Henderson is in Chester County, not Hardeman County. Chester County is a nice area; it's one of Tennessee's smallest counties. I grew up in neighboring Madison County. Chester County is rural to say the least; it's largest town, Henderson, has app. 6,000 residents.

Hardeman County is not my kind of place. Bolivar is the county seat.

Stay far, far away from Hardeman County. Trust me on this on.

There are some decent homes with acreage in Chester County for really good prices. The place across the street from my brother is about 5 years old, 3-4 BR, 2-3BA, 2 car garage, on about 10 acres, and is selling for like $140K.

One of the more interesting threads to read.

One one hand some praise the city and others condemn it. Quite a contrast!

The housing on a major Realtor site is ridiculously low for the first few pages, as low as $9k

That usually means serious drug/crime/abandoned issues.

There are always pockets in every city, but not usually to such extremes like posted here.

Locals have the first say imo. If you live here, then you should know what's up.

The good thing about Jackson is that crime is mostly isolated. Stay north of I-40 and you probably won't bother with what happens on Lexington, Whitehall, E. Chester, or Hays St.

By the way, for those who haven't been, all of these pictures are either of or within 6 minutes of the Knoxville Downtown. The beautiful lakes, river & mountains in the "countryside" aren't even included among those pictures, just the downtown and immediate area.

Unless a lot has changed since I moved away in 2001, I wouldn't be opposed to buying the ones on Holly and New St. The rest are probably crack houses though. They are located just off of Lexington Ave., which is bad news.

It still isn't common to see prices that low though, even in those war zones.

So when Johnny Cash and June Carter were singing about "Jackson," did they mean Jackson, TN or Jackson, MS? I always assumed Jackson, MS, but what do I know?

Coming from California, as a child I could never figure out why Johnnie Cash would want to go to Jackson, CA. a small gold rush town in the foothills. LOL
