It seems like everyone is moving to Tennessee. Which is why I am moving out. Just one week and I’ll be in the gorgeous home I bought in Louisiana.

People have been flooding into Tennessee for years now, mostly escaping blue states like California and New York. They’ve turned our cities blue. The local Democrats (who are way more like Zell Miller than Obama or AOC!) have been complaining about how “the granola crowd from California have taken over the Dem party here in Knoxville for over a decade.

You’re more than welcome here, but be aware the massive influx of blue state escapees has caused outrageous traffic and sky high real estate and rental costs. Our granola mayors have accepted bus loads of homeless from NYC, so we got a sudden explosion of homeless druggies the city was not equipped to deal with and they are pushing their stolen shopping carts down highways and streets and ODing in parking lots in the good parts of town where you never used to see a single poor person, let alone homeless druggies.

I can’t wait to get out of Tennessee! I was born here,grew up here. It’s changed beyond recognition.You may love it here, as you have no memory of how it used to be and how all the Yankees and Left Coasters have ruined our once friendly and polite towns.

There are beaucoup videos on You Tube about Californians moving here. It really is a thing.

If you have any questions, let me know! I’ll do my best to answer any you may have.

I am one of those who moved to TN from California just 6 months ago. I refer to myself as a refugee when asked where I came from, and ask that it not be held against me.

I agree that TN is vastly different than when you were growing up. The whole country is different. Areas like Nashville, Knoxville, and to a lesser extent Chattanooga where people are flocking to most defiantly have a greater chance of turning to shit. The old rule applies: More people, more crazy.
