Do Not Move to Elizabeth City -
1/26/2021I lived in Elizabeth City for 17 years. It is a depressed area with very little to offer. The schools are very poor, and the crime rate is through the roof. My home was robbed while I was there, and my car broken into 3 times. Aside from the school system, hospital, and Coast Guard there are no good job opportunities. Once I was able to I left and never looked back.

Not what I had hoped for! -
3/7/2007Elizabeth City is an area filled with division and mediocrity. There is a severe education problem. The drop out rate is through the roof. The teen-age pregnancy rate is ridiculous and no one even addresses the issue. There is an AIDS problem. There are so many run-down areas with no apparent hope of revival. In short, it is an area where education is not stressed, dreams are practically non-existent and culture in non-existent. If you are an educated middle-income person DO NOT MOVE HERE!!!!
