Can someone tell me about this state. I might have to live here for a year or so.What’s it like outside Nashville and Memphis in the smaller towns? Is it just old people and overweight people? Is it boring or things to do?
>>2874669If you think it's bad why are you going there? I don't get people like you
>>2874671Relative of mine lives there and I’d get to temporarily stay there rent free
>>2874669Memphis is one of the the worst places to live in the US. Nashville is a muh up and coming city pretending to be 2011 Brooklyn. Everything else is olds and fats.
Memphis is one of the 2 worst US cities I've ever been to. Maybe St Louis was worse? The weather was definitely worse in Memphis. I never felt safe for even one minute. I do like the hiking east of Nashville. There are lots of great waterfalls and parks. Chattanooga has great white water rafting. Gatlinburg is a nightmarish hellscape tourist trap. The mountains are pretty, but it rains way too much.
On a tous quelque chose en nous, de Tennessee
Memphis has blues, bbq, Graceland and one of the highest violent crime rates in the nation. Nashville is like whitebread Vegas but there’s a lot of real country music behind the pop country schlock if that’s your thing. The further east you go the more scenic it gets. Chattanooga has Civil War battlefields and is underrated as a midsize city. Knoxville is the big university town but not much else happening. I’m from the south so I’m ok with rednecks and small towns. Don’t act like a tard and people will accept you.
>>2874673I live in the Eastern side. And meth and mountains. And every big store (such as Ikea) being almost exactly 5 hours away making it JUST annoying enough for you not to want to bother. Oh and political issues I wont get into, but know if youre not a white Protestant, while the people will be generally friendly, the actual on paper laws will be less so. Racism n whatnot is more casual here, but less hostile I find, compared to living in Boston as a teen.
Memphis' local govt was culturally enriched around 1991 and went from the cleanest city in America to being too corrupt and too low-IQ to function. Most of the populace that can afford to has fled to surrounding counties and suburbs (or relocated entirely). You kinda need to know what areas are safe, but thanks to Section 8 housing and other policies, the list of those areas is getting quite thin. The National Guard surge is a band-aid on a gaping wound. East Tennessee hasn't been destroyed by Zog/Neo-Zimbabweans yet. So I'm reluctant to gas it up too much. Lots of hiking opportunities there and Nuclear power plants.Nashville has always been a hub for the country music scene, I guess the Midwest and Rustbelt types started fleeing there after their economies and cities were destroyed.I mean mind most of America to be kinda boring, so IDK what TN more or less exciting for you. Maybe if you named some interests or anything else.
>>2874691tennessee is annoyingly christian, but the part west of chatt/knoxville and east of nashville is quite pretty in parts
>>2874733>tennessee is annoyingly christianFor someone not used to it, all the churches, giant crosses, billboards and weird handmade “Get Right With God!” type signs can be jarring. No one’s going to forcible convert you at gunpoint but you’ll get a lot of southern fried Ned Flanders annoying behavior. Take up someone’s invite to church and meet a nice girl!
>>2874697I kinda enjoy dangerous American cities in a sick way, its like choosing the hardest difficulty level. If you go to a dangerous country then you always have to be on edge.
>>2874691>but know if youre not a white Protestant,>>2874733>tennessee is annoyingly christianThen stick to coastal cities, bugmen
