‘What Austin felt like 10 years ago’: Is Nashville the next hot spot in the Bay Area exodus?
SFGATE ^ | 12/15/2021 | Tessa McLean

Owning a home had never been something Kristopher Esqueda even thought about. He was a successful restaurateur in San Francisco, helping to open many popular restaurants such as Saison and Sons and Daughters, and every month he turned in a $3,500 rent check for a two-bedroom apartment in the Tenderloin. One day after visiting a friend in Nashville who had moved there from the Bay Area, Esqueda left his apartment, stepping over hypodermic needles and feces on his way to work and started to wonder whether his time in the city was up.

The leftists polluted and destroyed their cities and now that they’ve consumed them up they want to live elsewhere and do it again.

Cities and towns should ban them outright.

They’ll mess up the governorship, the legislature and thus the entire state. Look at Virginia (NOVA) and Illinois (Chicago). Just make them go away!

It’s not just Bay Area residents, either. From January 2018 to June 30, 2021, at least 25 companies relocated their headquarters from California to Tennessee


Ruh roh. Amazon and Oracle building up too. This won’t end well for TN.

Memphis has a street with the tranny flag painted on it. Nothin’ like being proud of removing one’s gonads.

If any of these States wish to remain a State, they should implement a new law requiring `10 years of Full Time Residency to earn the Right to Vote in thier State.

About 15+ years ago, many computer geeks and bosses headed to N. Carolina from the SF Bay area.

Many have stayed and seem to be happy. Some SJW nerds even moved from Austin to N. Carolina.

We will probably see something similar with Cal State Universities away from metro areas like Gay Frisco/SillyCon valley.

They invade and destroy all that’s good. Nashville. Austin (though Austin has been a liberal pit thanks to PBS airing Austin City Limits). Ashville. Sand Point. Bend. Coeur D’Lane. Kalispell. And now they are scooping up everything in the Appalachians. And with the new remote working they still make Silicon Valley Money in a towns that only had a lumber mill and a few restaurants the locals are displaced. BUT SOON. We’ll all be employed by the John Kerry Solar Panel Manufacturing Corporation... That they are building in India.

The people I have known who are leaving California are decent people who can not stand anymore of the liberal politics. Most of them could enrich and add value to the landscape of Nashville. Good does come with the bad.
