I lived in Kingsport and moved to Greenville. 😢 When I moved back to Kingsport, that was the best thing that ever happened to me 😊. Good riddance Greenville, hello Kingsport ❤.

Greenville was the most boring town with low paying jobs and just shitty in general.

[@Somee989]

Boring is good. You can go from county to city in 30 minutes. As far as low paying jobs, it all settles out. Big bucks up North but big bills too.

Then why is Greeneville having a population boom right now if it’s boring and no jobs.
