Thanks for the info. Even with the weather, taxes and drivers as cons, I live in Massachusetts, so it would be nothing but an improvement for me. Retirement can't come fast enough!!
Thanks! Can you do a video in ask the outdoor activities? What is there to do in the mountains? Snowboarding? Is the humidity in the summer make it hard to enjoy the outdoors? What is hunting like in the area?
What about ticks? Do you have to do anything special when going hiking? Last time we were in Tennessee my husband was covered in them (but he went off trail). We are thinking about moving to the mountain city area in the next year.
Hi Tiffany! We're looking to move to the Johnson City area this summer!! So exciting! We have two high school age children who are also swimmers. What area would you recommend?
I've lived in South FL for 40 yrs. I'm getting forced out of my home here with the rising insurance rates as I'm on a fixed income. Thinking about relocating to your area. Been hearing that it's tough to find a place to rent as I want to figure out exactly where I'd like to settle & buy a home. Is this true?
This is a tough one because short term leases are hard to find. And short term stays can get pricey. I'm not aware of any short term temporary living options that are affordable...I can only think of more expensive ones. 😭
@@tiffanywattsrealestateagent This is something I have actually considered but I would say a 1 year lease is that still a "short term"? We were thinking of buying land and then leasing an apartment or home while we wait for the house to be built.
It is nowhere near close enough, and takes about an 1.20 hours to travel between the two. We've built our shtf cabin in Mountain City, and I pray daily that things don't get bad enough for us to have to use it!
Lol coming from growing up in Wisconsin and living in Florida the past 5 years….I think weather wise we will be ok haha. Actually I am very much looking forward to the weather there! I can’t wait! We will be moving this March and maybe looking at Johnson city so thank you so much for this vid! Oh and I am 100% certain that South West Florida has not only the WORST DRIVERS ON THE PLANET but some of the meanest most rude crazy drivers I have ever seen in my life lol! I mean you lived in Florida so you might know exactly what I’m talking about.
I cover east of Knoxville (not in Knoxville...but I've got realtor friends there) to the border. So a big radius around Johnson City (Bristol, Kingsport, Elizabethton, Greeneville, etc.).
Hello Tiffany ,. I am in J. City as I write. It is hard to get a feel of what an area is like. I guess spending time here is best. I am retired and was checking out the area as I have family here. Your videos are really good . Perhaps I may give you a shout sometime .
I've personally not had a bear encounter while hiking...but that's just luck. And as far as seeing them in my yard...that will depend on where people's homes are located. Most of the bears hang near the mountains/highly forester areas. Because I'm like a 25 minute drive to the base of the nearest mountain...I never see any bears near my house.
I didn't see your email or any phone contact info. I'll Google Keller Williams. I'd like to get some information on rental properties. What the Johnsonville area rental market is like if I were to buy some investment properties?

Grew up there, had to leave. The area is absolutely beautiful but the people are so religious it negatively affects eveything from medicine to education to the restaurant choices and jobs available. Not a tolerant area. Too conservative for the average person. Johnson City is better than some of the other towns in the region because it is slightly more secular. But you can do better. If you're randomly picking a palce to live in East Tennesee I recommend Knoxvile. The area doesn't deserve to thrive if it can't welcome all races, genders, orientations, and beliefs. If you're into bigotry and closed mindedness, enjoy! That's my view of the area. Some of the people are lovely and friendly and accepting but they are way out numbered. Live and let live.
I’m Black and was there this past weekend and many people are almost nervous when I was shopping in chains like Marshals or getting something to eat at Cheddar’s…very unfortunate because the area is gorgeous
People say we have a drug problem but the majority of the drug addicts stay home and do their drugs. Criminals don't just run around on the streets here because they will get shot from the citizens.
Do NOT try to move here. There is NOTHING for rent. And I mean nothing. Not a condo, not an apartment, not a house, hell not even a trashy mobile home. ZERO!!!!! Please believe me on this.

Highs in the summer in the mid 80's huh.....Texas, hold my beer and watch this!
Moving tomorrow….seriously. Thanks for the added info.
You're welcome!
Did you move?!
Thanks for the info. Even with the weather, taxes and drivers as cons, I live in Massachusetts, so it would be nothing but an improvement for me. Retirement can't come fast enough!!
You're welcome! Awesome!
Great video’s I used to live in Johnson City in the 70’s . Good hearing all the great updates
Thanks!
JC is like 90 percent old people sadly and their is so many homeless people in downtown along with weekly shootings
Thanks! Can you do a video in ask the outdoor activities? What is there to do in the mountains? Snowboarding? Is the humidity in the summer make it hard to enjoy the outdoors? What is hunting like in the area?
😊 Very good idea!
Thanks Tiffany!
What about ticks? Do you have to do anything special when going hiking? Last time we were in Tennessee my husband was covered in them (but he went off trail). We are thinking about moving to the mountain city area in the next year.
I personally never do anything special...I just make sure to check for them once I'm done hiking.
Respectfully, I'm from Florida and this weather doesn't scare me. Appreciate you putting this video together!
Absolutely!
I love the video, what do you think of, Greeneville TN ,I am thinking about visiting the area in the spring
I personally love Greeneville! Some of the best mountain views around.
Boring, old and a wasteland

Been hearing that it's tough to find a place to rent as I want to figure out exactly where I'd like to settle & buy a home. Is this true?
Yeah, it is tough. But I've seen a few places (apartments) with now leasing signs up.
Cheap places to rent are everywhere! Trust me Iv lived here my whole lifetime. I’ll send you a pic
@@jmille711 hello I'm also interested in apartments in the Johnson City area. Rent that is cheap but not a ghetto apartment
Any thoughts on affordable temporary living options while looking for the right homestead property?
This is a tough one because short term leases are hard to find. And short term stays can get pricey. I'm not aware of any short term temporary living options that are affordable...I can only think of more expensive ones. 😭
@@tiffanywattsrealestateagent Air B&B or travel trailer perhaps?
@@mkshffr4936 I personally would probably do Airbnb if I was in that situation.
Exactly! So many people need this.
@@tiffanywattsrealestateagent This is something I have actually considered but I would say a 1 year lease is that still a "short term"? We were thinking of buying land and then leasing an apartment or home while we wait for the house to be built.
If your drivers are bad ours must be awful, lol. When visited we were saying how much better your drivers are.
Yes, I have definitely visited other places where the drivers are crazy bad. I wouldn't consider ours crazy bad.
Folks having trouble driving on I26. It's very difficult driving in a straight line.
lol on that HWY 98 shoutout! i feel ya on that.
I know right! Lol
All of those things sound great but how are the people and communities? And how are they to new comers? 🤔
People are friendly and welcoming. Not all the people are awesome, of course...but the majority is.😊
@@tiffanywattsrealestateagent thank you for the response and feedback. Much appreciated 🙏☺👍
Absolutely! Just let me know if you have any other questions about the area.😀
@@tiffanywattsrealestateagent yes mam I'll definitely keep you in mind 👍😁
They do not like new people and there is a lot of bigotry.
I would rather have high sales tax than property tax.
I bet you would
I’m interested in Mountain City TN? Is that near Johnson City?
Yeah, its only about 40-45 miles northeast of Johnson City. I cover Mountain City as well!
It is nowhere near close enough, and takes about an 1.20 hours to travel between the two. We've built our shtf cabin in Mountain City, and I pray daily that things don't get bad enough for us to have to use it!

Awesome! We will be happy to have you in the area. Let me know if you need a realtor. :D And yes, I agree about the drivers...Haha.
@@tiffanywattsrealestateagent Thank you! And yes I will that sounds good to me. Are you just in Johnson city?
I cover east of Knoxville (not in Knoxville...but I've got realtor friends there) to the border. So a big radius around Johnson City (Bristol, Kingsport, Elizabethton, Greeneville, etc.).
@@tiffanywattsrealestateagent oh ok perfect! I will keep you in mind then if we are wanting to buy a house on that area.
Thanks!

How much do bears affect your hiking or come into your yard? The internet shows large bear populations in eastern Tennessee.
I've personally not had a bear encounter while hiking...but that's just luck. And as far as seeing them in my yard...that will depend on where people's homes are located. Most of the bears hang near the mountains/highly forester areas. Because I'm like a 25 minute drive to the base of the nearest mountain...I never see any bears near my house.
No bears but plenty of bigots
Can you please do a video of Greeneville,TN
I did! Check out my list of video.

Google would not bring up Keller Williams in Johnsonville Tennessee.
My area is Johnson City.
Thinking of relocating to the Tri-Cities Area, Do you cover outside of The area ?
I cover these counties: Johnson, Sullivan, Carter, Washington, Unicoi, Greene, Hawkins, Hamblen, and most of Cocke. :)
@@tiffanywattsrealestateagent Great ! Thank You ! Right now I’m. Fishing ! Not sure exactly where to look. Plus have to sell up here first. I’m in Pa.

There are a lot of factory jobs! Healthcare jobs are big here too and teaching.

When you have a victim mindset, everyone is the enemy. Life will be hard for both of you.

@@khalilahhill-best1972 it's a horrible area for poc. It's very damaging and traumatizing. POC are neglected, abused and refused in this area.

I personally prefer west of JC, instead of east.

If you like ignorance and are a Christian then you'll love it.
No not 'so what', disappointing flip flop on weather. Make a point and stick with it. D+ Miss Watts.
The drug use in the Tri-Cities area is getting out of control meth is no joke around here
😔
Not exactly unheard of here in Northern Indiana. It seems to be a growing problem in many areas.
@@mkshffr4936 Its a sad problem across the US.
I’ve heard the Roanoke, Virginia area has that problem too.
People say we have a drug problem but the majority of the drug addicts stay home and do their drugs. Criminals don't just run around on the streets here because they will get shot from the citizens.
July high’s mid to high 80’s. 😂😂😂. That’s nothing.
Do NOT try to move here. There is NOTHING for rent. And I mean nothing. Not a condo, not an apartment, not a house, hell not even a trashy mobile home. ZERO!!!!! Please believe me on this.
How come? Is it that much of a small town? I’ve been there before and I wanna move so that’s why I’m asking lol
Is that just Johnson City that has that problem, or does Bristol, Kingsport, and Abingdon have that problem too?
It’s like that in many places in the USA.
Even that same expensive living in North Carolina!!!!
Women would be cold in the desert.
Mid 20s 😂. Try -35 with the windchill. Then boo hoo about mid 20s
Haha, I cannot handle wind when its cold. I'm the one you'll see with three sweaters, gloves, 2 winter coats, and hot hands.🤣
Upon researching I'm finding this place to be safe haven for criminals on the run
You failed to mention the bigotry.
