Asheville, NC
Horrid nightmare -
2/24/2016Don't do it, don't do it. Don't DO IT. There are so many better places to live in the United States that are not filled with people who are overly depressed, rude and common thieves. Especially if you are a single female. The native people will rip you off every chance they get, from heating oil to basic food to gas etc. The weather is nasty and cold and cloudy most of the year. Summer is filled with humidity, bugs and snakes. Spiders will be in your home daily. Your news is from South Carolina and believe me, it has not changed at all. Like living in 1940. Don't believe the hype they put out on the internet. These folks should be main lining vitamin D. The medical is horrible, most of the pet vets will rip you off royally including/especially the emergency pet clinic. There are only about two vets that are good and fair. Lots of coyotes, so pets go missing. Natives are not friendly at all. And all the services you will need to keep you home in shape will charge you astonishing rip off prices. You won't have a lot of choices. I have lived in four states and seven other cities. This is by far the worst place you could ever choose to live. They hate change... hence Merrimon avenue; the stupidest street in the world, everything is over priced because they hate outsiders and feel that somehow you owe them for all their discontent in life. If you are by yourself, it will be a thousand times worse. There are no four seasons, lie, lie, lie. There are no friendly people, so forget that internet list and the food isn't that great either. When it is good, you are going to pay like you lived in one of the larger cities in the country for small quantities of food. I could go on and on. Just love yourself and don't go there to live. It is all an illusion especially if you are from the western parts of the country where there is sunshine and decent people, not hillbillies killing bears and throwing cigarette butts on your property while they claim to be working at a rate of 250.00 an hour. Go anywhere but this nasty place. If you do go, check every credit card receipt and get everything in writing and at least four to five bids and may God help you to have the strength to leave that nasty, nasty place. And if you must... welcome to the land of spiders and snakes!
