Morristown Sits on the Foot of Smoky Mountains 3.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 14, 2018) I've been living in Morristown for the last 8 years and I enjoy the nice community and friendly people that live in this city. Morristown has beautiful scenery especially in the fall months when the leaves begin to change. It is one of the highlights of the year. Morristown is a ...Read More great place to raise kids and it's a small town with a lot of charm and lot of activities for all age groups to enjoy. There are a lot of golf courses for avid golfers and it also has 3 disc golf courses as well for those individuals that like to play Ultimate Frisbee.

The best areas in Morristown to live would be around the Main Street areas. Some of the must-sees in our city is Cherokee Park and General Longstreet's Headquarters Museum. Morristown is a great place to live and raise a family and I recommend it to anyone looking to move to Tennessee and enjoy a small town with a lot of shops, restaurants and other activities to enjoy.
