There is weather data in the C-D profile of Robbinsville, as Stecoah may be too small. Robbinsville gets 3-4 inches of snow in January and February. It would help to have a 4-wheel drive vehicle, but those are not huge snowfalls.
Others on the forum report that cell service can be difficult in the mountains, depending on where one in relation to the tower and whether reception is blocked by mountains.
Most of the people who live in Sylva have jobs in recreation, retail, construction and accomodations and food service. You might also look at Cherokee and the casino industry.
Stecoah is in a valley, so I am sure there is a chance of flooding. You could check with Floodsmart.gov for the rating of a specific address.
