If I had to live *anywhere* North of Ronaoke I'd kill myself......


Tennessee had 1 murder for every 16,680 people. 66% were caused by firearms.

The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy

Yep...

That's one of the reasons so many people who live North of Roanoke (yay!) Keep moving here... ;)

Larry, 1 in 16,680 isn't good. While it's not the worst murder rate in the country, it's closer to the worst than it is to the best.
The problem with having an open mind is that people keep trying to put things in it.

And as for people moving to Tennessee, it looks like it's pretty balanced: http://www.unitedvanlines.com/about-united/news/movers-study-2014

Population growth for Tennessee has been right about 3.25%, which is right around the national average.
