In this video, I go through the pros and cons of living near Johnson City Tennessee (Northeast TN).
I'm a full time realtor in the Tri-Cities area. Being a military family, we've lived in several places but I was born and raised in Kentucky. Now, we have decided to settle down in Northeast Tennessee....And we LOVE it here!
Tennessee has so much to offer! I hope my videos show that!

I've personally not had a bear encounter while hiking...but that's just luck. And as far as seeing them in my yard...that will depend on where people's homes are located. Most of the bears hang near the mountains/highly forester areas. Because I'm like a 25 minute drive to the base of the nearest mountain...I never see any bears near my house.

Grew up there, had to leave. The area is absolutely beautiful but the people are so religious it negatively affects eveything from medicine to education to the restaurant choices and jobs available. Not a tolerant area. Too conservative for the average person. Johnson City is better than some of the other towns in the region because it is slightly more secular. But you can do better. If you're randomly picking a palce to live in East Tennesee I recommend Knoxvile. The area doesn't deserve to thrive if it can't welcome all races, genders, orientations, and beliefs. If you're into bigotry and closed mindedness, enjoy! That's my view of the area. Some of the people are lovely and friendly and accepting but they are way out numbered. Live and let live.
