Clifton Tn (property taxes, home, rent)

[bylise]

We live in Fl and are interested in property in West Tn. We are coming to look at some property in Clifton. Has anyone heard of this town? How far is it to a city with cultural type things? How far is Nashville? What is the cost of living like i.e property taxes , car ins, home insurance etc. Is Publix a grocery in Tn?

Any info regarding the are would be helpful. We would probably not be moving until we get ready to retire but we have children that may be interested and would still need to work. They are both firefighter paramedics. What is the work situation for that profession.

Thanks

Heehee, my parents would want me to tell you, "it's horrible and backward, stay far away", but honestly, it's a lovely place.

They are actually quite progressive, and looking to grow. It's still a very small town (prison population not included) and the people are friendly and personable. The prison is out of the way, and the inmates are not the dangerous type. There is a golf course there designed by Jack Nicklaus, and they're looking to improve a great deal more land in similar fashion.

There's not much for young folks to do there, but there are a lot of them, so you'll see kids strolling down to the river to fish, or cruising around in their cars (up and down, up and down) but they're not troublesome.

It's peaceful and quiet, and I would move there in a heartbeat. (My hubby isn't ready to move just yet, but we'll get there.)
