Review of Asheville, North Carolina


I'm moving from Texas...Asheville can't be THAT hu
Star Rating - 6/5/2007
Hello - After 4 years of constant heat, we are leaving Houston, TX!

We are leaving the Backed-UP highways which are treacherous..., roaches, mosquitoes, and an over-abundance of Cultures that prefers to camp out on their front lawns barbecuing, parking their 1/2 dozen trucks on the Front Lawn, speeding at 85 in a 65 mph zone, blaring their music on boom boxes with words I don't understand, cutting you off because they don't understand turn signals, and being told that I NEED to learn the language if I want to survive!

Summer begins in April and ends in November - Winter is about a month long and dreary (but the only repreive from hot weather so it's a welcome sight.

There is nothing to do in Houston but shop, eat out, and it's 5th on the scale of most obese state in the country.

So - tell me how Asheville can beat that - I'm sure there are some good things to say from all the complaints I've read.

Thank you,
Juli
