Clarksville, Tennessee SperlingViews

I am considering moving to Clarksville in a few years. I've been checking out the job market, particularly with Tenneessee State government. The wages seem rather low, in some cases comparable to the minimum wage. Is this par for the course in Clarkesville or are there other well paying organizations in the area for college graduates.

I lived in Clarksville for 3.5 years as my husband was stationed in Fort Campbell, KY. It is a very nice place to live and you can find a nice home for a reasonable price. However, as to jobs, there are not too many. If you wish to get a good paying job, you may have to drive to Nashville, which is abou 1 hour away from Clarksville. The pay is pretty decent if you don't mind the drive.
