Charlotte vs Raleigh
-
8/20/2006
I currently live in the Washington DC metro area and I am considering a move to North Carolina. I currently work as a teacher and will continue to do so in North Carolina. I am curious as to what others may think of the differences between Charlotte and Raleigh? Potential advantages/disadvantages of each?
I have lived in Nashville in the past and enjoy the size and laid-back mentality of the city. However, due to the lack of job growth and the growing crime rate, I do not desire to make a move back to the Nashville area. Washington DC has excellent job potential, but is unbelievably crowded and ridiculously overpriced. I feel that I am seeking an area that lands somewhere between the two of these cities.
Where do both Charlotte and Raleigh rank in terms of quality of life? Would you recommend one over the other? Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
