Roanoke, VA


re:
Moving to Roanoke
- 7/28/2018
I lived in Roanoke for 11 years and was a transplant. I worked in the school systems while there. Stay away from Roanoke city schools and look towards Roanoke county schools they are better than Northcross. The neighboring town of Salem has an awesome school system our children went to Cave Spring. We have lived all over the eastern seaboard and my children received one of their best educations here. The area is best suited for someone looking to be active with nature if your from a big city then this prbly not for you. I have lived in NYC and I can see how this would be a culture shock as the concrete jungle was for me. Jobs are hard to find this is why we ended up leaving but I have heard that this is changing. The property tax Ian low compared to others states I lived in. The pay is lower though, too, so know that going into it. The people are friendly and very helpful. They also stop and smell the roses along the way here so be ready for a slower pace of life. If I had a chance to move back I would. In a side note I do not have family living there but my friends I left are considered part of my family as we lived the area and the people immensely. Good luck! If you chose to live ther enjoy the trails and the water falls of the area. Best of all the fall foliage on the Blue Rifge Parkway.
