Top 4 Reasons Why You Should Move to West Tennessee


If you've been researching the best states to relocate to, Tennessee is most likely on your radar. Visitors keep returning to the Volunteer State because of its pleasant weather, vibrant cities, and
cheaper housing, including low cost of living and taxes. Tennessee is well-known for its lively music scene, high-quality drinks, and the Great Smoky Mountains.

Many famous country music singers and artists like Elvis Presley and Dolly Parton call the southern and soulful state home. West Tennessee combines small-town charm with an urban "can-do" attitude to provide extraordinary experiences and diverse culture. Here are the top four reasons to negotiate an offer for your dream home and move to Tennessee.

 


1. Great Communities to Live In

Never has there been a better time to move to the county seat of Madison County because you'll be spoiled for choice in the many remarkable places to live in. The key is to work with a local realtor who can help you find the ideal locale. Jackson, Tennessee, for example, is a bustling city in the heart of West Tennessee. This delightful community boasts multiple museums, historic sites, and attractions.

The strong economy, enthralling parks, and stunning attractions make it appealing for many people eager to call West-Central Tennessee their home. If farming interests you, West Tennessee, with its miles of lush farmland, is the place to be.

 


2. You Can Start a Thriving Career

Moving to Jackson could provide opportunities to work with well-known brands for anyone looking for a career change. Tennalum, a manufacturer of aluminum rods and bars for aerospace, automotive, and general industrial applications, is a well-known company enjoying success in the region. 

Also located in Jackson are the Carlstar Group, Kellogg Company, Delta Faucet, Stanley Black & Decker, UGN Automotive, and TBDN manufacturing company. BlueOval City is Ford Motor's latest project, expected to create thousands of new jobs for West Tennessee residents.

 


3. A Leading Destination for Retirees

Tennessee is an excellent retirement destination with a mild climate and breathtaking landscapes to enjoy year-round. Various parks and lakes are at your disposal to hike and fish to your heart's content. This state is a cost-effective place to live compared to others across the country. Collierville, particularly, is an ideal area to retire in West Tennessee City.

Located just 20 minutes away (drive) from Memphis, Collierville has all the amenities of suburban living and a charming downtown area boasting plenty of shopping and dining places. Find a home with the help of a Tennessee realtor and start enjoying some of the following benefits:

  • Access to exceptional healthcare
  • Affordable housing and cost of living
  • Many historical and cultural attractions
  • Favorable tax rates (no capital gains tax and state income tax)

 


4. A Booming Real Estate Market

The overall economy may have had a few difficult years, but that hasn't stopped the Tennessee real estate market from thriving. Some primary reasons the state maintains an accessible economic threshold are inexpensive homes, affordable living costs, and low taxes. Many modest options exist in rural Tennessee if you have dreamed of having that perfect piece of land or farm.

Make no mistake; the state also has some seriously affluent communities with access to prestigious services, schools, and amenities that are perks of living among the wealthy. Visitors who come for a weekend quickly realize they want to make Tennessee their permanent home. Numerous reasons are available to relocate to Tennessee, including the low cost of living, awesome job opportunities, countless outdoor activities, mild weather, and more.

Tennessee has become a desirable option for natives, out-of-state investors, retirees, students, and working-class individuals looking to simplify their lives.
