I can say without reservation that some of the happiest times of my childhood were camping in the southern States with my parents, including Tennessee.

Here's the irony... I realize you're business is selling properties, so you have to market and solicit for customers. Yet, the very reasons you give for moving there will disappear as you attract more and more people from areas (CA, NJ, NY, CT MA, WA, OR, ect ect) that are very different both culturally and especially politically! Trust me, we live in what use to be a very rural NE state. As it grew and was overrun by buyers from these same states, what made it special was lost. House prices went crazy, traffic grew, crime grew, local govts, school boards, local reps positions were taken over by people who have a very different point of view. The simple local folks that use to look out and care about each other were driven out further and further. Today me have very few if any locals left in many towns, "Everyone" is from away and the whole place has changed, and not for the better! Locals that grew up here, can't even afford to live here anymore! Yeah, they say we will adapt and just want to fit it and live the same way.. it never happens!! People are a products of their early environments and hardly ever change... Okay, you'll have some, but the majority will not! 15 to 20 years from now, you will have changed the whole place from what and the way Life Should Be!! Good Luck! Kennebunkport, Maine

With a crime rate of 36 per one thousand residents, Johnson City has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes - from the smallest towns to the very largest cities. One's chance of becoming a victim of either violent or property crime here is one in 28. Within Tennessee, more than 92% of the communities have a lower crime rate than Johnson City. Importantly, when you compare Johnson City to other communities of similar population, then Johnson City crime rate (violent and property crimes combined) is quite a bit higher than average. Regardless of how Johnson City does relative to all communities in America of all sizes, when NeighborhoodScout compared it to communities of similar population size, its crime rate per thousand residents stands out as higher than most. Now let us turn to take a look at how Johnson City does for violent crimes specifically, and then how it does for property crimes. This is important because the overall crime rate can be further illuminated by understanding if violent crime or property crimes (or both) are the major contributors to the general rate of crime in Johnson City. From our analysis, we discovered that violent crime in Johnson City occurs at a rate higher than in most communities of all population sizes in America. The chance that a person will become a victim of a violent crime in Johnson City; such as armed robbery, aggravated assault, rape or murder; is 1 in 281. This equates to a rate of 4 per one thousand inhabitants. In addition, NeighborhoodScout found that a lot of the crime that takes place in Johnson City is property crime. Property crimes that are tracked for this analysis are burglary, larceny over fifty dollars, motor vehicle theft, and arson. In Johnson City, your chance of becoming a victim of a property crime is one in 31, which is a rate of 32 per one thousand population.

Roberta. We don’t handle rentals. You didn’t mention if you are looking for a short term or long term rental. If you are looking for something short term, you may want to consider an Airbnb.

Great video. Thank you. There are two burning questions I have if someone could address I would appreciate it. 1. Congestion? My husband loves the Nashville area but it is way too congested for me. If there is a large influx of transplants from other parts of the country then are you seeing the small town vibe diminishing? Traffic growing? How is the infrastructure keeping up? 2nd, and I hope I don't offend anyone, but i want to leave California for many reasons and a huge motivator is political. I'm not going to get into a political debate, but can anyone share where Johnson City sits politically? Thanks!
@LivinginJohnsonCityTennessee2 жыл бұрын
The traffic in JC and the surrounding areas is very mild compared to Nashville. JC’s population is only 71k compared to Nashville’s population of 701k. Tennessee was rated the sixth most conservative state in 2021 by World Population Review.

I have lived here all my life and one of the reasons I love it is because I feel safe. Of course, you have to be aware of your surroundings and take the usual safety precautions and some neighborhoods are safer than others. But, overall, I enjoy the fact that I don’t have to feel uneasy when I am out and about.

@@LivinginJohnsonCityTennessee yup Stephanie, you are correct. Area Vibes gave JC an F for crime and Niche gives it a C. Best Places gives JC a 27 for crime with the U.S. average being 23. So yes a bit confusing. Crime stats shouldn't be subjective.
