Wife and I have found a house we like there in Athens,Tn. This video was much appreciated and welcoming as well. Can't wait to get over that way as were in Cookeville right now.
My wife and I have lived a little closer to Cleveland and Chattanooga the past eight years with no complaints to speak of however we are currently leaning towards looking for more land so Athens, Sweetwater and Loudon are all appealing so it is nice to see reviews on these areas.
I think Athens is okay if you like small, quite and not-much-going-on towns. To me it was way too boring, nothing to do, nowhere to go, not much walkability, poor architecture, except for few nice buildings in downtown. But generally downtown itself is not very well kept, in my opinion. If I had to choose back then, I would rather live in Cleveland or Maryville. It's nicer there. Additionally, there were constant theft in our neighborhood (it was not a bad part of town), so I don't think it's super safe there. Yes, you're in between Knoxville and Chattanooga, and in this video he says it's convenient, but I rather think it's equally far from everywhere and rather inconvenient. Of course, there were advantages about living there, too, but to me the disadvantages prevailed much more.
No it’s not in middle Tennessee and west where you see the tornado’s are more frequent. It is about 45 miles or so southwest of Knoxville just off I-75. You can have tornadoes anywhere but it is not a common occurrence.
Riceville, not Rossville

Did you already buy a house in Athens?
Do you know of a new income based apartment complex in Athens ?

Thank you for the feedback. If you need someone to assist I have an office in Athens and would love to help.
My experience with Athens is completely different from your, unfortunately. I had to stay there for two years, I'm very glad that we moved out.
What was your experience? I am think about moving to Athens.

Do you get much tornadoes in Athens, where exactly is Athens located,i like your video
They are much more rare in eastern and northeastern Tennessee. What just happened was in middle where it is much more common as well as in west.
Lived in Athens for many years myself. Let me know if I can help
I going to law suit you for taking a picture of my house

LOL!! Public, outdoor photography is NOT illegal. Google is your friend in this matter, and I suggest you use it.
