I tried to answer this but the computer gods had other ideas. Schools are mostly quite good EXCEPT in the City of Knoxville, especially Austin-East. There have been shootings there over the past few years, and one kid who brought a gun to class tried to pull it on cops and he was shot...dead. Outside the city, in Knox County, the schools are quite good.
We don't have income tax in Tennessee, and our sales taxes are on par with middle-average American states of the midwest etc. Utilities: We pay approx $58/month for water and sewage, and an average of $142 to $150/ month for electricity and gas. We have TVA here, so we have cheaper utilities than most of the nation, and especially up north. Your mileage might vary, but those are our averages living in west Knox County.
It's a cool, sunny day here in east Tennessee.
We have freezing temperatures here. Hey one question. What are school taxes and utilities like there?

Thank you. Do you have school tax?
We pay school tax on my home which is a small ranch $3000.00 and goes up yearly.
How does your school tax work?
Not that I'm aware of, I think it comes out of the general fund of county taxes. I'll have to dig into that.
