Greenville is a great place. A modern city in the making, Greenville is growing in the foothills of South Carolina. I've never lived there, but I have visited thousands of times. It's a good market for finding a job, buy a home and start a life. There is a good mix of nightlife, shopping and hiking. Not to mention the Bi-Lo Center and Peace Center have great shows. I highly recommed Greenville, or a small town outside of Greenville. Good luck!

I liked it there,it's very nice but I would recommend to go down south coz the people are so much nicer than up north.I would also recommend that you try as many specialties that they cook,it's delicious.Have a nice vacation.

My mom was born there! *wink*\n\nBut seriously, here is a link to some cool stories.\nhttp://www.secstate.state.nc.us/kidspg/legends.htm

Charlotte is a cool place.  I used to live in Columbia, SC and the only thing redeeming about Columbia is that it was only an hour from Charlotte..\nCharlotte has a lot to offer.  It is a mid-sized city with enough culture, sporting events, and restaurants to keep you happy and there's also a pretty  good mix of people.\nI would really suggest going to visit there - I made that mistake before I moved to Columbia - I only visited for a short time and I saw *ALL* of the really cool little spots the first time so I made an erroneous decision that Columbia was pretty cool in itself.  I should have stayed longer and met some people... \n\nIf I were you I would make a list of all of the things that I love about Detroit and LA and see if Charlotte has most of those things.  I really wish I would have done that when I moved from Atlalnta to Cola.  It would have helped me see things in a more objective way.\nBy the way, Yankees are fine with us.... as long as you don't tell us how ya used to do it up north... :)\nIf Charlotte isn't big enough we'd love to have you in Atlanta I'm sure.

I love it.  But I go there.\n\nLots of different people, (different then what I'm used to), college town atmosphere, lots of events, lots of spirit, a "best buy", great people, helpful professors, and much more.\n\nI'd be happy to tell you more about it.

check the crime rate, check the school standing nationally, check the neighborhoods, check the local tax rate. what about the seasons?  without these numbers it is too difficult to decide. you say fiance, do you want kids, how friendly is the new place to kid and family activities? is the birth hopital good? \nIt is always good to try something new, but it has great risk. You know these jobs, you know these people, what about the new ones? Can you come back if you change your mind? if the new place is awful? Will you be losing any major benefits like health care or pensions?\nAvoid declining states like Ohio, land poor states like Hawaii, or incredibly money poor states like Nebraska and Tennessee (average income is less than 30,000, to name only a few). No matter what state, there are towns that will never accept a newcomer as a local. That means police harrassment for anything and everything. Example, setting trash out for pick up too early or not keeping your lawn the requisite three and one half inches tall...  (I have lived in each of these places so please don't be a hater, I wasn't a local, I didn't know the "rules" and have a bad taste in my mouth from these places, I actually still live in one of the states listed) \nIt is worth a bit more research, the more that you look, you will find a concrete answer to what you ask by finding something important to you. Also, checking the top ten lists of metros will help. (kid friendly list, crime rate list etc.)Trust me when I say the numbers and risks and benefits are not the same when you dig far enough down.\nYou may want to stay, you may want to go, but your digging will show you everything that you have maybe missed doing where you are before you leave.

I live in the south, South Carolina to be exact.  Its about the cheapest place, and about the safest too.\n\nWe don't have hostels.  You would have to get an apartment or hotel.  You can get a hotel for between $130 and $250/wk depending on where you stay. You could get an apartment for anywhere between $350-$550, but then you still have to pay the bills.  Hotels tend to be a better deal.  They have long-term stay discounts you can get.\n\nFood can be as cheap as you want it to be.  Our state mandated daily food reembursement (the amount of money employees can receive for food each day if they are out of town for work) is $32, and that's more than enough money.  Just depends on what you want to spend.  And most people don't need 3 meals a day either.  For a month, if you bought groceries to keep in your hotel, you could make it off $200. (I don't know what the guy that answered earlier is eating for $60/month.  My dog eats more than that.)

I would suggest you come over for a holiday so you can check out the property scene and the areas in general.  Depending on the job you might want to live just outside Edinburgh - property is much cheaper and, if you think it out, the commute is not bad (many companies are now location outside the city centre anyway).\n\nEdinburgh has the same issues as most major cities - you just need to check the culture fits with how you want to live.\n\nOne point that I cannot stress enough - unlike the poster above DO NOT (I repeat) DO NOT refer to the Country as England ... this is a massive bugbear to Scottish people and actually quite insulting (think of calling someone from the deep south a Yankee [then multiply the insult by 10!).\n\nI am sure you know but the whole country is Great Britain/UK, with England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales making up the different parts.  \n\nEdinburgh is in Scotland and the UK, Edinburgh is not in England\n\nGood luck with it - drop me a note if you need any more.

I recently visited Ashville, NC, and feel in love with it.  The town is a hopping town with nightly activities and concerts, shops, restaurants, and there are a lot of young single people around there.  Good luck!

I work in the general area of Mayfaire.  It is North Raleigh, and there are good things and bad things about living in North Raleigh.\n\nBut the area is generally nice - mostly wooded subdivisions and apartment complexes and mixed use (small office and retail).  It is clean and safe.  Traffic can be difficult, but if you're living anywhere near the city in NY, it will seem light to you.\n\nThe apartment complex is clean and new.\n\nYou probably don't want to live there if you are working in South Raleigh, or east of town.  But it is fairly close to 540, offering good access to RTP and areas west.

in terms of cost of living, it is slightly higher than anywhere else in Scotland.  I was a student in Edinburgh and couldn't stand the prices, so i moved to Glasgow and commuted, worked out cheaper.

Pittsburgh is cold in the winter but not too hot in the summer, no hurricane or earthquake to worry about, your day is more relax , not crowded, a few places to hang out, the city is unique, a lot of bridges and overpass.\nIf you plan to settle down and raising a family, this is a family oriented city, not too expensive to live, good school system, this is a family oriented city.\nIf you are nightlight, party, trying out new thing couple, this is not for you, there is not.\nI hope this help you in some what, Good luck to you!!!!!!!!!!!

Best job opportunities are in the Triangle (Raleigh / Durham / Chapel Hill), and Triad (Greensboro / Winston-Salem) areas.  But, of course, cost of living is high there.  (Unless you're willing to commute from outlying communities - public transport is virtually non-existent, and roads are painfully congested.)\n\nI live in Wilson (east of Raleigh); cost of living is definitely lower, and employment opportunities are OK.  Rocky Mount and Greenville are close to Wilson (30-min drive), and have comparable costs & opportunities.\n\nWhat sort of work do you need?\n(High-tech & engineering work can be hard to find outside of Charlotte and the Triangle.)
