Mid score (6-8) · Your profile
Mountain City is in the far northeastern corner of Tennessee, closer to Charlotte, North Carolina by driving distance than to many Tennessee cities. The county is genuinely Appalachian in geography and culture. Very limited commercial activity. The Blue Ridge Parkway proximity brings some through-traffic from outdoor enthusiasts.
Lower score (below 6)
Johnson County is in the furthest northeastern corner of Tennessee and harder to reach than almost any other county in the state. Mountain City is a small Appalachian town with minimal commercial activity. The economy is what it's been for generations — small farming, some timber, and a population that's stayed put. An outsider would find almost nothing here and the community would have limited interest in them.
