I haven't been there in over a year or so, so not sure what things are looking like right now. But I liked it. Your dollar will go a long way real estate wise in NC. You can get a lot of home for less than you would pay on the national average. Couple hours from the mountains, few hours to the beaches in NC & SC.

So yeah. I like it.
