Thinking of moving to central Tennessee what lake would you recommend to live on that has good bass fishing and safe community?

thanks

Look at several places.  Here is my short list and I have actually been looking at real estate around each. First look all around Livingston Tn.  It is north of Cookeville TN. It puts you near Dale Hollow Lake.  It is first rate.  It also means you could easily hit Center Hill, Cordell Hull, a little farther and the lakes around Nashville like Piercy Priest and Hickory make short day runs.  You would not be far from Chicamagua or Nickajack either.  Next check around McMinville which is below Center hill and from there again your short hops to other lakes are numerous.
