Leaving Nashville Discussion

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?

Ding ding ding

Also, y’all. Nashville does not have bad traffic. Outside of rush hour it’s nothing.

Yep. Nashville traffic isn’t shit compared to Philadelphia or even Atlanta traffic. I would gladly drive here in rush hour over either of those other two cities.

I've lived in LA, NorCal, Twin Cities, Raleigh, Philadelphia and drove a box truck delivering to NYC, and Boston was the closest city to me for more than a decade. I've driven extensively in those places and elsewhere. This place has BY FAR the most unhinged driving I've EVER experienced. I'm no angel either but holy moly.....it's hilarious to me that Nashville is only the 13th highest in fatalities. At least it's not Memphis which is #1.

I am not a shy driver at all, but after being here a few months, the people here are the absolute worst drivers I’ve encountered; I’ll take NYC drivers over these crazies 😂
