My husband and I moved to rural Henry
County in 1985. The milder climate,
manageable cost of living and sensible
property values/taxes were attention-getters
and influenced our decision to locate here.
After settling in, we really became aware of
the wide choice of opportunities to get
involved in activities and organizations
which especially interested us. People here
are friendly and churches are welcoming.
Essential shopping and medical care are
available.

We retired to Paris, TN from
Philadelphia, PA in 1987 and have been very
pleased with our decision. Comparing this
city with 12 other communities (6 states) in
which we have lived, Paris is the "BEST".
The city and county municipal services, the
taxes, utilities, health care, civic clubs,
churches and facilities for the arts are
more than just acceptable. The community is
a giving, caring and friendly center beyond
what most would expect. One cannot retire in
Paris without becoming involved and loving
the place.

After 40+ years in the Dallas/Fort Worth
Metroplex, I no longer hear airplanes taking
off day and night. I can hear the clock
strike the hour on the courthouse clock. I
know people everywhere I go. The mention of
God in the media is not unusual. From our
den, we watch the brightest array of birds
imaginable. The wail of a siren is unusual
enough that the dogs frequently howl with it
(never in Texas because it blended in with
the background noise). The sky is so blue. I
don't see the horizon as being brown. My
shoulder surgery couldn't have turned out
better anywhere else. Gerry (my wife) and I
frequently look at each other and remark how
glad we are that we are here.

Paris/Henry County, TN has been where we
call home for the past thirteen years. The
weather is wonderful, the fishing good and
best of all, the people are friendly and
helpful. The cost of living is also
reasonable. One never runs out of things to
do, as many of the organizations and the
library have many programs that are
available to all. Living here has been all
that we have expected our retirement to be.
We have movies, a live theater, bowling
alley, water aerobics and many other senior
activities and some of the good old south
cooking in our restaurants.
