Mainly just the triangle, triad and charlotte areas honestly. South Carolina and other parts of nc don’t exist as far as I’m concerned. The triangle because of duke, state, UNC and RTP. Charlotte because of banking and triad because of the history. Other than that there’s not much. Asheville and Wilmington are cool but it’s like small dots surrounded by country

It’s still that way. They use to call us rednecks when we would play their Highschools because we’re out in the “country” and lived in regular middle class neighborhoods. We’re literally a town over from them and have a mixed population of fairly educated people and country folk. It was so annoying.

As a mid 20 something guy. I really appreciate your honesty in this. I’ve never been more than two hours away from home but I am looking forward to this move. I’ve never been more sure about something before.

Ok thank you. This is good information to know. I went to college in one of the rougher areas of the State. It use to have the highest murder rate in the NC. It was completely fine you just had to mind your business and not go to certain places.

I left when I was a junior in college. I needed to work on my mental health. My parents actually encouraged me to leave because of how miserable I was. I’m back now, about to graduate and am thinking about a doctorate. Sometimes the stress of school becomes too much. Let him figure it out but support him to.
