When California native David Klein moved to the quiet city of Gallatin, Tennessee, 25 years ago, he did so to escape the chaos of West Coast urbanization.
Now, he says, it feels like it is 'chasing' him.
Since the pandemic, an influx of outsiders from the Golden State and elsewhere have turned a once tranquil community into an overcrowded 'hell'.

When that generation passed, their children sold their properties and the Europeanization of "South Beach" began. Miami became an open-air nightclub for the rich and famous of Europe and South America.
Now, the current generation of New York Jews has moved north to Boca Raton where they are snow-birding in the country clubs between S Military Trail and the Florida Turnpike.

“Californians, New Yorkers, and New Englanders are locusts. They ruin their home states then move on to virgin territory. I do not understand how these internal migrants bring their political ideology that caused them to flee their home states.”

Jobs and people in the US are still very mobile. Moving to follow your work is a common theme through the history of our nation.
The states and people receiving the inflow of these people just love getting higher prices for their own real estate, and they love the money those people bring into the economy. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that the newcomers won’t share all the history and beliefs of long time residents.

“UH..THEY ARE moving south!”
Yes, but they are not forcing people to sell their property.
Exactly.
No one is forced to sell unless eminent domain is used.
There were other ways to handle this rather than under the cover of darkness (ie. lockdowns). The private property owner entity cannot just do whatever it wants. There are restrictions with building codes, etc.
People can work together. No need to ruffle the town’s people’s feathers unnecessarily. We need infrastructure so we can help accommodate what the land usage looks like.
The hatred for the former Confederates is evidence of the attitudes that are being brought into the Southern states. One has only have to look at how monuments and street names are being destroyed or changed to see the results of their presence.
That happened near me when a developer bought a huge parcel of land to build a data warehouse. They promised a park across the street from the neighborhood that was there. They did build a lovely park with a walking trail and sprinkled fitness areas along the trail, plus covered picnic benches. Of course, then they built a tall, spiked fence around it so no one from the community can access it. As a result, it is never used.
“People can work together. No need to ruffle the town’s people’s feathers unnecessarily.”
If the people do not want their feathers ruffled, then buy the land and keep it undeveloped.
Because in their minds relative to their former liberal homes, they consider themselves conservative. However, that brand of conservatism is completely out of phase with the conservatism of their new abodes. As conservative as they think they are, they’re clueless as to the subliminal liberalism they were exposed to.
The nephew (out of state) was approached by the developer before the town had any clue what was going on. During lockdowns. Under cover of darkness. You should see the rat hole housing this developer has built in other communities. We are trying to make things not so horrible here.
Go bark up another tree.
I live in ground zero for this migration in Williamson county tn
Nearly all are right leaning at a minimum
The libs who move to Nashville mostly youngsters go to bohemian East Nashville usually

Conservatism and Populism have never been the same thing, although many continue to confuse them.
The area my wife lived in before we married was almost a carbon copy. New schools....and school lockdowns the first week it was opened. Then there’s the new residents complaining that they’re being poisoned by the farmers crop dusting adjacent fields and wanting .gov to put a stop to it.......
Where I live, I absolutely don’t miss my days on the board of aldermen and the 2:00 a.m. phone calls demanding that I do something about the skunk, or deer or feral pig that’s in their front yard.
They are forcing them to sell their property. The owners of existing properties can't afford the increase in tax assessments caused by what their new neighbors are doing to their properties. See Post 14.
South Florida was settled mostly early pre Matzo invasion by southerners who called it MyAmUh
Spanish
Seminoles
Rebs
Jews
Caribbean Spanish
Marielitos
Every Latin American nation
Quebec
Posh Euro Trash
Reverse Hollywood to Miami
That’s pretty much the stages past 120 years

“Almost all new residents came to be Republicans”
That seems to be the case with those coming in to our area of TN. First you experience terror when seeing people moving in with NY or CA license plates. Once you get to know them, they’ve pretty much always proven to be conservative. Escaped to TN like we did. At least, that’s been our experience.
That's how I felt in Arizona when the riots, fires, earthquakes, and mudslides drove a locus plague of Californians here. One day at the supermarket I looked around at the other shoppers and thought, in horror: Oh no, they've found me.
Ya mean southerners can't afford the taxes because southerners are selling homes to Californians at inflated prices?
Bewhahahahaha...
