Question Chattanooga, TN

Does anyone live in or near Chattanooga, TN? What is it like to live there? I know these are very vague questions but there is a job in the area and I'm curious to find out how people like the area.
Thanks in Advance

I lived in Huntsville, AL, which is a hour away. Chattanooga is just like any other mid-size city. It has some very nice areas, and some areas you do not want to go into. There is a lot to do in Chattanooga, and the surrounding area. Great curvy roads in North Alabama, North Georgia, and North Carolina. When I take my children to see their Grandparents (at least once a year), we make the trek to Chattanooga just for the Tennessee Aquarium, and Fat Man Squeeze. I also have family in OKC and Tulsa. Given the choice, I would much prefer the Chattanooga area.

Chattanooga has many great road within an hour away. Also has decent housing prices, no state income tax, not too far from Gatlinburg, Smokey Mtns, and Whitewater rafting.
People are decent. There's not a bunch of arts and culture but you're not far from Atlanta. No major sports teams but Nashville is 2 hours away.
On the down side, air quality is not good and they test emissions in Hamilton Co. Sales tax is 9.25% but property taxes aren't too bad.
PM me if you need more specific info.
