Great Rural Towns in Tennessee to Retire or Buy a Home.

Want to find a rural Tennessee town to buy a home? Who doesn’t? Today we looking at great rural towns in Tennessee.
We did a video a couple of weeks back about great rural towns to retire or live as remote workers across the United States, we had a bunch of people ask if we could expand and do it by state. So, we are.
A couple of things about rural Tennesee towns, they rarely have jobs so you have to bring one or not need one, and have good car insurance because if you aren’t used to the area you will run into something. So get online and get a good auto insurance quote.
Or find a local insurance company’s office and walk-in. Do people still do that?
With the towns in this video, we looking for that sweet spot. A decent place to live that isn’t to close to any major cities, not 5 hours away from a hospital or so far out they have horrible internet. Those two things knocked a lot of nice small towns off this list.
In the last video, I explained that not all states have 10 good rural towns and I don’t want to waste your time with some places that aren’t worthy of this list. Tennessee has great cities and suburbs but when it comes to rural towns they got 5. Thompson's Station, TN was on the overall video. So technically they have one more.

I lived in TN for about 6 months and I will say that the state is beautiful no matter where you are in the state.

Born and raised in this great state of Tennessee grew up on the Cumberland Plateau. Now I live in East Tennessee around the Knoxville area. One thing I will say is I wish people would stop moving here it’s ridiculous. I constantly see people from the north east and California moving here. Just don’t try and change our way of life here.

I was born and raised in Tennessee, its a beautiful state with a lot of really nice people. I've been living in new England for 15 years and it still blows my mind how rude people can be.

I come from a small town in the friendliest province in Canada: hearts delight, Newfoundland. Retired 5 years ago at age 45 in Loretto, TN (2 hr south of Nashville) and married an awesome country boy from Pulaski. The people here are just like home: kind and happy. Great vid!

Born in TN live in TN and will be laid to rest in TN. Been many places seen many things but nothing compares to my beloved Tennessee.

Born and raised here in East Tennessee. Im a town over from Blaine. I absolutely love my small town. I wouldnt trade the view of the mountains and farms for anything!

[TNdawg]

If you move here, please understand how to be polite and socially decent to your neighbors. Southern hospitality as we call it. Wave high to people at 4 way stops, don’t drive fast, and make small talk at the grocery store.

Or, just don’t move here

As much as I enjoy the Smokies and the TN/NC border region, the plateau region between Nashville and Chattanooga is absolutely stunning. I love crossing Nickajack Lake and crossing the plateau at Monteagle on I-24 on the way to Nashville.

Just came across your video I was born and raised in Parsons, Tn. As a Teenager I couldn't wait to get out of that town but now that I'm older I can appreciate all that Parsons has to offer.

Tennessee used to be such a beautiful, peaceful state to live in with flat land in the West to gorgeous Rolling Hills in middle Tennessee and then the mountains of East Tennessee. It used to be full of rivers, streams, creeks and beautiful farmland and plenty of Woodlands. There were some larger cities scattered in each direction with many rural towns and communities where people knew neighbors for miles around. Now much of that is being chopped up, divided covered in concrete, Blacktop with subdivision after subdivision replacing all the beautiful landscape and destroying wildlife habitats and Monstrous size Mansions carving out CHUNKS of the previously beautiful, untouched mountains. Not to mention people coming in from other states with pockets so deep that they drive the prices Sky High so people that were born and raised here as Generations before them cannot even afford the American dream. the irony of that is that a good number of the newbies don't even want to integrate with the born and raised here locals viewing them as low class, low life rednecks. Goodbye my BEAUTIFUL Tennessee, so thankful I knew you when you were the REAL DEAL!!

Moved to Greenback from MI in 91. I was excepted very well and can say that I have never met anyone in TN that is from TN that I didn't like! So....yep, I'm dug in like a Tick and ain't never leaving!

[angiejones]

We don’t want more rude people here in Tennessee. We want to keep it beautiful.

[leeannreinhart]

We lived in NE TN and absolutely loved it!! We would still be there if the place where my husband worked did not close. Now retired would love to go back. Miss it terribly and consider it home. I am from IN but that area spoke to me.

[eddiechavez]

Retired to Tennessee going on 5 years. Love the people ! Moved from South Florida and I wouldn't change it for anything. This state and it's people are awesome, so thankful !

[chriscosby]

I live in Middle Tennessee, but East Tennessee is especially nice.

You mentioned smallmouth fishing. Even as a kid in the 60's I read about Tennessee's great smallie lakes and rivers. Getting down to Dale Hollow is on my bucket list. Last I heard, that's still the home of the world's record.

[datamyt]

Grew up in Tullahoma, now live in Murfreesboro. Tennessee is great for outdoor activity, better east of I-24 because of terrain.

[tooge]

spent the best 14 1/2 years of my life living in east TN, both Johnson City and Cleveland, with Barbara.
Miss both dearly

The cost of housing in east Tennessee is skyrocketing thanks to all the people fleeing liberal cesspools like California, Illinois, New York and most of New England. They show up paying over asking price for a house with cash which is driving our property taxes up. Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge are always bumper to bumper traffic with hardly a single car wearing a Tennessee license plate.

Videos like this are why TN is getting flooded with out-of-staters.
