Channing Muller, 38, purchased a three-bedroom home in Chattanooga, Tennessee, in 2019. Now she rents a two-bedroom apartment in Chicago and feels freer not having to upkeep a house alone. In 2017, I moved from Washington, DC to Chattanooga, Tennessee. I had just gone through a bad breakup, and I thought the city would be the perfect change for me. An additional transition I noticed with downsizing is that I used to entertain a lot and have big dinner parties.
