Sam,
Hi, my name is Diane Burke and I am an agent in Chattanooga. There are really so many different areas with different things to offer. It will depend on your families lifestyle and what you and your children like to do. In regards to schools check out
http://www.greatschools.net, they will rate the schools based on academics and you can make a decision from there. I am a relocation specialist and I have moved alot of families to East Brainerd and get alot of requests about Signal Mountain. We have alot of subdivisions with neighborhood pools and this seems to be a big draw for relocating families. Most anywhere you live in Chattanooga you will be 15-30 minutes away from Downtown where the Childrens Discovery Museum, Aquarium and IMAX Theatre are. They are huge with the kids in the area and visiting families.
You can check out the crime stats at
http://www.cityrating.com/citycrime, this should help with your questions about crime stats.
We also have the draw of the Chickamauga Lake and the Mountains with plenty of activities. So, it really does depend on your lifestyle. I would love to discuss your likes and dislikes. Please contact me via email at dburke@realtycenter.com or phone at 423-774-7703. I can send you a relocation package with some information if you would like.
