And to top it off, people who move here from places like NY, PA, IL don’t come with the intent to acclimate, NO they bring all their rudeness and impatience.......so yeah, Raleigh used to be nice, but it is not the same place. I remember when I first moved here, people would say please, Thank You, Good Morning, etc.....NOW that’s slowly dwindling away. Anyways, Raleigh is fast becoming just like any other metropolitan city. Move to Raleigh, but don’t be surprised when you move here. It used to be the place to live, but no longer is that the case.

I live with my wife in an apartment in Downtown, lease is not bad, around 1200 and I can commute on a daily basis to my work in RTP, I'm a Software Developer. Durham changed a lot, immigration was positive for the economy of the zone that it moved from being around the Tabaco to IT and Healthcare industries. Keep in mind that in terms of political views, the Triangle is very liberal while the rural areas around it are very conservative. This is changing more and more because even those who used to be very conservative are seeing the recent economic benefits and the continuous development of this area.

Thanks for the video! I live in California and have considered relocating in the future and Raleigh is one place that a few people have reconnected. I have a colleague retiring in the next six months and she’s moving to chocowinity and she told me all about North Carolina about it’s cost of living, low tax rates, job market increases, and the weather is really nice, etc. I recently visited Seattle which I liked but definitely looking into North Carolina. I am planning a visit to Raleigh in the future to check it out. Can I email you/contact you if I have further questions?

I wish black Americans had my mentality. I for one am not looking for "diversity". I'm looking for affluent or middle class BLACK NEIGHBORHOODS. Is Raleigh like this? DC and Atlanta can't be the only places in the country that has what I'm looking for.

Are you still in real estate? I need help. Stuck btwn Raleigh or Charlotte or being on the outskirts. I'm looking to move to the area in the next 8-12 months. I know where ever my job will be located will be a determining factor for where I'll live. However, I want to get a geographical idea of safe,nice, affordable ($900-$1200) complexes/townhomes. These are some cities that I've been told to consider: Apex, Gastonia, Concord, Cary (I dont think it would be a good fit), Chapel Hill, Gardner, and Winston-Salem. I want easy accessibility to shopping malls and restaurants. A dwntwn area with these things would be nice too. I dont want to drive outside the area for these amenities. Also, a strong black history presence as well as AA population (more than 15%) is important too. I want to be close to beauty supply stores and blacked owned businesses/restaurants. Basically, a urban city feel but not in the city? I guess? If this even exists. 🤦🏽♀️

Detroit is as bad as some say. But it's really cold in the winter. Middle Easterners have taken over all the store and eateries!! Gas stations. In the copy they sell very low quality items. The meat counters always smell like dead horse. Since so many folk lost their jobs and walked away from mortgages, starting in 2007... The beautiful two brick colonial and bungalow homes are gutted... Or rentals. Rent is ridiculously high. If you want to like near major shopping... You won't do it in the city. You will pay huge monthly payments to be near clearer areas and major shopping. It's so much!!
