What do you want to know?

I know the economy is booming there. What else do I need to know? Just tell me everything you think is of importance.

It isn't.

The economy is ok. Unemployment is lower here than other parts of NC, but it's not great.

Good universities, good tech companies, good hospitals, schools, good standard of living, traffic sucks in rush hour, good beer selection at the right stores, our governor is a c*nt, nightlife is not bad, not too much crime, the Hurricanes suck... ask me something specific.

Bumping this older thread.

Me and my buddy are about to take the plunge and just move down and say f'uck it. Just wing it.

Any apartment suggestions? We are looking for 2 bedrooms in the $600 range. Preferably allowing dogs but not mandatory.

Anybody have recommendations?

[1quick1]

My other buddy just moved down there a month ago. So we are pretty much for sure.

[x ShAnE x]

Does Charlotte, NC count?

You know my buddy moved on a street that has a couple houses open. 3 bed room 2 baths, yard, fireplace, etc. for $750 a month + utilities.

Yea works for me.

[astarr22]

I go there every once in a while to visit. I usually hang out around the NC State area and always have a good time. Seems legit. No idea what it's like to live there though.

[Angra_Mainyu]

i go there a lot but live 2 hours away. pretty cool place. Im going to a show there on february 19th

[echo117]

<---- from raleigh

it's not bad here can't complain.
theres always stuff to do.

[tarheelblue0378]

ehh, dunno if you can really find a decent apt for 600 in raleigh. you cant even really do that here, and im sure the cost of living is a lil more in raleigh. good luck though

EDIT: like the other guy said, look into cary, bout 15 mins away from raleigh depending on exactly where, and somewhat of a nicer city as well. from what ive seen of cary that is

[Fist-Of-Freedom]

I loved NC when I visted, I'm going to move there one day.

[1quick1]

Thanks for all the comments guys.

I see a ton of them for the 600 range. I have my buddy who just moved there who's going to scope a few out for us and let us know what they are like.

[primal21]

Raleigh brah here

[liv2bfit]

I live in Fayetteville. Bout an hour and a half away. Its the armpit of NC

[jkbutler]

I'm from Benson, home of the Mule Days (yes redneck) which is about 25 minutes away, but i sell corn at the farmers market in raliegh every summer so that has got to count for something. Make the move brah, its got to be better down here than up there, worse come to worse I could give you a job picking corn, hahaha

[1quick1]

If anyone has any job connections please let me know. I'm in I.T. at my hospital doing helpdesk work now but my associates (and my nearly completed bachelor) is in Business Management. I have retail store management experience. I'm looking for any connections I get cause I'm just going down their and straight up winging it. If I have to work 80 hours a week in fast food I will til I can find something better.

You know man, I will entertain ALL job opportunities at the moment. I'm not afraid of manual labor at all.
