"I drive my personal car everywhere I go. I do not have access to public transportation. It takes around 20 minutes to get downtown from the mountain I live on. Very private and I chose to live here."

"Ive lived in Dunlap my entire life. Its a town where everybody knows everything about everybody. Its peaceful and quite but privacy can be an issue. Between facebook and topix everybody will know your business, whether its true or not. But the vast majority of the people are nice and welcoming. Theres not much choice for telephone or cable providers. Bledsoe telephone cooperative offeres telephone, cable, internet...but they are extremely expensive. Most people in Dunlap have cell phones and internet through cell phone carriers. And they also mostly go with dish network for satellite services. Theres not much industry for jobs in dunlap so most people commute to work to chattanooga mostly. If your looking for a quite town thats low on crime and has decent schools, then Dunlap is great for you. If your looking for a place with alot of local jobs and lots of shopping, then you need to be closer to chattanooga. Overall, Dunlap is a great town and a great place to live....as long as you dont mind the great views and peacefulness of a small town."
