Lookout Mountain schools are shite unfortunately. Both in Georgia and Tennessee they only go up to elementary, and those are really nice, but then there is a huge drop off. Apparently they might build a middle/high school for Lookout Mountain, Georgia, but who knows when that'll get done? And then, you don't get all the perks of residence in Tennessee, like no state income tax. Signal Mountain has good schools and cool houses but it's no Lookout Mountain.

I was fortunate enough to live on Lookout for a couple of years, and it was very nice, can't beat the scenic views and outdoor activities. I was scared shitless driving up and down the mountain in extreme fog and snow a few times.

Negatives of Lookout and Chattanooga: it's like living in a big small town, everyone already knows each other and the Southern Baptist influence really made it a lot less 'inviting' and friendly than I was expecting.

I couldn't live on Signal just for the fact that the cops are some of the biggest assholes around, 3-5 mph over and you're getting a ticket, it's ridiculous.

That said I'm actually going back there this week.
