We consider ourselves some of Chattanooga’s biggest fans. We love welcoming new restaurants and developments to town and watching the community continue to grow + flourish.

With that being said, there are several things about Chattanooga we hope never change + we asked you all if you felt the same way — spoiler alert: you did.

Here are seven special things about Chattanooga that locals hope remain the same.

The local business support! I love that Chattanooga isn’t flooded by chains. The local businesses are my favorite.” @djordyn. We couldn’t agree more — Chattanoogans are all about buying local + supporting small businesses .

“The murals all around the city!” @daniel_trentham. The Chattanooga art scene isn’t messing around. Check out our guide to local murals + some of the community’s newest additions .

Accessibility.”@adamrberry90. Pro tip: check out these local activities for mobility-challenged people .

“Being able to find free parking some of the time.” @jlbnerdy. Avoid that parking ticket with our guide to free, cheap, or easily accessible parking in town .

The local business and market community! We love the River Market, Chattanooga Market, and all other pop ups to be able to connect with our community!” — @chattanoogaclaycompany.
