Nashville and Chattanooga. Jobs range from $50k-$125k and rent is from $700-$1500/mo. Chattanooga is cheaper of the 2, but fewer jobs. Chattanooga also has gigabit internet and is practically in the middle of Nashville and Chattanooga. Great outdoor access for paddling, biking hiking and climbing. Not sure why I haven't moved there yet!

Can you explain why Chattanooga is more expensive? [This](http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=cost+of+living+chattano...) says otherwise. I'm considering both (and a number of other cities), so I'd really like to know.
