Raleigh, North Carolina

[seattle-relo]

My very good friend just moved to Cary and loves it. It’s a beautiful area with good schools and lovely homes. My mother-in-law has lived in Durham for the past 6 years and would never leave. There are some “south” influences, but it’s not as heavy as other deeper south states. Before we moved to San Diego, I really wanted to move there, but my husband wasn’t able to find a job at his level, so we ended up in San Diego. The weather is nice (not as nice as San Diego). Raleigh is an interesting city, but I will say there isn’t as many recreational opportunities as San Diego. It does have a strong sense of community and family values, if that’s what you are looking for. I would definately check out Cary. You can buy a very lovely home for much, much less than here, but I’d wait, their housing market is hurting.

SDHM,

I’m just curious. Can you describe how Carmel Valley is pretentious ? I’m asking because it’s one of the areas I’m considering buying a house in.

I would definitely check out Cary.

Some people in that area say that happiness is working for IBM and living in Cary.

Walk into Ralphs on DM Heights anyday of the week and look how people are dressed which is nicer than I get dressed to go out to dinner at a 4 star restaurant. Then you’ll have your answer.

I am from Northern California and fell in love with a guy from North Carolina. I let him talk me into moving to Chapel Hill, where his company is headquartered.

I hated it. Absolutely hated it. Hated the weather, hated the bugs, strongly disliked the people, and, being an outdoors person, didn’t find much to do outdoors. It just didn’t work for me.

People tell me they really like Cary. I found Cary and Chapel Hill to be one strip mall after another. Good schools so if you have kids I guess that matters most. I don’t have children so I don’t have to be concerned about schools.

I lasted two years. For what we pay here, we could have bought a 5000 sq ft house in Chapel Hill but I was miserable there. I think I am a minority, though. I know LOTS of people who are very happy there.
