Review of Kingsport, Tennessee


Great Town.........Slow Down............
Star Rating - 3/29/2008
If your looking for a great place to live with a much slower pace this is it. People call you "honey" here and you can get tea that tastes like it was made for hummingbirds! Wal-mart is still a big deal and you will likely see 4 people you know there. They have all the major brand name stores now (even a Starbucks!!) WOW! We have trails, mountain biking, rivers, lakes, streams, dams, trout, every activity you can think of. Big Topics of Interest: gas prices, the new target, bristol motor speedway, who got a DUI last week... you know stuff like that.... Anyway it's a small town with a lot of heart. I don't know what the heck "quality of life means" (some ad. guru came up with that one) but if I were to give it from 1 to 10 (10best) I would give a 7!
