I’ve lived in North Carolina all my life (55 years), and all I have to say is whoever created this video is OBVIOUSLY not from NC. Most of this information is based on income, job market, and housing cost. There is SO much more to LIVING and LOVING North Carolina than this! All I can suggest if you are debating on moving here, do a LOT of research! The large cities usually aren’t worth the money when it means sacrificing your safety and mental health.

Asheville has the highest cost of living in the state. Housing is in very short supply and is very expensive to say the least. Asheville enjoys the highest water rates in the state along with mostly low paying service jobs. As a native of Asheville, I can say the local government is doing a great job in pricing out the natives and replacing them with transplants!!

Hello from Sanford NC! As the daughter of a career Air Force veteran I can tell you that every state has its charms and it's downfalls. It is up to each individual to decide their own path. Home is where you make it, wherever that may be. I am a frequent visitor to Wilmington and know the areas to avoid, much like my hometown of North Charleston, SC. Charleston and Wilmington are both beautiful with lots to see and do. My parents were both from rural areas of North Carolina and I choose to live in one of those areas that I love. By the way, not one mention of Fayetteville, home to one of the largest military posts in the world. Our population has grown by leaps and bounds but I welcome the men and women who keep us safe. Do not rely on a video to decide where you live, rather get in your car and take a day trip. You might be pleasantly surprised.

I worked with a man from Sanford, Alvin Taylor . I took my youngest daughter & my grandkids to Carolina Beach in 2017 & we came back through Sanford. It has really changed alot ! Siler City & Ramseur have changed a lot too. They don't look like the same places. I like it in the small towns & country sides of NC. Nice to hear from someone in my old stomping grounds.

Couple of things this video does not mention if you are thinking of moving to NC. 1 Yes we have all 4 seasons, often in the same day. There will be days you will want a coat in the early morning, light jacket by mid morning, t shirts by noon, shorts in the afternoon. 2 If you have seasonal allergies get on something. If you have never had seasonal allergies get tested before you come here. If not, come late February or early March, you will be miserable. The pollen season usually lasts into Mid May or early June. 3 Please note, if you do move here you will find most native North Carolinians to be welcoming and friendly. JUST DON'T TRY TO CHANGE THINGS TO HOW THEY WERE WHEREVER YOU CAME FROM. There are reasons we don't do things like they did in Buffalo.

Winston-Salem is my favorite small city in NC. Winston prides itself on the arts, and it’s history. Old Salem, Reynolda, and Tanglewood are unique to the city. The education is good, with graduation rates in the 90 percentile. Not to forget, Krispy Kreme was made here. Winston-Salem is a thriving city and should have been on the List. I also noticed you put the Wake Forest University picture in Wake Forest NC. Wake Forest and the HBCU Winston-Salem State are two famous universities. Winston has everything of a big city, but it’s relatively small.

Don't move to Raleigh, Durham, Wake Forest, Apex or Cary unless you like LOTS of rain and high humidity. Seriously, the humidity is so high in that area that you can actually see mold growing on people's roofs! The area is very vulnerable to hurricanes, and can get tornadoes during severe storms. There's even an article on Wikipedia about the multiple tornadoes that went through the area in 2011, even going through downtown Raleigh. They just had between 5 - 8 inches of rain yesterday in a 24 hr period. They should change the nickname of Raleigh from "City of Oaks" to Rainy Raleigh.

What about the other actual retirement areas in the state like Pinehurst, or some of the other mountain towns near Boone like Banner Elk that I know personally people have retired to? I can't see many people retiring to say Greensboro in particular from somewhere very distant from it.

If you decide to relocate to Asheville, it would be in your best interest to visit it first. There is a severe shortage of housing, and those buying should count on making a cash offer in the high six figure range. Most jobs are in the service industry, making it nearly prohibitive for young, first time buyers to even compete. Rentals are scarce and their prices have skyrocketed in the past year.

Let me go ahead and give you the real info with one sentence for some of the places I, as a North Carolinian am familiar with. 1. Cary - A hotspot for wealthy middle aged to old people to migrate from New Jersey and New York with cops that love to overcompensate 2. Ashville - It truly is nice up there, but the cost of living is extremely high and unlike the triangle, the job market is not nearly as versatile. 3. Charlotte - Great city and all but the traffic is terrible, nuff said. 4. Raleigh/Durham (One sentence for each?) - There are nice places in each but equally rough places as well. It's not uncommon to see homeless people in the park in downtown Raleigh and while Durham no longer has as significant of a crime problem shootings are not uncommon either, I will add however that Durham has recently revamped the downtown area and it is lovely. 5. Apex - Rich suburb home to thousands of Karens and Kyles, we're talking the kind of people who would sue you because their daughter crashed the lexus her daddy bought her into you because she was drunk. 6. Wake Forest - Listen closely video lady Wake Forest University is in WInston-Salem, not in the actual town, Wake Forest. 7. Greensboro - It's boring, not much happening, if you live there than you probably are saving to buy a beach or mountain vacation spot. 8. Wilmington - I like Wilmington, they got a massive drug problem and tourists trash the beaches but its a cool city. 9. Davidson - Only been here once but I consider it the Apex of Charlotte suburbs. 10. Chapel Hill - I'm a Tarheels fan so I'm biased but Chapel Hill at the heart of it is a college town, downtown is full of college students and a lot of the major infrastructure is there because of UNC (Rex Hospital and the like) That's pretty much all of them. Don't get me wrong I love my state and there are tons of great people and places here. The real problem is that through the rising industries in service, tech, medical care and education, many people from the northeastern states like New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and pennsylvania have almost over taken the major towns and cities and it's sort of made NC culturally ambiguous and that can be rather annoying to people like me who were born and raised in NC. If anyone has made it this far I salute you, I don't really know why I'm writing all this, I guess i'm just bored, ok whatever, Bojangles, Pepsi and Krispy Kreme for life baby!

I definitely know what you mean because you can 100% tell when someone is actually from around here and not just another transplant and I will agree NC is still southern, it's just here where I live in wake county it feels like the charm and beauty that was here not to long ago is being suffocated out by people who NC as nothing more than cheap real estate. But trust me when I head down east to Pender county to see my grandparents I'm well reminded of just how southern this beautiful state really is.

phil2u48 what? GBoro is adding nearly 10 people a day, and has nearly a billion dollars worth of new construction and development happening downtown, in 2017-2018 it beat out Raleigh on growth, it’s growing by leaps and bounds with millennials that are causing the housing market to go up, however new companies still continue to go here. Greensboro also has way better shopping. I love Winston and it is growing, but it’s growing at nowhere near the pace of Greensboro and I’ve lived in both, but let’s not live in denial, there is a reason Greensboro has over 300.000 people and why winston is still only 249.000 and why younger people choose Greensboro over Winston.
