There was a report just last week that Nashville was the number one city now and we have neighbors moving there in two weeks.

He is part of Nissan Auto that is moving out of CA and to TN. The entire company started moving this year and when school is out in a couple weeks the families are going.

They got a super house and yard for half of cost.

Sadly the only down side we could come up with is they were from New York/New Jersey and are very yankee and in TN, some are still fighting the war of "North American agression" so they might have a problem fitting in but, they will be with all the other employee's they know.

I'm with Nissan in L.A. too, but am not an FTE. So I don't get the moving assistance and can't afford to move with the company. I'll be out of a job soon. :(

I moved to Nashville 8 years ago having lived in southern California, northern Arizona and, most recently, DC. No regrets, in fact, Hubby and I are extremely happy here.

We've had no unpleasantness with the North/South cultural differences. I like the, sadly diminishing, Southerness of the area. There's a sweetness here. The city is vibrant and rich with culture, color and beautiful parks. Minutes from town we have beautful forests, farmland and lakes.

Come visit!

(I'll try to find a link to the recent study ranking Nashville as #1 place to live.)
