Johnson City Tennessee - Is It a Good Place to Live?

[@annam.5587]

I'm binging all the JC videos I can find as I've set my sights on it to call home. This has been the most informative video I have found so far. Thank you!

[@rhondazwelling7473]

Excellent video. We are visiting Johnson City next week. We currently relocated to Greenville, SC. Love Greenville but getting very populated. Looking forward to exploring the tri cities..

[@maryannguhl4194]

Thanks for the video on the tri-cities. This will help us decide where the best place is for when we move, which hopefully will be next month. Thank you, Maryann

Great video and information on Johnson City.

[@TNVAHomeTeam]

Glad it was helpful!

Born in J.C.! (Jay See, Jesus Christ, it's Johnson CITY!) I still love my hometown!! Welcome aboard, new peeps! TRI Airport is the next big infrastructure project! Can't wait for bigger birds and better flights!

Depends on if you remember Johnson City of the past or if you are from Chicago or NYC. It's too crowded now and getting worse by the day.

[@ariaalexander4219]

We’re hoping to visit the area in august and would love to explore nice , family friendly neighborhoods.

Would it surprise you to learn that there are cities and towns in Canada that enjoy much milder winters than Johnson City, Tennessee?

[@TNVAHomeTeam]

100%

[@mathematicaleconomist4943]

@@TNVAHomeTeam Google Search the following (and compare). Take note especially how much warmer the nights are during the winter months (January and February!). The averages will directly "pop up" on the very top of the first page of Google... 1. Johnson City, Tennessee average January temperatures. 2. Port Renfrew, Canada average January temperatures. 3. Victoria, Canada average January temperatures.

[@mathematicaleconomist4943]

@@TNVAHomeTeam It would be easiest to simply copy/paste all 3 searches into the Google search engine (one at a time, of course!).

[@thomassmith7214]

@@mathematicaleconomist4943 I looked it up and Port Renfrew is actually colder than Johnson City during the afternoons in winter. Only at night is it warmer.

[@mathematicaleconomist4943]

@@thomassmith7214 Dec, Jan, and Feb. Add up all 6 night and day temperatures. Divide by 6. Port Renfrew averages a few degrees warmer (the meteorological definition of a warmer winter). The reason it is defined that way is because it stays milder for longer (many more hours each winter day). So it will be warmer throughout the morning and evening hours (and, of course, overnight). Johnson City peaks slightly higher during a brief period at the peak of the day. So, you will actually feel the sensation of a milder winter (overall) in Port Renfrew. The overall average winter temperature in Johnson City is something like 40 degrees (in Port Renfrew, it's something like mid-40s).

we will be visiting the area next fall for potential relocation within the nect 5 years. do you have any videos regarding families that are looking for 5acre equestrian properties with trail accessibility as well as school ratings? i am looking for a town that potentially has a downtown with no cars if that even excists in the area (european roots here). any suggestiions would be great😊

[@TommyboyGTP]

Are there any gun clubs and ranges in the tri-city area? I like to do everything from rifle, pistol, to sporting clays and skeet with shotguns.

[@TNVAHomeTeam]

I'm sure you've Googled this. The only one I've been to personally is Kettlefoot Rod & Gun Club, which is in Bristol, VA. I'm betting there are others around but I just don't know them.

[@TommyboyGTP]

@@TNVAHomeTeam Thank you i'll look more into it

[@pdub10823]

How many public golf courses in the Johnson city area?

[@kendalsaulsberry2180]

I am looking to get a homestead

[@onedirection3510]

How are the condos in JC as far as price and availability? Are other tri city locations better for condos? Thanks 🙏

[@TNVAHomeTeam]

You'll find more condos in JC in general. Here's a link to all of the active condos in the area so that you can get an idea of what's out there - www.flexmls.com/share/9fAWw/Selected

[@amybarathStorminStormy]

Are the parks dog friendly? I'll be moving in May. Thank you for this video.

[@TNVAHomeTeam]

They are dog friendly, plus there's at least one actual dog park that I know of in JC.

[@amybarathStorminStormy]

Thank you for your reply. I'm renting for 1 year to save $$$ then I'll be in touch to buy a house!

[@dawson0610]

I just looked up home prices and they some of the most expensive I have seen. New average size homes at over $270 a sq ft. I can live cheaper in Colorado lol Did prices just sky rocket or what?

[@TNVAHomeTeam]

They're up maybe 30% in places over the last 2 years. But the median sales price in parts of town is $170k while others are $279k. Very location specific. Jonesboro is the most expensive area, most of the sales are new construction which is running sometimes $270/sq. ft like you mention. I just pulled all of the Johnson City active listings b/t $200k and $400k, median list price/sq. ft is $172. For new construction this jumps to $205/sq. ft. Some of the new construction not yet in the MLS though has jumped to the mid to upper $200's/ sq ft.

[@patboles4116]

Hmmm, population was 70,000 when I was there in 1997

[@clawhammer704]

High sales tax

[@user-et8vb6ux7r]

is there have how many korean live? cause im soon go to jhonson city for work, alreay emploeede

[@TNVAHomeTeam]

I'm not sure. I know there's a Korean church in Bristol but I don't know about Johnson City. There's a very good Korean restaurant in Elizabethton & I know the owner is Korean. You might give her a call & see what she says about the area. The name of the restaurant is Red Chili. Hope this helps!

[@doemo9095]

Is the crime rate high?

[@TNVAHomeTeam]

It really depends on what part of town you look at. Go to neighborhoodscout.com and take a look.

[@patboles4116]

There isnt enough manufacturing jobs there, they all went to Mexico or China

[@yeseniapastor7165]

It's probably a good place to retire

[@aliciapowell5762]

How is the crime?
