Leaving Nashville

[u/Impossible-Pomelo-85]

Have you been living here for a while now and are you wanting to move either because of the traffic, politics, home prices, jobs, culture or religion etc ? Please share your opinions because I have plenty and want to hear other's! Thank you!

Oh and where are you moving to?

26M, grew up in Nashville.

I’m moving to Chicago in January. Nashville has just changed too much and not always for the better. The traffic and lack of public transportation is unbearable. The exponential rise in rent and housing prices is ridiculous considering what Nashville has to offer. Last but not least, Tennessee state government is trying its absolute best to kneecap the city in whichever ways they can.

This is my hometown but I need a change of scenery in my personal opinion. I just don’t feel happy or even content here :/

Chicago is on our list, too but holy shit the property taxes are almost 4x TN.

that's why i moved from IL to TN nearly 3 years ago. paying 12k in property taxes on an 1800 sq ft house built in the 50's hurt my heart.

Yeah, that’s painful. Don’t blame you.
