Move to these places and you're gonna regret it big time!
Quick! Name the fastest growing states in the country. Florida, Texas, Colorado, yes yes yes. But would you guess North Carolina? It’s true. Due to a moderate climate, relatively low cost of living and TONS of jobs in many areas, this state is boomin, fella.
Lots of people are thinking about moving here, or already have moved here. If you’re one of them, places like the Raleigh metro area, and Charlotte, and along the coast are great picks. Although jobs near the coast are very limited. But there are lots of places in this state where you SHOULD NOT move. That’s what we’re gonna talk about today.
It’s a great state, but North Carolina has some issues, that’s for sure. The old North state has poverty, crime and drugs just like anywhere in this country. Most of this state’s trouble areas share similar things - shootings, welfare, ghetto tracts, and not a lot of opportunities for young families to get started. Nor are they places that you should retire. We’re going to take a look at ten such places. Let’s begin.

Born and raised in NC and this breaks my heart. My family is from King/Rural Hall on my dad’s side and Winston Salem on my mom’s. I was born in Winston but we moved around a lot as my dad was a mobile home salesman when I was a kid & he was the top ranked guy with his company so when a new store was opening, he was made manager and we moved. However, we moved to Whitsett, which is between Greensboro and Burlington, when I was 5 & my mom still lives in the same house to this day…50 years later.

Wilmington NC born and raised. I’m only 25 but I’ve watched tourists and those out of state who relocate completely ruin my small beach town. Now it takes 30+ minutes just to get from one side of town to the other and we have new developments everywhere. And the never ending big businesses have run out many of the local business I knew and loved. So what was once a nice quiet artsy beach town is now full of rich white entitled retirees. It’s so sad I can’t even afford to live in the city I was born and raised. I hate how popular NC has become for retirees.

@9poindexter9 Год назад

I feel your pain. We moved there in 1986 and natives told us THEN that it used to be small town. College Road was 2 lanes from Oleander all the way to Carolina Beach, and Independence Blvd stopped at Shipyard. We moved across country in 2014, although our daughter still lives there. We left due to the frequent tropical systems. Good luck with the overpopulation😔

I grew up in Laurinburg, moved to Charlotte as soon as I graduated college, and lived there until I became a traveling Respiratory Therapist and moved around the country for several years. I had to go back to Laurinburg to live with an aunt when my heart went electrically and anatomically haywire and I could no longer work, after many misdiagnoses, that was fixed, but other parts of my body had suffered the consequences and I was permanently disabled. Now I live in northern NC in Mount Airy. It makes me sad my hometown made this list. I was so ready to get out as a teenager and so set against ever returning, even when forced by illness, but it IS my hometown. I do have great memories of it. Friday night lights at Pate Stadium and the main drag which was Main Street and Atkinson in a big circle.

A lot of areas in NC were previously dependent on tobacco, textiles, and furniture. All three of these industries collapsed on nearly the same curve in the 80's and 90's. If an area was dependent on all three, that area suffered more than most. The Charlotte area had banking to fall back on, and the Raleigh area had tech. It would be nice to see the other areas find their footing once again.

We flew their a year and a half ago. We arrived on a Wednesday and flew home Sunday. Ashville itself, the city was full of Meth addicts and homeless. Also wannabe hippies and artists. We were treated as "strangers" right away. People were not kind or friendly especially women for some reason. The men were better. Every day we drove to different towns; Black Mountain, Hendersonville, Maggieville e.t.c. Hendersonville was about the best out of the lot though it was not my cup of tea. EVERY OTHER TOWN was shockingly horrible. Maggieville was really bad. The main strip of stores was so run down. They all looked out of business. Houses were for sale for $600k! Unreal.

As a former police officer in Charlotte, I can say that crime there is just as bad or worse than or in other cities in NC. Raleigh/Durham same. Americans are looking for Shangri-la but that is a fantasy place. Life just seems to be a series of compromises. The nicer the place the higher the rent. If you can afford to live in the house on the hill, go for it. But, you will live a life of isolation. Choose your poison.

@spiritraps9596 2 года назад

Charlotte is pretty bad depending on where you go, but the real problem is what spreads to other cities from Charlotte. All the drugs go the clt and spreads to other cites.

It's a fact, many went for 5-7 years & played the game in VA & helped them to rebuild their school systems, prisons, etc. We can't allow the same to happen once weed stores are setup & running! This would be the chance for the few family farmers who wants to stay in the business to prosper, especially in the eastern part of the State. Not to mention, it costs a lot to keep folks locked up over marijuana convictions for years upon years.

I worked in Durham during the late 90s/early 2000s. Around 3-4 am into the late hours of the morning for a newspaper redelivering missed deliveries. It was rough, and yes, often dangerous, but it taught me something about "ghetto" neighborhoods, as you so often put it. There used to be an elderly lady who would take us into her home right off the street and offer us refreshments and conversation. We got some of the best tacos we ever had in our lives at about 6 am from a food shack, we ate at local restaurants where we were treated more like a guest at church than an outsider. We interacted with people we may have never come into contact with otherwise, so quick to help us find locations, people that would give you the clothes off their back... And I can tell you this, it taught me bad neighborhoods are most of the time only 2% bad people, everyone else is just trying to get by and mind their own business.

In 2018 I visited & went to the Six forks road exit at the beltline and saw the new development of city blocks that reminded me of Atlanta or even New York. Very beautiful city blocks with condos and shops and all the amenities within walking distance on the bottom floors of these high rise buildings. There r plans 4 more of this development in Raleigh and I can wait to see the transition, but without affecting 2 much green space.

@philhewett1601 3 года назад

Curious, I was born and raised inNC and have lived the greater portion of my life here and I love it. NC is in transition into unknown territory. When I was a boy in the 50s NC was primarily an agrarian society. With modernisation of farm machinery, the loss of tobacco, and corporate agriculture taking over the greater portion of farm land is disappearing, In the North it's the Rust Belt, here in the Bible Belt we have the Rot Belt...farming is rotting. Many of the noted towns and cities in this vid are dying because nothing has come to replace the income structure farming generated. Sadly, these communities will wither and, at best, just a very few people will stay to sustain them. North Carolina will, at some point, rise from the ashes of its lost agrarian life and become a decent place for all of its people. I lived in the thriving metropolis of Aurora on the south bank of the Pamilico river as a boy. It was determined to be dying then, but 65 years later it is still there, despite aspirations of becoming a 'boom town' when Texas Gulf started mining phosphate. Those dreams never manifested. None the less, Aurora is still alive, not a shining star by any means but, still alive. It has potential to grow and thrive in a new century...all the places in you video do too.

@NickJohnson 3 года назад

@aliciaperriott47 3 года назад

Mr. Hewett my mother was born and raised in Blount Creek and lived her last days in Washington, NC. I know Aurora well having spent many summers with my grandparents who were tobacco farmers. There has definitely been development over the years but still has the small hometown feel.

@brentchristine2804 3 года назад

Also from small town NC. You are exactly right- ENC died with tobacco. It left NC farmers nothing profitable to grow that can't be also be grown in the midwest or Idaho on a larger scale. My small town is Princeton, about two hours from your tidewater town of Aurora. It was a mill town in the 1900s, now only I-95 now separates us from the creeping exurbs of Raleigh.

@donaldledbetter2412 3 года назад

I hope we find a way to bring back local independent farming to fill the void left by tobacco. My grandparents shared acreage with the extended family, grew the best tasting peanuts, potatoes, corn, peas, beans. The soil here is great, I buy as much local as is available. I miss planting and harvesting with my family. Small scale but so rewarding in ways money can't buy.

My dad was raised in Salisbury and we went there from the 80’s until late 90’s. It’s sad to hear it portrayed this way. I used to love going there.

It's not its almost the exact same the slightest bit worse

I lived in Black Mountain (east Buncombe county) for a while and watched that quaint little town turn into a tourist attraction and Asheville go in the toilet too. I wouldn't move back to NC for anything these days. It doesn't have the welcoming southern feel anymore.

A lot of the older locals here don't like change and outsiders. One one hand, it''s understandable to have familiarity, but to see what happens to places like High Point when the industry leaves and there's nothing to replace it..... So depressing.

Wasn't High Point ans surrounding areas a large manufacturer of furniture at one time? I heard that so many of the furniture manufacturers moved out or went out of business and it killed the cities. That is so tragic that so many jobs were lost and caused people to lose everything. 😪

@cat740dt 3 года назад

@@kimmyreed9987 you are correct. Thomasville which is just down the road from High Point is one of the last cities here that continues to build furniture

@dominioncrowntv5197 3 года назад

Yep. Highpoint, Thomasville and Lexington were the furniture towns and now not much is left. The future of this state is definitely the research triangle
