I heard soddy daisy is a nice place, also signal and lookout mt.

judy

you can do a city profile and get lots of info that way.

It really depends on what you are looking for. I'm gay and in a relationship, and I wouldn't live in Soddy-Daisy, Lookout, or Signal (esp. Signal) for anything, but that's my preference because I don't like the suburbs. I live in Highland Park and love it. It's a true "neighborhood", as in people know their neighbors and look out for one another. You don't find that in many places.

I am moving to chattanooga in a couple of weeks. I would like to find an aparment or townhouse about 20 or 30 miles outside chattanooga, somewhere in the mountains. Signal or look out mtn look good. Is there any thing else like that there? Any recommendations?

GPS ... I would send them to Baylor instead..

Ooltewah is nicer than Soddy Daisy by far...

[dasmarian]

guns,

Lookout and signal are only a few minutes from Chattanooga, and while they are mountains for sure they aren't country-living mountains, they are higher end suburbs. If that's what your looking for you might find an apartment complex on Signal, but none on Lookout.

Ooltewah is not nicer than Soddy. Unless an abundance of McSubdivisions and white vans is your idea of nicer. SD has nicer natural surroundings and more importantly nicer residents.

Vol D.: Sound like a good outdoor neighbor . Maybe our toll bridge is getting closer to being built .?
.. Those East shore residents will be over here on all our Tarzen ropes. (Right side of pic).

Soddy Daisy is just too far from downtown to even consider living there. I doubt the people there are any more friendly than the ones in Ooltewah either. Everybody has their own idea of what the perfect place is to live. It's different for everybody. I think Soddy Daisy is too far from the city and the drive is a bear. Oltewah is clean and frienldly with a lot of new homes and lots of 7th day adventists. So it really depends what you are looking for.
