Franklin, NC
re: Franklin is not for anyone other than natives! -
5/30/2014You might want to check out other cities in North Carolina. Raleigh/Durham for one. I live in the Charlotte area. It is also very discriminating as far as finding employment, however, I have finally located a really good company to work for. Charlotte is a beautiful are, and there are many, many New Yorker's living here. You might want to come down the mountain and check it out.

re: You Either Hate or Love Franklin, NC - 5/31/20 -
5/30/2014Thank you very much for your honest evaluation of the town of Franklin, N.C. I moved here to Charlotte, N.C. from New England some eight years ago now, and I don't really care for it here,but it isn't that bad either. I had far more devoted believers at home, (Up North) than you will ever find here in the supposed "Bible Belt." It's baloney. Charlotte is so highly and over taxed, backwards, they don't give a hoot about the public at all. I just finally found p.t. employment with a good company, after being discriminated over and over, b/c I am from the North, and I am white, and educated. The illiteracy is very high here, and the only people who are given employment are illiterate, uneducated young people! It is a beautiful area, and the climate is above a 10 score. I do much better in a warmer climate, but the discriminating attitudes is a big hurdle to get past. There are many, many New Yorker's here. You might want to try it here, But beware of high taxes. The unemployment problem is country wide, so I don't fault any state for that. You might find a decent location here in Charlotte, like the town of Matthews, and find other fellow New Yorker's in your neighborhood.
