Johnson City is ranked as the No. 65 "Best Small Place for Business and Careers" in the US by Forbes, and No. 5 in Kiplinger's list of "The 10 Least-Expensive Cities For Living in the U.S.A." stating the low cost of living is attributed to affordable homes and below-average utility, transportation and health-care costs.

The MSA is also a component of the Johnson City-Kingsport-Bristol, Tennessee-Virginia Combined Statistical Area - commonly known as the "Tri-Cities" region. This CSA is the fifth-largest in Tennessee with an estimated 500,538 people in residence.
Johnson City is an economic hub largely fueled by East Tennessee State University and the medical "Med-Tech" corridor,[19] anchored by the Johnson City Medical Center, Franklin Woods Community Hospital, ETSU's Gatton College of Pharmacy and ETSU's Quillen College of Medicine.
Johnson City is ranked #35 "Best Small Place for Business and Careers" in the USA. Due to its climate, high-quality health care, and affordable housing, it is ranked #8 "Best Place for African Americans to Retire" by Black Enterprise magazine. Kiplinger ranked Johnson City #5 in "The 10 Least-Expensive Cities For Living in the U.S.A.", stating the low cost of living is attributed to affordable homes and below-average utility, transportation and health-care costs.
The popular citrus soda, Mountain Dew, traces its origins to Johnson City. In July 2012, PepsiCo announced a new, malt-flavored version of the drink named Mountain Dew Johnson City Gold, in honor of the city. The drink was test marketed in the Chicago metropolitan area, Denver, and Charlotte, beginning in late August.
I recently discovered this video and I enjoy it so much. I'm 70 and was born in Johnson City. My dad got a better job in Florida so we moved when I was 3 and I still live in Florida. So many good memories of summer vacations there .....my grandmother lived on W. Maple and I remember walking to the Giant to buy groceries and to "town" to shop at Kings with her. A sandwich from the Shamrock and pizza from Henry's - I still remember those special treats. I haven't been back in several years . JC has defiantly changed . Thank you for rekindling some happy memories!
What's it like to be at a red light and when it turns green nobody honks!?! That's nice
No…. People get shot constantly downtown, we have a horrible homeless problem also the sidewalks have sh*t all over them (human and dog actually) and we can’t get the problem fixed because of all the whiney liberals.
❤️ from Johnson city Tennessee
I lived in jc for 7 years and loved it. Unfortunately I had to leave to get away from an abusive relationship. I lived in the downtown area ( Montgomery and fairview) and never had any major problems. Sad to hear about the homeless situation. It was starting to get bad when I left.but I never had a problem with , I actually knew some of them by name. One thing I didn't see was pals.
Yep, you captured quite a few of the homeless here. Here I am writing a year later (from when you posted this) and the homeless/street people has escalated so badly that there have been meetings to see what can be done - with bigger cities sending their homeless here and trying to clean up their places, they caused such an overflow here in JC that many services had to shut down as there are not enough funds to handle it. Poor people.
Haha, there's hardly any homeless in Johnson City.. ..I mean seriously you have no idea obviously what it's like on the West Coast
HOME IS BEST!!! SMALL TOWN..I DON'T KNOW WHY THEY CALL IT A CITY...BUT K...ITS MY CITY!!! ROCKY TOP 100%!!!
Well considering there's hundreds and probably thousands of "villages and towns"with a population of less then 10,000 Johnson City is actually a decent size city in the big picture...It's the 9th largest place in Tennessee it's not to bad of a size I actually think it's perfect imo...I live in a city with 20,000 people in the city limits and 40 in the county and it's plenty of big for me now my in law's live in a village of about 800 people I couldn't do that lol ..

Nice clean town. Why is there no foot traffic down town? Was everything closed at the time
It was October last year so most people were probably staying inside.
I lived in Johnson City and Gray from 1985-1997. Downtown has not changed much. Most of the growth that was occurring when I left was on State of Franklin between Market Street and Bristol Highway.
Is this Kingston Tennessee as well is it cheaper to live than taxachusste
I currently live in Charlotte but my job has me working from home permanently now and I’m thinking about moving to Johnson City or Hickory since rent is getting expensive in Charlotte and I don’t necessarily need to be close to where I work anymore.
Is Johnson City a good place to live,I am thinking about moving to,I am from IL
Thanks for sharing this!
Glad you enjoyed it!
You still live there hello there the people suck
How is the crime rate in Johnson City?
this is where i live lol
Hey, I have a job opportunity in the area. It would be a huge move for me. What's your opinion of the area?
Beautiful
When are you planning on showing the rest of Johnson City?
It's a smaller town so I probably won't be covering any other areas outside of the downtown.
@@MileageMikeTravels No, it's not. You barely even covered a third of Johnson City. The entire huge ETSU University area, the motor mile, the roan street restaurant stretch, the tree streets neighborhood, the large VA complex and hospital and medical buildings. There's considerably more to show than what's on this video.
I lived in Johnson City, all my life, nothing but drugs and crime downtown now, don’t go there after dark.
Are you taking road trips to Tennessee?
Taking road trips everywhere
Luv Tennessee my home memphis
What up people- I’m thinking of moving here... looks nice
It is trust me I live here
Exactly why I am checking this vid out. Thinking of a spring move myself!
Seems like everyone is moving here lol. 5 years ago there was no traffic, and now it’s packed all the time
My wife and i will be up this weekend to take possession of our new home and i cant wait.
I've lived here my entire life it is nice people are calm it's a laid back environment there's good and there's bad everywhere I have learned The company You Keep determines the trouble you meet to say FYI there's a lot of good jobs here
A, I seeing a lot of closed down storefronts?
Most of the growth appears to be occurring away from the downtown.
Me and my wife have been thinking of moving our family there. We are from North Georgia and moved to Florida a cpl years ago, hate it!! Trying to decide if I could find a job there and us a house to rent.
I just closed on a house their last Monday from Florida. We are starting our move this weekend.
You could find a job and home easily I've lived in Johnson City my entire life I'm 40 there are some wonderful jobs my husband works at LPI they make huge spas and bathtubs makes $18 an hour they are always hiring
So I assume a Target or Walmart. How about places like a Ross, Marshals.
Yes they have those.
@@MileageMikeTravels Where? I’m here on a work assignment it says that Marshall is in Bristol
@@msh5597 Late reply, but there's no Marshalls in JC. No coat factory either, but they've got one in Kingsport. Most big box stores you can think of are in town though
There's a ross near petsmart on state of Franklin and 2 walmarts.
God blles you usa thanks
I love Johnson City and have a lot of nostalgia for the downtown shopping district from when I was a kid, but unfortunately this video concentrates on some of the ugliest, most rundown parts of the city. It certainly would scare off anyone thinking about moving here. To borrow a line from an old Bette Davis movie, "What a dump!"
I love the city, but the actual part with people living in it is a dump, amirite? Go drive through the residential 500k+ homes where you never see any sign of actual community
I enjoyed the video, but you could have cleaned your windscreen!
Haha, man it's a struggle when making these videos.
11:00 A Biden sign??? Why!? What has he or Harris ever done for anyone except billionaires?
So the place is basically a giant run down ghetto?
No..not at all.
Hear the gunshot at 3:00
That's 😱. I was planning to visit this place but never mind.
@@vivelavida8317 Yeah, that was definitely a gunshot, couldn't have been noises from the vehicle on the road. Run and hide
I heard it too.id never live there..heard that city's haunted.his camera went skyward.ghosts like to mess with electrical equipment.its their favorite hobby..lol..paranormal fan here..missed that red Peterbilt he comes up on at the light.i got a die cast model just like it.glad he fixed the camera.hard to see the road.when your looking at the sky.😁🤭🤔
