Couldn't agree more. I moved thirty miles TOO FAR to the south, and wound up in east Tennessee. Much of that decision was based on the lack of an income tax in Tennessee. That is about to change. If the corrupt politicians (the best special interests can buy) pass an income tax, I'll scoot back over the Virginia border. For some odd reason, the Virginians take more pride in the appearance of their state. The minute you cross the border heading north, the trash disappears. Go figure. More jobs on the Virginia side (but not that many), and the Abingdon area is hard to beat. The Route 58 corridor between Abingdon and Grayson Highlands is gorgeous...highly recommended.
