Hey all,

My darling bride has decided that she has "maybe" one Wisconsin winter
left in her and wants to move south. She has decided that we "need" to
move to Kentucky or Tennessee. Many of you know me and know I need
fishing and hunting opportunities or I'll go crazy, or at least crazier
than I am now. Janet wants four distinct seasons, preferably without
months of cold weather and snow like we have now. I on the other hand
really don't want to leave northern Wisconsin, finding I can deal better
with the snow and cold versus high heat and humidity. So while I like the
idea of not snowblowing the driveway, I'm less than thrilled with the
thought of leaving my home state.

However, with that being said, we've begun to investigate the two states.
I've done a little looking online in the Eddyville Kentucky area as I've
been there before.

I know that Tennessee doesn't have a state income tax, and it has
"TennCare" a state sponsored health care program. Does anyone know if
Kentucky has similar bonus points like the aforementioned?

Basically what I need to know is the pro's and con's of living in each
state. Taxes, property values, health care, cost of living, climate,
fishing/hunting opportunities, job opportunities (the wife will still have
to have a job), etc. are all things I need opinions on, as well as any
potential locations.

Anyone have any thoughts?

How about a summer home and a winter home.
