[@annsantosmiller4274]

Just moved here less than a month and may I say, I love it People are so kind. No rude drivers. 🎉🎉🎉

[@HansDelbruck53]

There are a few rude drivers in the area, but the thing I notice most of all is that about 90% of drivers in the Johnson City area can't figure out how to use a turn signal.

[@Mrsbehavin59]

Speed limits 40 in town... Also... We aint changing mtn city intoa resort... Forget it.. too many endangered species that only live here.. bear sanctuary included.. dont complain, and dont be spraying weed killers and killing the environment... And youll be fine..

I am really glad I found you! We have been looking at Johnson City. Our goal is to move by June 1, 2024. Your videos are informative and helpful.

Thank you for watching our channel Laura! Feel free to reach out to us anytime. June 2024 will be here before you know it!

What a great video Stephanie. My jaw dropped when you mentioned Ryan Hall Y'all. We have been watching him too for about a year. He does a great job. Definitely going to check out the park where your video was shot. We recently went to Carvers Gap on Roan Mountain and hiked to Round Bald. This area is truly amazing with all it has to offer. We love it here. You and Shad helped us so much in finding a great house.❤❤❤

[@debrahelmlinger6256]

Have traveled all around Eastern to Cenral Tenn, have realatives outside of Nashville and Sevierville and attended the National Storytelling Festival in Jonesborough, beautiful state and hope to get to the western part. The funniest thing I heard from a local in a tiny bar out of Murfreesboro was they were tired of the Why Yankees, people who move to Florida and then move half way back up to Tennessee and they want to know whhhyyyy😂

We are creating a video about that very soon! Stay tuned!! Thank you for your comment and watching our KZbin channel.

That's why I'm watching this, the heat here in Houston has gotten out of control! Add that to the threat of hurricanes, and it's time to starting looking around. TN is looking good at this point.

Lived in Tricities my whole life great place to live if your not looking for great hospitals. You can always drive to Knoxville for that.

[@MsCubanmex]

Yes been looking to relocate to johnson city, been doing my research and disappointed about the hospitals there. Nothing but bad reviews on all . My husband is currently under cancer treatment and I need to make sure that he's in good hands if ever we need emergency and medical services. Unfortunately I suffer from health anxiety and was hoping for good hospitals in johnson city. We have family in bristol tn. ...and thought of moving there too...but the hospitals aren't any better...and I find johnson city more lively and interesting than bristol.

[@gregnorthway3814]

Taxes on dividends and interest are higher though I believe.

[@usddcm]

Nope, no income tax. Hall tax was repealed in 2021.

Brand new subscriber here. You folks sure are making Eastern Tennessee a very attractive option. My Mama spent her last years in Lynchburg, TN...many very happy years, but the mountains call to me. Thank you so much for posting your informative and entertaining videos. And if I do move up there...I promise not to Florida your Tennessee (yes, I'm trying to get away). :)

[@allenanderson3649]

Best bang for the buck Town in the area ? Prefer newer construction, house can be smaller, but bigger the garage the better, near golf ourse a plus, bigger property welcomed.

[@LivinginJohnsonCityTennessee]

There are homes being built throughout the area right now. New construction in Kingsport, Gray and Greeneville may be a good place to start. Most of the new construction homes have smaller lots. The older neighborhoods and rural areas offer more space.

[@Albear0419]

I also only want new construction no more than $500K. What cute and safe towns will offer that? I read Kingsport sucks and stinks because of the chemical plant and everything closes down. So, that being said I will pass on that. I read another nearby town is littered with trash .I do not want to live in a town with trash or abandoned cars. Can you recommend places I can consider based on my comments? Thank you. @@LivinginJohnsonCityTennessee

[@larrybailey43]

I like it .

[@Wags2525]

Hi Stephanie! Great video! We will be out this fall to find our retirement area. One question. I know there’s no Costco, but do you think the tri-city area will ever get one in the near future? I mean we have a small town here in Colorado population just under 9k that has a Costco and there’s NO big city anywhere nearby. Gypsum Colorado. The NE area also has the population of Asheville that would support it. I know Ash has a Trader Joe’s, but c’mon Tri-cities! Get a Costco and a Trader Joe’s pronto!!

[@LivinginJohnsonCityTennessee]

We are keeping our fingers crossed! No word of one coming in anytime soon. There is a Costco over in Knoxville. Johnson City is attracting people from across the country. I don’t think Costco can ignore us for too much longer!!

[@Wags2525]

Just watched your video on Troyers too. That place looks much bigger than Yoders! We never made it that far last fall but this fall is all about the Tri-City area.

[@alisonpaulson5564]

My property taxes in California is $5,000 and city tax is 7.75%

Excellent report, thorough and informative. We spent about two weeks in Gray TN. last year near the shore of Boone Lake. I love the area and would like to move there. However, the "little woman" prefers Florida. We'll see.

Are you a realtor? I'm a buyer, found a couple of properties I'm interested in and plan on driving out next week to look and make an offer. Can you help or refer someone? Are any realtors licensed in Tennessee AND NC? Thank you

[@LivinginJohnsonCityTennessee]

Yes, I am a realtor. We also have agents in our office that are licensed in NC. Feel free to email me with the property info. I will see if I can obtain additional information about the listings before you drive here. [e-mail] I look forward to hearing from you!

[@dianemurphy733]

Very informative video Stephanie. I do have a question-how is the health care there? I mean where is the closest big hospital? And do you have facilities that cater to the senior populations? Seniors that are very active I mean. Thanks Stephanie.

[@LivinginJohnsonCityTennessee]

I did a video called, Where are the hospitals in northeast Tennessee? 1 month ago. This video will tell you about the healthcare and where the hospitals are located. We have some very nice senior centers in Jonesborough, Johnson City and Kingsport that offer activities and support to seniors.

[@LivinginJohnsonCityTennessee]

What specific prices are you searching for?

[@scumpt]

We are considering moving from the Chicago area to TN and are very familiar with tornados. We have basements to go down into in the event of a tornado. Why are those not in many of the TN homes? What do people do if there is a tornado?

[@LivinginJohnsonCityTennessee]

There are many homes here with basements. If that is a concern of yours, you could focus on homes that do have a basement.

@@LivinginJohnsonCityTennessee Thank you!

Love this. How are electrical utility rates?

[@LivinginJohnsonCityTennessee]

I have lived in five states and I find them to be very reasonable. Our moderate seasons help keep the bills low also.

[@theboondockbungalow1816]

Nice video, it should attract a lot of liberals that want to escape northern cities. I can't wait till they get here and drive up real estate prices-as they have been doing for the last 3 years..., vote in a lot of liberal politicians, change our school boards, and usher in all of those lovely green new deal mandates. When people come here they don't change their mindset or there voting tactics, they all think "we can change this place and make it better than the sewer from which we came…" It's the same mindset as all these college graduates today think that, "Socialism/communism is a great idea, it's just never been done right before and we can do it right this time."
