Howdy Ags,
I'm sure of you may remember, I posted a similar topic about NWA a few months back. My wife & I are stuck between moving to Central TN (Columbia/Fairview IE country outside Nashville) or moving up to NWA (West Fork/Elkins/Praire Grove)
Anyone lived in both areas and have any thoughts?
We plan on owning land, love the outdoors & especially to hunt (chase giant whitetails and greenheads).
Things we like about Central TN:
- Job opportunities, seems more of a safe bet on a robust economy
- More southern feel
- Better schools for kids?
- Better small towns, super nice downtown with community feel
- Living in a new area IE getting out of TOLA (experience TN/AL/KY etc)
Things we like about NWA:
- More affordable (more land)
- Earlier in the growth cycle compared to TN
- Closer outdoor activities (Ponca AR hiking/fly fishing etc vs 3.5 hr drive to smokies)
- Better huntin??? (SE KS deer & Waterfowl in KS and eastern OK)
Any advice would be appreciated!
