I've often wondered what percentage of the folks in this forum live around Knoxville. Or anywhere in the state.
So here's a chance to nail it down a little.
For those of you who are not Vols fans, happy to have you here, but please pass on this poll. The vast majority of you live outside Tennessee, and you'd throw off the profile. Thanks.
Go Vols!
p.s. and EDIT: synthesizing results -- I'll update this if the percentages change significantly --
1. About 11% of us (65 of 588) actually live in the Knoxville area. So we're mostly not a Knoxville crowd. That's perhaps surprising, to some here.
2. A bit less than two-thirds of us (356 of 588, 61%) currently live in Tennessee. That seems about right, actually. We are a mobile society.
3. Among those of us who do live in state, we're split 15% west, 32% central, 53% east. That's interesting.
p.p.s. and SECOND EDIT:
You ask, I deliver
There are now options for Atlanta metro area, and outside the United States. Everyone who already put in a response should have the option to Change Vote (bottom right corner of the poll chart) if one of these new responses more accurately reflects your situation. Thanks for the suggestions, Ed and DG. [/QUOT
Yep. I've had a craving for fishing in Earl's holler ever since you mentioned it a while backJoe knows the little town where I from speedwell , there is nothing here but God fearing people that truly have volunteer spirit . Help you in anyway they can . It's good to know there is still people like that in this old world

Basically this. I would say I am from Memphis, TN. I went to school in Knoxville, and lived there for 5 years. I am now living in Central Indiana. Ironically, my drive from out of state is shorter than the one I made from Memphis. The major difference is that I now have kids which makes that ride feel 2X longer.“Where are we from” and “where do we live” are totally different questions. Northeast TN will always be home. Wilmington is where my mail has been delivered for years now.
There is a diaspora from the University of Tennessee. UT degrees are valued worldwide.
In middle Tennessee on the border of East Tennessee.
