re: What city in the United States is the best place to live?

quote:

---

Chattanooga, Tennessee
-LOW COL
-Beautiful scenery that allows for outdoor activity
-no state income tax (huge one for me)
-within driving distance to family here in La, the gulf coast, the Atlantic coast, Asheville, Atlanta, Nashville, etc
-rapidly growing, diverse economy
-big but not huge town. Still feels small.

Hey man, leave our fat black people outta this.

Chattanooga is routinely in the top 10 for fattest and unhealthiest cities which blows my mind considering the vast amount of outdoor activities around here. It does get very rural very fast once you leave the city, and all the Rwal Tides love moon pies and Sun Drop.
