Rik, moved from Jupiter, FL to Knoxville about seven years ago, and absolutely love it here.  (Don't consider it North, however, as I went to school in Wisconsin and lived in Maine...those are north.)  Great hiking, world class motorcycle roads, great photographic subject matter.  The main UT campus being here helps in many ways, but Chattanooga and it's downtown are probably a little nicer than Knoxville.  It's also only 1.5 hours to Atlanta, if you need an urban fix.

There is a vast difference between Sweetwater and Chattanooga.  I'm not aware of any night life or cultural life in Sweetwater.  It's a little farm town, but good if you're on some retro, Mayberry sort of kick!

I don't know Chattanooga that well but am friends with one of it's former mayors, so PM me if you need some help with something.
