- Now almost 2 years into Tennessee, the reasons we moved out of California and settled in Tennessee, are now more apparent than ever. We can confidently say, we made the right choice and have never looked back. We have embraced East Tennessee and look forward to giving ourselves back to this awesome state!
Thank you for watching and subscribing. We appreciate every one of y'all watching and hope watching Californians get settled in Tennessee is semi-entertaining.

I live in middle Tn, I love how u appreciate and love the state. Welcome to anyone who will love it as much as we do. Thank you peace ✌️
🔴San Diego here. Thank you for saying that! Research is showing that the majority of Californians leaving the state are not liberal or progressive, but people who love America and value the important things in life.
@@tallgirlhappyme I know that. I understand Tennessee folks here and why they continually say this. We left Illinois 4 years ago for the same reasons your looking for a better quality of life.my husband and I were lifetime Illinois residents and we were sad to see what happened to it. I know people from California feel the same. We love it here. I feel like we should welcome you all because u only want the same! May God be with you in your life journey! Here’s to a better life!!
@JW I’m a middle Tennessee native as well
@@ryanjsgrandma2009 here's the thing ALOT of people moving here are not conservative. You can take a look at local elections and you can see what is happening. I totally understand WHY Tennesseans are concerned.
I live in east TN
Whatever state you’re coming from, remember why your leaving that state, and more importantly, the politicians that turned your former state into a state so unbearable, that you were forced to leave. Help keep those politics and politicians out of Tennessee. Keep Tennessee free!
Sorry but u are cute
@@BennyJune-y2r bravo!
"CA is a dumpster fire." 100% accurate.
Yes, ready to move back to the midwest.
Why?
California has it’s problems, like any state, I still love California but I live in a nice area of Southern California.
My sister just moved to TN. I’m trying to find the appeal.
@@NotJessH it's a laid back way of life, out of the "fast lane".
@@lolasierra8239 My husband and I run a small 10 acre avocado and citrus farm and train horses. We’re pretty far away from the fast lane but I know what you’re saying.
I was visiting my mom the other day, she lives 20 minutes away, she ran into an old neighbor who asked her if she still lived “in her little house” in a snide way. Some people have no class.
Love your videos! We live in California and are conservative. It’s not easy living here with people who don’t agree with our family values. We have many friends who moved to Tennessee and absolutely love it! My husband has a few more years till he retires from law enforcement. It’s a bad time to be in law enforcement especially here in Cali. We hope we join you all in the near future. God Bless you all 🇺🇸❤️
Maybe cops shouldn't protect all the cops who are horrible people.
Washington county Tennessee is hiring deputies 😊
I currently live in California, my aunt and cousins moved to Tennessee because of how this state is ran. It’s such a mess here and difficult to feel safe anywhere. They’re encouraging me and my fiancé once married to make the move to Tennessee. I can’t wait to visit and meet neighbors who are friendly, and supportive of all individuals who come to be a part of the culture of TN.
If you are a conservative family, you'll fit in just fine here. Welcome home!
Come to Tennessee! We're playing your song! God Bless you and may God Protect your sweet husband, keeping him and his comrades safe from the snares of evil in California.
Please get here as soon as you can, okay?? Again, GOD BLESS!
As a born an bred person who bleeds orange, I appreciate how you spoke of TN. The only issue I've had with ppl moving over here is when one claims they want the country lifestyle the country views, only to destroy that environment with development, that takes away from that country life. It's paining to know the wildlife animals are being ran out of their homes for that very reason.
You to
It is doing the same here in Florida. It has doubled or tripled rents as well.
amen - yeah they want the facade of rural living but don't want to deal with the inconveniences that come with true rural living. Same thing here in the Texas hill country. I absolutely don't recognize it anymore and there is no signs of it stopping anytime soon. I blame the developers and local govt for allowing this to happen in these areas more than I do the people that move there. They would not move there weren't all of the conveniencies
South Carolina as well. The people here are horrible.
@@CO-kh5bg100%. I moving out after being in FL for 20 years . We can just visit.
Big reasons I'm leaving is Gavin Newsom, high taxes, and the people.
Us too!
I think you have many agreeing
Me too
Yep! Here too! Time to leave the land of the liberals.
Keep the Democrat ways behind you
I think you are saying you like.......F R E E D O M! FAITH, FAMILY, GOD AND COUNTRY! God Bless.
And sadly we don’t have these things anymore in California...
Amen
Hopefully California doesn’t come here and change it
@@deborahryan2654 Same in NJ. It sucks!
Yep FREEDOM
Not hiding behind our keyboards. Just fair warning to assimilate and remember why you’re escaping where you came from. Other than that, glad to have you.
Why should he assimilate? This is a free country. He is allowed to be different. You want that then move to North Korea.
Yep, but he sounds like his heart is in the right place....but like we say in Texas, "Don't California my Texas!" ...
@@PatriotAcresinTexas exactly!
"Not hiding behind a keyboard "...as a chad or Karen hides behind keyboard...then walk up to his face and tell him to assimilate...tough guy...
@@bornfuct Wherever you are from please stay there. If you don't like it here the way it is then don't come. We don't want to change.
You literally just perfectly stated why people dread Californians moving into their area. All we ask is to remember why you left. So that we don't repeat those mistakes. Most Americans just want to provide a good life for their loved ones and be left to do so.
Only the women get in your face with this ultimatum. Guys are cooler about Ca. transplants. We know why we left. Stop being so scared. Woman!
People should be grateful for the Californians moving here. Now Tennessee will have kind and attractive people and good food
@@jordyjord1519 thats your opinion the south has never been known for having horrible food. Maybe unhealthy but not bad tasting. Ntm if we wanted to be like California we'd move there. I'll never understand why people leave states go to another just to complain it isn't like the state they left. Add to the scene fine but don't try to takeover and make it cali light with a shot of southern comfort kay thanks
@@brittywren2877 Dude why do you think Californians are moving here?! It’s obviously for the politics. I can’t understand why Tennesseans are being so unwelcoming to like minded people. We’re all Americans and most of the Californians your getting are coming for a reason… and that reason isn’t the bland food. In my eyes you guys are being just as ungrateful as you say we are Kay thanks! 👋
@@jordyjord1519 lmao I am not ungrateful for people that don't want to completely change our way of life lol. I am grateful for variety of thought and inclusiveness of all perspectives. I am not ungrateful for any single soul moving from any state wanting to merely add to the already abundant activities we have here in my state. All I stated was I didn't want anyone to come in and completely change our ways. That doesn't include any backwards notions that actually need changing btw. That also doesn't in any single way make me ungrateful for people now living or moving into my area to enjoy what we have to offer. I've met many fine Californians that now call themselves Okies. I do believe you are projecting how maybe someone has made you or others feel idk. But I personally only stated what I stated. Adding to it based on your perspective doesn't make it my own.
Coming from a native Tennessean, thank you for your kind words about Tennessee and reasons you like living here compared to your previous residence. I’m really glad that moving here brought you and your family some joy and happiness. Welcome to the family of Tennessee❤️
Have you noticed the 3 day weather rule yet? You can get all 4 seasons in just 3 days in Tennessee lol
amen in my car trunk are rain coat, snow boots, a bathing suit and a light jacket. you never know lol
I live in louisville
Take a nap it will change
That's just living in the South...
I have seen al four seasons in 1 day. Starting out cold and snowy and then by late afternoon- no snow, sunny weather and shorts and flip flops and I have seen it the other way around- starting out warm and by evening snow- usually the snow doesn't stick when it happens this way.
Humidity in Tennessee? "Laughs in Floridian..."
Yeah........it is no way comparable, that's why I always stress to people it isn't what you think when you hear the "humid South"
Humidity in Florida? Laughs in Qatari.
@@grantarnold2606 have you been to Florida?
@@larrym.johnson9219 I lived there
@@grantarnold2606 I am living there( here... Florida Right now).
Welcome to the south buddy! I love the fact you came here and don’t complain about the culture.
Appreciate it!
Please don't bring Socialist ideology with you like many not all that come here.(Hey. great if your not), this is a Red State, We enjoy our freedoms here, help keep it it that way.
Who in their right mind would complain about the culture? I retired from the Military so I met plenty of folks from the South. Where I grew up in Oregon is about as close to Appalachia as you'll find on the West Coast. I always got along will with guys from the South and Upstate New Yorkers of all people. We all grew up fishing, hunting, eating good food, with tight families and communities.
I didn't see where he complained about the culture. 🤔
@@darrenjones2933 I’m from Florida and I’ve been to upstate NY and it was way different from the city. Very friendly people and beautiful mountains.
Just don't bring California politics and you can continue loving this state.
You’re not the king of USA.
I just don’t go there because I don’t like racism.
But if I did
I would bring my Democrat politics right with me
@@og-greenmachine8623 racism is every where! There's nothing you can do, nothing the stupid politicians (republicans and demonrats) can do about it, there's nothing the main stream Media can do about it, there's nothing the social media giants can do about it! The only thing you can do, is to Move On!
@@NoamTheGOAT50
They created it.
They need the racism..
It’s a business tool for them.
@@og-greenmachine8623 Unfortunately for you, you are not royalty either, no matter where you are from. There is no racism here unless folks like you bring it with you. If you are so blind that you don't see what Democrat ran states and cities are and why they fail, we don't really want you here anyway.
@Marius Raaths
Ok.
Troglodytic and childish
but I imagine there was some humor in there.
BUT IF YOU YANKEES WANT TO MOVE HERE TO TENNESSEE, THEN I SAY "WELCOME" WE ARE A VERY FRIENDLY, AND LOVING SOUTHERN PEOPLE. JUST PLEASE RESPECT OUR SOUTHERN TRADITIONS AND WAY OF LIFE. WE TAKE THEM VERY SERIOUS. WE ARE TRUE SOUTHERNERS!
amen
Lol I'm from N. Y. and I don't have to think I'm better than you or my rural life is more loving than yours.
@Kimberly Notch God bless you ! New York and Cali refugees are flooding the South and a big problem is that many are bringing with them the politics and kind of thinking that created the problems that they are fleeing. ✌️
Please specify what southern traditions and way of life you are talking about. What is a "true southerner" in the USA today? Everywhere in the USA today, there are a lot of people formerly from somewhere else. Your "way of life" is not under your control, you can only control yourself.
@@chrysr7773 these points could be argued until we're blue in the face, however once upon a time many Southerners did indeed have their own culture, and some still do, and no it wasn't just racism.
Of course there's our accent, and there's variations of our accents depending on the region, we had our own taboos and "southern manners" thing going on, and what northerners call "soul food" is/was simply food to us, its just what we eat.. And back in the day religion was taken way more seriously in parts of the south (hence, "the bible belt ") and there was a church on pretty much every other block, but of course this varied I suppose. I remember when I was little it was still shameful (and mostly unheard of) to have multiple "baby daddy", to be drunks, etc., and most everyone in an area knew everyone else. And in the more rural areas people would (and some still occasionally do) even wave at you as pass each other on the road in cars lol (the "southern hospitality" thing, again), etc.
Time just flowed differently for us.
I remember this very well when I was a small child (I'm in my early forties now).
And contrary to popular belief there's tons of black people in the South and for the most part we've gotten along just fine for a long time now, at least where I've lived.
Also, black Southerners have their own variations of culture as well.
When I was a youth and visited up north the differences in our cultures were obvious.
But of course white Southerners are the only people for whom it's PC to make fun of, so we catch all the hell.
But the South was much more than racism.
By the way, to the haters, I don't give two fks what you think about us.
✌️to everyone.
P.S of course it could be different for different Southerners from different places and different situations, I'm just speaking from my personal point of view.
And when we ask you to respect the way that we live, just asking you to leave behind the politics and thinking that destroyed the places from which your fleeing.
I’m not going to give away where you guys live in Tennessee, all is can say is I’m in Middle Tennessee, and your East of me. I’ll just say that the town you live in has an excellent college and loves Jesus!
#GrannyAlwaysSaidTennesseeIsGodsCountry
Definitely God's Country 🙌🏻
I know where too because I live here and demographics are definitely changing! People need to be aware of the Blue wave trying to change this part of East TN.
@@HandcraftedintheFoothills wait........one the reasons I'm finally leaving Kalifornia is the overwhelming blueness and morality. Is north east TN turning?
@@larrywebster2126 Ive lived in middle ten all my life and I do notice more blue values coming in especially towards the east, there’s a rise in need for housing in Tennessee and I’ve met people from everywhere, especially the city I lived in (Antioch) was very diverse but overall I would say it’s still a conservative state In my opinion.
@@larrywebster2126 its 30% Blue in Blount County and not that long ago it was 10% There is a very vocal group here trying to change it even more blue and if the conservatives here don't wake up soon and get involved it will happen.
I left california 14 years ago and now I live in GEORGIA!! I never looked back!! I love where im at now!!!
I lived in Atlanta from 189 to 1995 and loved it. I had two small kids and could not afford it. Moved to Kentucky in 95. I prefer GA weather for sure.I don’t like snow. Maybe a inch once a year but that all. TN nice to. I live close to TN border now
Sad the people in Georgia voted for folks that care more about illegals than Americans and voted Demorat, The people of Georgia could of stopped this Obiden mess but now it is to late.
@@jaysmith179 I don't think they could have, the democrats where gonna win no matter what by any means necessary including cheating
Tennessee is my home and I love it. So glad you came and are embracing our culture. Tennessee will be good to you if you are good to her. We don't want to change!! We want to protect our heritage. Share it with our children's children. Appreciate your video so much. Blessings to you and your family from West TN
Well said!

@@frosting_on_the_side nope, still stuck in Commufornia. Careers is the thing holding us back but we are actively researching places. I don’t see myself here in two years.

I've lived in Tennessee for 60 years and love it. We beleave in God and our guns.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Don't California my Tennessee.
@@gretch4206 Being from California and looking to move out of state, the perception that Californians will contaminate the areas we choose to move to has been an unexpected bummer in choosing to leave. We are good people who look out for our neighbors, volunteer at our church and work hard at our jobs so the assumptions about us based on a generalization are hard to overcome. I promise that if we moved into your neighborhood as your new next door neighbors, you would have new friends in us and my husband knows how to smoke a mean brisket. ❤
Exactly why I moved here from Maine! Get in where you fit in. I found a place with my values, and the people here have exceeded my expectations. I love connecting with me neighbors about what we think is the right direction for the community and country.
We love our state and we have noticed a lot of people from New England and California move in. These states have strict gun laws and stay blue every election. We are the opposite of that and we are proud of it. Voting blue destroyed your state and strict gun laws made citizens unable to defend themselves. I am proud to say we have not made the liberal mistake. # let's go brandon
Thank you for accepting and respecting our culture and values!
🧡🧡🧡
@Madeline Montgomery interesting
😲😲😲 I have friends that relocated from New York and this is not their experience at all. They have nothing but great things to say about Tennessee. But they're Christians....
Tennessee has a large Christian population. The more professing "Christians" there are in an area, the more likely it is that there are genuine born again Christians there. What that produces is God's blessings and people filled with the Holy Spirit.
Matthew 5:16 - Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
Just leave your California policies in California. just remember you’re in the Bible Belt.
💕💕💕💕💕
yea how is that working out? Pastors throwing people out for not wearing masks, HOW CHRISTIAN! NOT
Hopefully they are. I'm planning on moving out of Commie California in the next year. I am leaving because of BS politics and high cost of living. I think most people are fleeing CA due to politics. And yes, people are leaving for more conservative ideals.
Left California 20 years ago for Tennessee, best move we ever made... Never looked back.
Living in Alabama for years, but Seriously wanting to move to east Tennessee. As someone who grew up living in So Cal back in 1981-94 when Cali was cool to live there. When people back east would ask what So Cal was like, there was a lot of pressure to impress others. Brands, style, what you own. I saw the early signs of every problem they have now, overpopulation, pollution, drought, crime, Democrats from everywhere moving in. Hope TN doesn't suffer the same fate.
Hello ex-Californians. I just nod my head and laugh at the same experiences you all have had living in California. Especially SOUTHERN California. Can't spark on northern Cali. Can't believe how much exodus from California the past 20 yrs. Lived in Alabama since '96 but seriously wanting to move to east Tennessee. I love mountain towns. As someone who was born in Akron, Ohio and still considers myself Buckeye Red. Still have the accent. I grew up living in Rancho Cucamonga, Cal back in 1981-94 when Cali was still cool to live there. Everyone wanted to live in Cali. When people back east would ask what So Cal was like, there was a lot of pressure to impress others. Brands, style, what you own. I saw the early signs of every problem they have now, overpopulation, pollution, drought, higher crime, liberals indoctrination in high school, Democrats from everywhere moving in. Reagan was prez. Too young to understand what that meant to USA. Conservatism was to be proud of. Hope TN doesn't suffer the same fate.
@@caramel7123 We left Nor Cal Redding. Used to be one of the last good places in Cali. Just visited. What dump. So depressing. $7 gas. Wished we left 10 years earlier for Florida.
Welcome to Tennessee just don't California our Tennessee!
My girlfriend and I have lived in California our whole life, just this last may we went to Nashville. Both fell In love with how welcoming people were with us. Your “tunnel vision” remark was a huge eye opener. The both of us have zero friends left anymore here anymore. Everyone is so self centered and only care about them selves. God bless you man for this video. Plan on our big move by this October. We couldn’t be happier! Would love to reach out and ask you more questions!!

Good to see you again!Born, raised, and lived here my whole life. Never thought I would want to leave. Doing another scouting trip to TN in the fall. Have to get out of here. California is depressing.
Get out before they build a wall around CA and lock you in. Quarinteen State. Really hurry up and come on over to our side.👍

Moved to Knox County in June of 2019 from another dumpster fire called Illinois. All you said is correct. My biggest happy surprise is the lack of negativity of the Tennesseans. In Illinois everyone feels trapped and they have become excessively cynical.

As a Tennessean who moved to Indiana and then moved back. I can 2nd that as far as the cynicalism. It's just a different atmosphere down here.
Most Appalachians, but especially NE Tennesseeans, have a very deep, but quiet relationship with God and Nature....Most NE Tennesseeans grew up farming, near farms, in churches or near churches, on/in the river or near the river...
We have confronted the environment, the Laws of Man, the spiritual, the supernatural, as in our dreams and as in a part of our souls...We reject the totalitarian powers of Washington, D.C. and beyond...
WE embrace the damn-near Libertarian ideals of Emancipating other Human Beings from bondage, taxation-as-theft, and we love the HELL out of our GUNS.
Jonesborough, TN printed the "Abolitionist Papers" for God's sake.
As the people of the 423, we deeply respect the Acts of Charity, Kindness, brutal open honesty, observing cleanliness, and being very kind to other human beings and animals....we're the polite "Japan of the South"...hahaha, my Japanese teacher said that once.

Welcome to Tennessee!
Thank you!
My husband and I too left California 9 months ago for the same reasons many of you have listed. We retired and sold our home to buy an RV. Since then we have visited many states and the state we both fell in love with was Tennessee. The culture, the freedom, the lack of the need for glutinous possessions felt liberating. Although we will continue to travel and stay on the road, we hope to someday buy land in Tennessee and live as Americans were meant to live. Free!!!

I moved to Tennessee in 1973 from Illinois and that was 48 years ago..I love it here
We’re think of moving there from Wisconsin
I am so ready to cut California loose and head there, pal. I just got to get my son through his trade school, employed and off on his own path. After that, its retirement time and the moving van is on its way. Don't worry Tennesseans, I plan to blend in so nice you'll think I'm a local yokel.
🤣🤣🤣 Local Yokel
We moved here 3 years ago! Moving was expensive coming from California. Now there is a waiting list to get out! But come on out here it’s a much better way of life. You won’t regret it. Take care and good luck!
@@shajucoconnelly865 Thank you. I plan to travel as light as possible and pretty much start fresh in Eastern Tennessee. As Hoag likes to say "get rid of the junk you don't need". I'm planning to put that to heart.
When he finishes his school bring him with you, we need tradesmen here and they are not looked down upon. We like hard working people here.
@@jeffsullivan3101 His trade school usually has employers lined up for the top 10% of the class (which Jeff is in) so it really depends on where they are located. He's been talking about heading north to Alaska, Montana, or the Dakotas. I think he has a thing for cold. But we'll see in September. Thanks for thinking of him.
As a Tennessean who owes a "Dont California my Tennessee "shirt i just hope those who come have your attitude on things
Many of us have been praying, fighting the bizarreness of California for many years. People are tired of it.
My thoughts exactly... Kinda like the way things are here... Don't need fixin cause we ain't broke.
I pray for TN. They have RUINED AZ.
Would love to know more about parts of Tennessee. How does anyone know which parts are good, safe or for us????
Where is this beautiful property? I need to be in that area!
Hello and welcome to Blount County. (My wife and I also live in Blount but on the opposite side of Maryville from you.) I stumbled upon your TH-cam channel last weekend and soon found myself missing a few hours.
I want to compliment you on your well done videos. As someone who has lived in the area for nearly 65 years, I found your videos to be a great reminder as to why we ‘old timers’ shouldn’t take for granted what we enjoy here everyday. We hope you and your family continue to enjoy your transformation into Tennesseans.
That is awesome and that means a lot to us, really appreciate that!
Hello from Sweetwater
Ive got family in Maryville. Im from Baltimore. Im moving down there when I save up enough $$$. Hope to meet ya when I get down there.
Hello from Jeff County
I really love when you said "we need to get back to a place where we can have a difference of opinion and disagreements" THANK YOU!
In Tennessee, you can disagree with someone and still be friends. It's one of our best qualities. I'mma say, "Bless 'is heart, daggone fool" and just move on, praying that you will do research and come around to my opinion...I ain't got to CANCEL you for having your own thoughts....that's a fascist, WOKE, SJW thing. Most of us ain't like that.
Welcome to the South.. Thank you for respecting it and the people too!

Moved from the Bay Area to just south of Chattanooga. I LOVE IT HERE & NEVER LOOKED BACK! The best thing about this part of the country is the people. 99% absolute sweethearts! I can't thank them enough 🥰💖🤗
So true!!
I work in Chattanooga but live in north Ga.
I am thinking to move to this part of tenessee as there is no snow.
Living in Alabama for years, but Seriously wanting to move to east Tennessee. I love mountain towns. As someone who grew up living in So Cal back in 1981-94 when Cali was cool to live there. Everyone wanted to live in Cali. When people back east would ask what So Cal was like, there was a lot of pressure to impress others. Brands, style, what you own. I saw the early signs of every problem they have now, overpopulation, pollution, drought, higher crime, Democrats from everywhere moving in. Reagan was prez. Too young to understand what that meant to USA Conservatism was to be proud of. Hope TN doesn't suffer the same fate.
I can’t WAIT to leave California and I was born and raised here. It’s so divisive and I am so tired to being told what to do, where to go, how to think or I’m a bad person. Sad because it used to be great. Time for a new adventure!💕✨

My reasons for leaving CA as a native: High crime, high cost of living, horrible politics with socialist government cheese programs at our expense, no sense of community, 2nd amendment not recognized, horrible schools, hivemind mentality. What I miss: The great food from produce, meat and restaurants, Yosemite, the coast and ocean, wine country, Tahoe, skiing, the delta fishing and family and friends. Would I return to live in CA? Never!
Those are the common sentiments
You could vacation in CA!
I have visited CA many times both for pleasure and for work and I have to agree with you, what a beautiful state. It's such a shame that it has been ruined by a socialist government and high profile talking heads that are so disconnected with the rest of the decent hard working Californians.
@@jeffsullivan3101 Well said, and hopefully those that come from Blue States will help keep this a Red State, that's why it is the great State of Tennessee.
Awesome 🙋🙋🙏🙏🙏💕💕👍👍
I'm still waiting on God to move me there.
You'll know when it's time 🙏🏻
Pack up and move, or it'll never happen
@@jimbeam9176 I'm so tired of people saying ignorant crap like that. God has to provide the money and the right open doors to people and places. smh
@@Stall-FedCalves not trying to be ignorant about it, but its true.. a move like that just takes someone to say fuck it I'm doing it.. or if your lucky enough you find a job offer there.. I was in that position once, and if I didnt just say fuck it I'm moving it would of never happened most likely.. 25+ years later I'm so glide I did it.. I mean yes if you have kids that changes everything but I guess I dont know your story
@April Denise Stefco God is waiting on you to take action and move
I'm a new Tennessean. .Moved out of the Seattle sewer last summer. I love this state..I moved to the Johnson City area. I'm an American, not a leftist globalist wacko! This state is awesome
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
We are also in the Johnson City area. Moved from California for all the same reasons. Absolutely love it here!!!
Hi I live in Kingsport!
@@pamhill222 how is life up the road?
Welcome HOME😉
So true the values have been lost in California's we have been thinking of moving because I want my family not to forget how important values are. With God's help I pray we get to find a new place to call home
Come to Tennessee. No income tax, low property taxes, and affordable housing. You can buy acres here very reasonably priced.
God's people have to live together to keep the state from becoming morally corrupt. Stay blessed sister 🙏❤

My family and I are debating whether to move to Tennessee from California, my dad is watching so many videos and he is already in LOVE, we are going to visit his cousin that lives in Tennessee in 2 weeks to see if it’s a done deal. We’re tired of living in California, I am born and raised here and I am so done with this trashy state.
So did you guys leave?? This comment was 1 yr ago, curious. I’m now watching videos to get the heck out of CA by 2024
Me too. Where are you?
@@andreafelton689 Riverside. You?
Fellow Californian here. We also moved to the Friendsville area and agree 100%. We will never move back. BTW there is a Del Taco just over the boarder in Georgia.
Yes. Theres one in Dalton, Ga. Calhoun, Ga. Thats all I can think of right now. That being said... I feel like they dont taste the same as they do when I visit the west coast. Idk
@@SC68170 There is one in Fort Oglethorpe as well.
Whhhhaaatttttt???? In Friendsville? We need to meet up!
I love friendship tn. I am from union city
@@Hoagmatthew Im in Friendsville
My wife and I moved to North Carolina in December 2020 and we love it. We talked it over before we came and agreed that we were going to assimilate into the local culture. Yes, southern hospitality is a real thing. We learned to be patient, learned that people do appreciate it when you hold the door open for them as opposed to being sneered at in California, learned that disagreements about who has the best bbq is a serious matter, looking forward to watching our Single A baseball team this spring and loving each day for what it brings us.
I concur 🙌🏻 I moved from CA to TN, with my teenager, 2.5 years ago. I DO NOT miss CA at all!! I am happy and proud to be a Tennessean ♥️♥️

I welcome every single Californian with open arms to this beautiful place. You will become family. Just please remember why you are fleeing your state and how it made you feel when it started to change for the worst. I think the remedy for the tragedy of Cali is people moving to new places like TN and learning a new happy way of life. I would be lying if it didn't scare us a little at first but but I have faith in our culture, beliefs, and way that has the power to really give people what their true heart desires instead of just filling the hole in their soul temporarily. It makes me smile to see a Californian get here and start understanding how we live, love and the happiness it can bring them. Please come visit us in the smoky mountains soon. It will absolutely take your breath away!
We didn't change anything. Our government changed everything to suit them
Long as they don’t start Turing it blue
So you want to welcome in people who will eventually destroy your beautiful state? That doesn't sound very wise to me. Good luck to you when it turns into California 2.0.
@@gokusaiyan252 Someone voted those people in office and continue to do so over & over. Just saying.
@@tennesseetexan1957 you're right and now they're running the whole country
Please, Welcome to Tennessee, We just ask one thing from you. Remember why you left Cali and do not vote blue here. We are conservative here. We like our low taxes and better way of life.
Yes!!!
it's not a matter of voting red or blue it's voting in the right people.. there's a spectrum.
@@mr.OldNews your exactly the type of people were talking about
@@tejeda7324 not sure what you mean by that, lol
Just found your channel and subbed. I have lived in East TN almost 80 years, love it wouldn't change a thing! Blessings
I appreciate that and love that you reached out, thank you! 🙏🏻
Thank you for your videos. Have really enjoyed watching them. As a life-long Tennessean, glad it is going well for your family. Make your roots grow deep and help make Tennessee a better place to live. Thanks again.
My fiancé and I also moved from the west coast to TN. We’ve been here almost a year now. We love it and that’s been during Covid. I can only imagine what more adventures we will have outside of that.
Where did you move to in TN?
My husband and I are in Seattle WA now but talking about a move to TN! He’s from FL and I’m from Illinois
Sounds like he might be close to knowing the whole truth, and it will set him free! The South has a way of offering that. ;-) Godspeed, and grace to you, Hoag!
Hey, I was born in TN don't let everybody know we have it good here before it becomes overcrowded like California
We are boycotting Nike. I love my Timberlands. Live near Chattanooga.
I like the way you slipped the " y'all " in there. Good too see you back.
It happens, it slowly becoming a part of me 🙌🏻
Right! I laughed too!!!
Moved from Wa state 4 yrs ago to Tennessee ♥️🦋♥️ I thank Jesus so much for that change!!! Much respect and honor to the Tennessee people!!!
Glad to have you and your energy/happiness, Kim! WELCOME HOME!!
I closed my eyes and you sounded like Matthew McConaughey. Welcome to Tennessee! “Three white stars on a field of blue. God keep them strong and ever true. It is with pride and love that we Salute the Flag of Tennessee!”
My wife is from Tennessee and her family lives there. I love visiting during the holidays but going home is hard because I love Tennessee and the people are great. When I retire we are planning on moving to East Tennessee.
That is awesome!
I'm a former Angelino....but Tennessee is awesome. People are VERY nice. Meeting too many Californians tho in Nashville lately. Ohhhhh I MISS DEL TACO YOUR SHIRT!!!😃😃😃 We that have moved here should respect this state...not bring our propogandas
Love me some Del Taco!
Thank you for knowing that we welcome anyone.We just want to keep our cherished way of life.I love yalls channel.
California may be bad but New York is trying hard to catch up. We literally have a governor who doesn't care if you live or die, just pay your taxes. I grew up in North Carolina and Georgia and can't wait to get back down there and start living again.
Get out of New York . I left after 22 years. Thank god I did. New York City is a dump
@@emermbiemer302 looks like that is going to happen sooner rather than later. Cheers.
North Carolinians don't want any more New Yorkers. You have made us the new Florida. Go back. :)
I'm not American. Was in Tennessee for a vacation and immediately fell in love with the state and with the great nation. I hope you keep making these videos, capturing the natural beauty of the United States..also, 4k videos would be a great treat for the eyes :)
I escaped San Diego two and a half years ago and I moved to Hampton Tennessee and I've loved every single moment of it I don't think I can have a better life than I have right now a great job great people great town there's not one single thing that I can complain about the weather is wonderful all four seasons low prices everything and I can guarantee you I will never ever go back to that gruesome Newsom hellhole of a state thank you Tennessee I love it here and everything about it !!!!!!

We moved from CA to middle TN about 1.5 years ago. This video is spot on!! We moved for many of the same reasons and we have no desire to head back to CA any time soon.
Born and raised here in middle Tennessee myself and I’ve Traveled all over the United States and I can’t see myself living anywhere else but here.
Screw you. Get out of my state

🔴San Diego here. Thank you for doing this video! If you are so inclined, *would love a video on best (or suggested) places to consider when moving to Tennessee.* So happy to hear you are loving Tennessee! (And agree, those are all very important reasons!)
I've been a little hesitant on doing a video like that because it can be so opinionated due to so many of us have different wants and desires, but I think along those lines, maybe doing something like best areas if you want land, or close to city, or something like that, I think I can put something like that together
Enlightened One , I'm from Fallbrook and have been in Knoxville for 24 yrs. I have to agree with Hoag it's really depends on what you want. I've been all over the state for either work , club soccer with the kids or just site seeing and I personally think East TN is the best place to live.
Check out Knoxville,Oak Ridge,Clinton and Maryville.
Tennessee changes from one end of state to the other. West TN. Is flat and open. Memphis probably not the best area. Nashville is nice in the outskirts, but downtown is turning liberal. Chattanooga has small mountains, good shopping. Knoxville it good place if you don’t mind crowds. Northeast Tn, has mountains, trout fishing, hunting, it is excellent for outdoors people. Not as populated. A 1800 sf home in rural TN is less than $200k. No state income tax.
I agree it depends on your life style. East tennessee had many mountains and lakes for plenty of outdoor activities. Oak Ridge has an excellent school system but most of Tennessee has decent school systems which surprises most people.
I hope you left your California politics back there.
I live in So Cal and I want to move to Knoxville, Tennessee. We are looking to buy a home there and retire. I’m sick of the ridiculous liberal politics in California and Gruesome Newsom.
Pls don’t bring your politics that caused your state to go down hill
Ignore the idiot. Knoxville is a great place to live. Gets a little wild on football Saturday but hey the bright side is you can get around the city with little to no traffic.
We made the move a few months ago from the SoCal Coast to the KY/TN boarder & I agree with everything you’ve said here! Best decision ever. The simplicity, peace, friendliness, scenery, weather... So worth it!!
You must have moved close to where I just moved to Union City! So blessed to be here now
@@lisaazzano1811 yes! Not far from there :)

That’s exactly where me and my family want to move from Oregon 😁
I just love y’all. I am from Mississippi but I have a cabin not to far from y’all, I bought it after my husband passed. The next year my mom died unexpectedly and this October my sister passed away, she had taken a nap and did not wake up. It is just me and my son now and I come up to the cabin as much as possible, it feels like heaven. I would so much like to meet y’all one day.
Oh my, that is so hard to hear. Glad you have somewhere to find some peace and quiet with your son 🙏🏻 Hopefully we meet up!
Becky, sorry for loss of your family members. Awful. God bless.

@@caramel7123 I am scared also with what is going on with our country. I live in Mississippi in the country back off the road so I hope to hide from the bad stuff. It is hard watching over stuff by yourself since my husband passed but I am prepared the best I can. I never cared about keeping up with other people but I can see where that would be hard in that environment
Tennessee is about help each other. Even when they see stupidity they are very sweet in how they call it out. There are Fruits of The Spirit in East Tennessee.
Me and my family are moving to Knoxville in a few weeks. I have only been to Knoxville twice, a total of 7 days, but I already agree with everything you have said. My husband has been working there for 5 weeks and he is loving it. I believe that you won’t find better people than you do in Tennessee. I love their conservative values as I am very conservative. We are moving from Ohio. We were in Columbus almost 20 years. The city has changed so much. I can’t wait to get to Tennessee! 🧡
Nike???? pro china, anti american co... besides that smart move, Iv'e lived in both places. Where I live in the south we consider Kalifornia behind enemy lines. Welcome to free state, love TN!!!~
A "local yokel" is a term used in CB communications to describe a local cop car. "Smokey Bear" is the term used in CB communications to describe a Tennessee Highway Patrol car. The girl in the video used the term "local yokel" to describe herself as a native Tennessean from the local area. Maybe from Maryville/Blount County? East Tennessee is a great place for many reasons. The people are mostly good in East Tennessee because lots of people still attend Church and worship God/follow Jesus. A Christian environment gives you nice people, low crime, and low taxes. I hope you Hoags can find a good Church to join. Welcome to Tennessee!
I'm planning my escape from NJ to Eastern Tennessee very soon between April-September of this year. Born and raised here, but Governor Phil Murphy turned this state into east coast California. I HATE IT! Few of my family members moved down there and after visiting twice, I never wanted to leave. Can't get out of this overtaxed, liberal, corrupted, sanctuary state fast enough!
Nice, glad you are looking at options
I'm a Jersey girl from Ocean County. My heart misses the Pinelands. I'm a Piney. ha But, I know Jersey will be under water at some point. God showed me TN and I believe I'm called the eastern TN, Knoxville region maybe. I'm waiting for God to open the right doors for me to move there from CO. I HATE Colorado! If you or anyone in eastern TN has a room to rent, please keep me mind.
@@Stall-FedCalves I'm a Jersey boy from Morris County. My family members moved to Knoxville and I'm considering eastern Tennessee as well. LOVE The Smokys! I'm surprised you hate Colorado. That state was in my top 5 states to move to. It's such a shame to see what NJ has become. It's not and will never be what it use to be. Murphy hammered the final nail in the coffin for NJ to sleep in.
@@stevencastellanojr I’ll always miss the beautiful woods & water there.
@@stevencastellanojr Colorado is horrible for SO many reasons. Nothing but a dry overcrowded concrete jungle desert.
Since we are all moving to TN & they are Kind & Welcoming to those coming. Then those coming have the responsibility to uphold the Way of Life we are All Seeking. It is everyone's responsibly to stay Kind & Respectful & Treat Humans as though they are Human. The Entire West Coast from Western WA down to the Boarder of Mexico, people have lost their minds towards one another. The saddest part is they act like they don't notice any thing wrong with treating one another like zombies!!!
It's creeping into that way in Ohio in some areas too because of the rona. Some people are losing their humanity, and it's sad, and honestly, a little disturbing.
Got to say, I left California 10 years ago and live in eastern Tn in the mountains. Life is amazing. Californians I know complain it rains or snows to much here, I laugh. Look around you I say, see the green lush forest of hardwoods and the wild turkey and deer and other critters? That only here because of the rain/snow. In California most of it is brown, dead grasses even in the foothills, all the water that naturally went to the central part of the state is in the California aqua duct headed for LA because that area can’t support 1/100th of the population without it, leaving much of California brown. Want Freedom? There is none in California, they take most of your money, overburden you with rules, regulations and permits and if you don’t think or act how they want you are canceled and they feel good about it. Tennessee, do what you want as long as it doesn’t effect anyone else negatively (not their feelings but in fact) If you want 5 acres in the woods to disappear in, be self sufficient don’t owe anything to anyone except your self, your God and your neighbors that is a doable dream in Tennessee, In California? Please.

Haha, those Jones', they're just not good for ya! I'm a native Oregonian. Grew up in a small town on the coast. Graduated in a High School class of 54 and 48 of those I started Kindergarten with. Both my Wife's and my family were from California. Nearly all of our living relatives are still in California. I know what you're taking about. I don't even recognize Oregon now. A friend of mine since 4th grade lives in South Carolina right now. He and I and one other classmate are looking to buy adjoining retirement lots to build on in Tennessee. I want to move back to the America I grew up in.
I am so happy that youtube recommended your video. I love it and the ones I have watched so far. by the way, welcome to tennessee from union city tennessee. Welcome, and stay blessed
Awesome, glad the algorithm works sometimes....thank you!!!
Thanks Hoag! We visited Eastern Tennessee back in October and fell in love, we bought our trailer yesterday, two more months in California to sell our house, keep up the great work creating inspiration.

Thank you so much for appreciating our state and the people here. It's nice to hear. Complaints are the norm from transplants from other states. Again, thank you so much honey. God bless you and your family.
I have lived in Tennessee for 21 years now. I have lived in 7 Eastern/Southern states but I ❤️ Tennessee the best. My biggest concern is that Blue staters are leaving their Blue states because the democrats they voted in have made their states miserable to live in. People come to Tennessee because we are a vibrant, successful, beautiful state but please leave your Blue State values and voting pattern behind you in the failed state you are leaving. Please don’t come here and turn our red state purple or blue. You will as surely destroy this state as your voting destroyed the state you are escaping. With that I will say that Eastern Tennessee, from Chattanooga to Johnson City, is drop dead gorgeous especially Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge. Welcome to Tennessee and please keep it great by voting Red!
I love that you love this area ( how could you not ) .. And i also love that you understand the importance of assimilation. I hope i see ya around sometime Hoag family !
Hope so!
Keep it up HOAG! I’m moving there in 6 months for college at Union University in Jackson, TN. Can’t wait!
Nice! Congrats on the jump
