Time wise, 20 minutes or so?

Depending on what you are looking for...you can get a lot more for your money (and still stay out of the higher crime areas) if you move North up I-75. Powell area isn't terribly expensive, and is still a pretty straight shot down Interstate to Campus and UT Hospital.

Edit to add...if you are willing to go 25-30 minutes, you can make it all the way to Anderson County (Norris Area). Much more rural, and near great fishing/skiing for days off.
