Income Tax

Nashville is one of America's fastest-growing cities. Healthcare, tech, and entertainment industries are driving massive growth. No state income tax, affordable (for now), and a culture scene that goes way beyond country music. Remote workers get a city that's big enough to have everything but small enough to feel connected.
