I prefer Tennessee:
-Better job market
-Better scenery
-Smoky Mountains are awe-inspiring
-Nashville and Memphis are great cities that have preserved their historic districts and music heritage
-Clarksville has a nice quaint downtown
-Vanderbilt, Univ. of Tennessee, Belmont, and Rhodes are among the best schools in the country
-Population projected to grow 30% over the next 30 years b/c of its job-friendly market climate
-No state income tax (ties in w/ last point)
-Still hasn't lost its Southern hospitality, especially in the small towns
-MUCH better class of people and less pretentious than Kentucky; people hold doors open for you, and say "thank you" when you hold a door open for them. Some of the best service I've ever had in the service industry has been in Tennessee; Kentucky retailers tend to be less polite and more snooty.
As the commercial goes, Tennessee is the "All-American Getaway." Apparently it's becoming more than that.
