Should You Move To Morganton North Carolina?

[@thomasottvideos]

Hey, Tony: It was kind of you to take the personal time to provide this information about Western NC. Ever since I became a subscriber to your channel, I have always enjoyed your POV of the area. You are Western NC's best Ambassador. Keep up the excellent work. With kind regards, T. Phoenix, Arizona USA

Hi it is nice living here Morganton I came up here from Miami Florida to visit a friend back in 2006 and in 2007 I found myself living up here it is beautiful and the cost of living is fair I recommend that people come up this way to get out of those big cities like Miami Florida New York Chicago and the weather up this way is beautiful a little bit of cold a little bit of Summer a little bit of spring a little bit of fall it's nice I love it so I've been here since 2007 up until 2018 Happy New Year

Tony, thank you for your honest information. My wife and I are very close to retirement and have decided on western nc. We cannot wait to start this chapter in our life. Best Wishes. Tim

[@gdusblues8280]

Just came across this video. Very informative. Wish you could give an update on Hickory/Morganton area.

[@nc_cntrylife]

I grew up near Pilot Mountain, NC, ((very close to "Mayberry" , actually Mount Airy), but after living in San Diego and Virginia Beach, ended up just outside of Winston-Salem. My daughter graduated from Appalachian State University, and now she and her family live in Lenoir. My SIL works in Morganton at Broughton Hospital. They love it up there! They are very happy with the cost of living and a safe place to raise their children. And, there's still a huge influx of people moving into all areas of NC. The cost of housing and land has increased exponentially. It's sad because it prices locals out of the market, compared to what people moving in from up north can afford to pay.

[@tonyleeglenn]

I agree - land and housing is through the roof lately. Hopefully that issue will smooth out over time. My wife and I really like the area. Thanks so much for watching and sharing a nice comment!

[@oldhighwayhomestead378]

Thank you! Is so funny that you posted this just as I am seriously thinking about retiring in NC!!! This really helped me in a positive way. Having myself a diverse ethnic background can you tell me if there is any racial tension in Rural NC?

[@tonyleeglenn]

As you know there are racist tendencies almost everywhere, but that said - I don't see it so much here. Everyone seems to get along really well. The racial mix in the Catawba Valley is fairly diverse - still mostly white, but with most other races significant and present. Don't think that racism is ever escapable though - and I'm talking about people from all sides of the spectrum. What I can say is that if you're nice to people here, they'll pretty much without fail be nice to you. By the way, I'm guessing you're Italian Augustin - Valdese was settled by Waldensian folks from the Italian Alps - so you really might like the culture and heritage here.

[@malcognito7210]

Hi Tony. I don't know if you're still responding to messages on this video, but I've got a question about Morganton because my wife and I are seriously considering relocating there for retirement because we have family there. I notice the guitars and amps behind you. I'm an old (68) blues guitarist that loves to jam. Are there any blues jams happening around Morganton?

[@tonyleeglenn]

Sure are opportunities to play Mal. Lot's of musicians around. I'm in a gigging band now, and it's a challenge. Much opportunity for connecting with other players though. You'll love the area I think.

Tony, I am a native of Marion and lived four years in Morganton in the early 1990s. I also lived in Black Mountain for several years but now I am back in Marion. I can't get over your backhanded comment about Marion and how you passed over it as if there is nothing there at all. Perhaps you should take another look at Marion and see how much we have progressed in the past two years! It is booming now with pubs, a craft brewery, a music halls, shops, a artisan ice cream parlor and lots of public art. We have another brewery, a meadery and a municipal event center in the works. We had our Bigfoot Festival which got nationwide coverage on CNN and NPR. Marion is awesome and keeps moving forward!

Great Video, I agree with most of what you have said. I moved my family to Morganton from Kannapolis/Concord. Yes this is one of the best kept secrets in NC. We live in the South Mountain State Park off hwy 64 side. There is no way we could have built the house we have with the views we have anywhere else in NC. I work in Charlotte and drive there daily and yes it's a ways to drive each day but worth it! Even though the median home price in Morganton is 110k you can get homes in the millions here. We built a 4200sf Log home at 2780ft above sea level in the state park/game lands with views all the way to the black mountains and lake lure. We love the town and the folks we have gotten to know and have slid right into the community. I know more of my neighbors and do more with them (my nearest neighbor is 1 mile away) than i did living in a gated 300+ home community. Food, social gatherings, music (i played TGIF Friday with Rated PG Band) (See videos im the drummer). What a great place and Love 100 Main in Valdese..

[@DES566]

How would you suggest I connect with musicians in that area? By the way, you can watch my KZbin series "Jazz At The Workbench". I have 18 or so videos of improvising on keyboards that I repaired.

You can find affordable places in Asheville if you work in healthcare. Asheville could possibly become the Austin of NC. Morganton is VERY sociopolitically VERY conservative.

Hello I have a similar question. I was thinking about the mountain region maybe around hayesville or similar areas. Are there any land restrictions on what kind of house you can build in north carolina?

[@NorthtoHopeDesert_Hues]

Love this! Thank you! ... We are planning to move to the Southeast in 2 to 3 years. My oldest son and his family plan to move within the next year. ( from Arizona!! ) The declining water tables here have been a growing concern for the past 10 years. We are in a "20 year drought "... but at this point , IMO, it's not a drought anymore. Drought's are a temporary thing . The drought that caused the dust bowl lasted 10 years. Let's face it, this is the "new normal"! I want to have a garden without having a $200. water bill every month all summer. ($40. in the winter) And that doesn't even give us much to show for it. It just keeps everything alive. We are doing a lot of research first. before we sell... *** Anyone want to chime in and let us know what areas to avoid that would be awesome.!! * ( Low crime, clean ground water, good growing soil, not in flood zone and few restrictions. ) We aren't picky ... Lol NW North Carolina, NW South Carolina, SW Virginia, East Tennessee, N. Georgia. At lest an acre. With a creek would be awesome. Under $40,000. a fixer upper. Or torn down, as long as it has hookups so we can live in an RVV or small mobile. We are retired so jobs and schools aren't a concern.

As a South Florida resident who is looking for a retirement area that is also affordable in a beautiful location [hopefully with a mtn view, but not in the mountains (we saw what happened to Gatlinburg area after vacationing there last Fall with the horrible fires)] your videos are very helpful. For some time now, I've felt an inexplicable pull toward the Hickory-Catawba Valley area, although I didn't know anything about it. Also, my son who has an Industrial Engineer degree, is looking for career opportunities to start out in that field. Where do you recommend he look in the Western NC area? Do you have mountain views in your area?

[@tonyleeglenn]

Hey Chalice. There's much industry moving back to the Catawba Valley. I'm betting your son would be able to find a good job here. I'd just have to talk with you to explain some options. The valley is near the mountains. From Morganton you can be in some of the most dramatic vistas in Western NC in about 40 minutes - but still go down to Charlotte in an hour. I live on a low mountain south of Valdese, and can actually see the big buildings of Charlotte 50 miles away. You'd just have to visit some time to see what the area is really like. There are probably at least a dozen families that have moved here since watching my videos. I don't think any one has been sorry. TLG

They hauled 37k lbs of trash out past year and now they have shut it down on certain weekends bc of the overflow of ppl. I'm about at the point in agreeing with having to have permits. Unfortunately most of the ppl who trash the place or cause trouble are not locals. Although I was joking in a way I do feel like it's only getting worse with more ppl coming.
