Tennessee doesn't have a state income tax on salaries or wages.
Some people see that as a plus but the state gets its revenue in other ways so it evens out IMO.
Oh, wow! My bad, sorry to you both. I know they do some weird tax on investments and have high sales taxes, but I could have sworn they also had income tax. Oops!

Oh no biggie. Yeah I see they tax stock dividends but in 2021 that is supposed to be eliminated also. At that point TN will be income tax-free across the board it seems: https://www.timesfreepress.com/news/...g-2021/487137/
I work for a healthcare company and live in Plano, TX . I am planning to relocate closer to my parents in Florida. I will be relocating next year 06/2021. I am having to decide on Nashville,TN, Charlotte,NC, Tampa, FL and Atlanta,GA. I’m single young lady with no kids. I like to stay in the metro area. I’m trying to figure out which is the best city to make that move for next year. Here are the categories that I need to know:
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you all in advance ~
Cost of living - Tampa or Charlotte. Charlotte doesn't have the cost of being on the coast, but Tampa has cheaper goods and I think rent is slightly cheaper. Good housing can be found in both.
State income tax - Tampa, Florida has no income tax. I think Tennessee is abolishing/has abolished theirs, but the sales tax is sky high.
Crime rate - Tampa is clearly the winner here, there is no "about the same." Tampa is considered one of the safest big cities in the US. Florida Heat doesn't use Google.
Diversity - Tampa or Atlanta. Tampa isn't really "dominated" by anyone, while Atlanta has a large Asian population for the south and has a good minority mix.
Just on that criteria, and the fact that you want to be closer to people in Florida:
