I long to go back to NC. One of my favorite places and I have been all over the world. I think someone already said it but "Quality" of life is different down there. Charlotte and Raleigh are both turning into large cities, lots of growth and lots of room to grow. I think I saw where you are an audio installer. I'd suggest Charlotte, Raleigh, Durham, maybe Greensboro. They have the largest populations and would probably offer you the best job choices. I know there are multiple shops all over Charlotte, two sports teams in Charlotte too. Or you can live right across the border in SC, still good schools, cost of living is a little cheaper, but you are still close enough to use the benefits of the Queen City.
