it fenced don't hop the fence or cattle wire fencing might just might be in the cattle pasture with a very large bull.

    As someone that just moved to TN a couple of months ago from CA I can say that your presentation is pretty much right on. I researched the entire US to determine where I wanted to retire and TN ended up being my choice. I purchased 2 acres out in the country about one hour south of Nashville. My property taxes are $1,000.00 per year. My .9 acre property in CA was $9k per year. I registered 4 of my vehicles in TN for a total of $220.00 compared to $2,500.00 in CA per year. Additionally I just changed auto insurance and for the exact same policy & coverages I saved $1,200.00 per year. Additionally food is cheaper at restaurants and at the grocery store. Besides the obvious cost savings I love the people, the privacy, and the beautiful rolling hills. I also love the weather. We have had days in November in the mid 70's which is warmer then the weather in Nor Cal. Only small down side for me is the bugs are no joke as he mentioned in the video. However, I will be ready next spring and will spray around the property which should help that.

A lot of people who lived in CA pre 90's believe that the state has left them, and while the area around Nashville is probably growing too quickly it's nothing like the growth we saw in CA in the 60's-80's. Taxes are low and the government respects the rights of its citizens. Real estate in Nashville and Williamson County is high but not nearly as high as CA. If you don't have to live in Nashville, Brentwood, or Franklin you can find affordable housing. The values as a whole comport with my own, and probably yours as well.

Also while TN is religious I'm glad my parents raised me to know right from wrong and let me decide if I wanted to participate in religion or not. I don't care what religion people are just don't force your beliefs on me or others. Whether people are Democrat or Republican, religious or non religious all people are human beings with feelings and just want to be respected.

    I have lived in WNC for over 40 years. Close to the Tenn line and alot of the same values there are here as well. We love our family our GOD and our guns. We love the freedom that comes with living here. I relocated here from Maine. I didn't come here to change the way of life to be like where I was from. I came here because I believe in the freedom that this area affords me to have. If you move here with that attitude you will be welcomed with open arms. God Speed...

    Same here... Didn't want most of what was happening in Cali and want nothing changed in TN to match Cali. I just got my TN license and next is my CCW permit

    Been in Tennessee most my life and this video comes of as a positive spin to some negative aspects of our state. I also agree that Nashville does not represent all of Tennessee.

    #1 rule when moving to TN…Leave your democrat liberal politics in the town you are leaving. We don’t want or need ANY of that nonsense in our beautiful state! But other than that we welcome everyone with open arms and a hi ya’ll!

    That’s pretty much the same thing they’re saying in Idaho and Texas. Texans love their guns and they don’t want liberal politics from California migrants. I live in California and I’m disappointed to hear that some California migrants are choosing to bring their liberal politics. I happen to live in California and I can’t stand anyone talk about how they support for senile Joe and Gavin newsom. I don’t intend on moving to any state just to buy a home I can afford to buy. Let’s go Brandon!

    I lived in TN for 38 years. You hit the nail on the head when it comes to allergies, heat, and humidity. TN holds a place in my heart, but my allergies have been drastically better since I left.

    Request that new movers to our state get a history book. You feel more connected and understand where you're living if you know the history of it...it's people...it's culture...values...etc.
