Not sure where they got the rents from. Maybe not updated as there is nowhere to rent in Boone. Unless a student and they are paying $1000+ for 1 bedroom/bath shared  More

Boone and the High Country's climate is unique to North Carolina and the Southeast. It's cool summers and snowy winters are much more comparable to places much farther  More

The area is beautiful - living in the Blue Ridge Mountains is gorgeous. But .. the views don't pay the bills. Housing is overpriced. You are better off living  More

This is not an easy city to live in. I don't know where you get your data for housing costs, but it's far from accurate. There are no $470.00 studios. People pay $600.00  More

It is not anything like I remember. Keep in mind your waiter most likely has a doctorate. Depending on your lifestyle....it's a blue spot in a RED state.   More

Visited as tourists since 1980. Bought a victorian here in 2015. Thought this was awesome. Turned out awesome on the negative scale. House that old certainly needs work  More
