I was born in Boone, and reside nearby even now. It's super sad, to see how the area has changed. The traffic is horriable! It was said that, upon a neighbor moving within 12 miles of Daniel Boone, he (Boone) then moved, due to needing more "elbow room". Most locals, would rather people stay away.
Yeah I really wish these tourists would buzz off. It’s weird going places like the trash dump and not seeing anyone you know there. Appalachia is dying!!
I respectfully disagree. I've lived in Boone all my life. I've worked at a resort, I've done construction, worked as a maintenance man for apartment buildings, and currently work in the food service industry. None of these jobs, my whole career, would not have been possible without tourists and the University. If all of those people stayed away, the local economy would collapse, very few people would have jobs, the crime rate would skyrocket, and it would be a miserable place to live. Yeah, traffic sucks sometimes, and there are days when I'm sick of people too, but it's better than the alternative.
I live up in Massachusetts and I can't take the high cost of living here. A friend of mine suggested moving to Boone and said it has a New England charm about it. I don't drive and take public transportation everywhere here in the Boston area and I was concerned that Boone didn't offer public transportation. So happy to see your comment!! Is the system good there?
@@jbro8934 It's alright, what little of it I rode. If I remember right it ran pretty late in the evening too. It's a popular system w/the college crowd there & sometimes the buses were crowded. Btw I live not far from you in southern Vermont (Brattleboro)
@@jbro8934 The cost of living and the continuing increase in property costs are just as high in Boone and the surrounding area; plus taxes have been rising out of sight also.
I was in Boone today. I live down the mountain from Boone & I go whenever I need my mountain fix. Boone is beautiful & fun to visit. I lived in Boone for a short time & I loved it. I recommend visiting Boone to everyone. Peace

Great video! The bloopers at the end definitely gave me a laugh. 😅 I was just in Boone/Blowing Rock last weekend. My family loved it! So much so that we made a video of our trip too! Definitely checking out a few of the places in your video next time we go though. Farm Cafe looks so cool!
@MignognaxX i drove up there today to check things out. VERY small place. The university is massive in comparison to the town, so i can understand that. All the students around too, do locals mind them or not?
I disagree! I wouldn't be a local if it weren't for my parents coming to work for App State 30 years ago. Besides, while we are still pretty lacking in diversity, the university makes the place more diverse than it would be. I respect your opinion though, and clearly your an older local that remembers things differently than I do :) Although it has changed a lot in my lifetime and I would like the university to become more prestigious, rather than accepting a greater number of students.
Metro On The Move thanks for the note!!!! Off the top of my head I can’t remember the name of the zip lining folks but I really enjoyed meeting those guys! Also check with the official tourism bureau in Boone...www.exploreboone.com/
