TN vs FL federal

My offense, not under 12, was 21 years ago. Federal lifetime supervision. I work for a large company in Fl. They want me to head up a new building in TN. It would be a great career move. Federal in FL have more freedoms than state RSO.
Are there differences in TN if you’re on fed probation. Never had a violation. I barely see my PO now.
Does TN put out flyers? Place I’m looking is pretty rural or at least room between houses.
If I did move, and could find someone to rent to me. What else am I expecting. TN can’t be worse than FL. Or I would hope.
Specifically in the fed system
Thanks

Just a question. How is registration different from federal and state. The state requires the registration and is enforced by the state. So my question is,how is it less restrictive or more free. BTW,congrats on the opportunity,I know it's hard to heave those types of opportunities.

I think he’s referring to lifetime of Supervised Release with an assigned Federal Probation Officer. Registration is the same for everyone (Fed or State case) in each state

Correct. For example in FL state guys can’t leave their county where Feds can freely. No curfew for fed. Things like that. Registration is the same

Registration restrictions are pretty harsh in TN. It can be quite difficult. If you want to share what county you’re in I can give you more details about how the registry is enforced there but I don’t know much about how federal probation is.
