Some people go on and on about charlottesville, whatever's there i have no idea except UVA. Chapel Hill and Apex are my 2 choices because they're not as "factory driven" as you pointed out. I am going to visit these places soon with Aimee. I'm hoping Chapel Hill has some random "old money" type people like the ones in norfolk that live in these $1 to $2M houses in ghent, the old weirdo ladies that spend hundred of dollars on trinkets at texture. We shall see. thanks for the input :)Jugehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04045079619478800810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2052789673566745108.post-83183293720592743892009-02-27T13:44:00.000-05:002009-02-27T13:44:00.000-05:00I meant Charlotte that whole time. i know you know...I meant Charlotte that whole time. i know you know what i meant. fuck.luey hollandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01868792239443766747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2052789673566745108.post-19809706172188245862009-02-27T09:31:00.000-05:002009-02-27T09:31:00.000-05:00FYI I know Charlottesville wasn't a choice but it ...FYI I know Charlottesville wasn't a choice but it was my own personal suggestion.<BR/><BR/>I would take a serious look at all of these town's local economies. See what is the top employer of the area and if it's sustainable enough to last through these time. You don't want to move to a place where most of the people work in factories that are on the verge of closing or being bailed out.luey hollandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01868792239443766747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2052789673566745108.post-7960498313591624812009-02-27T09:27:00.000-05:002009-02-27T09:27:00.000-05:00I will not suggest you move anywhere except for ba...I will not suggest you move anywhere except for back into my arms. <BR/><BR/>but Charlottesville, Wilmington, or Chapel Hill are all great places. I however, would suggest Charlottesville because it is more metropolitan and your business will be more successful there. Wilmington may be to seasonal and Chapel Hill would be a parallel move since you already live in a college town and you know college kids don't have money to spend on crafts.luey hollandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01868792239443766747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2052789673566745108.post-49260571204607710822009-02-25T18:31:00.000-05:002009-02-25T18:31:00.000-05:00Live some where with a low median home price, and ...Live some where with a low median home price, and low average age, with high percentage of college degrees. Those communities will be where you want to live. Age and college degrees are the best signifiers of the "creative class" who will be a much better set of neighbors for someone like you. <BR/><BR/>Also, don't neglect the city size. A larger base population also gives you more opportunities to find interesting activities, as well as forming a larger consumer base for any potential business you might do. Research Triangle's Metropolitan Statistical Area is about 1.3 million and Norfolk's MSA is about 1.7 Million.<BR/><BR/>Since most of these are in the same areas, don't worry about your home location for where you'll run a business. You can easily travel 45 minutes or an hour to get to an arts festival, if you're so motivated. If you're getting into crafts, you can sell on consignment across the entire metropolitan area.<BR/><BR/><BR/>You've probably seen these links but:<BR/>Money 2008 Top 100 Places to Live:<BR/>#16 Cary: http://money.cnn.com/magazines/moneymag/bplive/2008/snapshots/PL3710740.html<BR/><BR/>#65: Chapel Hill: http://money.cnn.com/magazines/moneymag/bplive/2008/snapshots/PL3711800.html<BR/><BR/>Money 2007 Top 100 Places to Live:<BR/>#14 Apex:<BR/>http://money.cnn.com/galleries/2007/moneymag/0707/gallery.BPTL_top_100.moneymag/14.html<BR/><BR/>#22 Holly Springs: http://money.cnn.com/galleries/2007/moneymag/0707/gallery.BPTL_top_100.moneymag/22.html<BR/><BR/>#65 Mooresville: http://money.cnn.com/galleries/2007/moneymag/0707/gallery.BPTL_top_100.moneymag/65.htmlJeff Jacobshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03213940580342798471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2052789673566745108.post-45704972188945259552009-02-25T15:10:00.000-05:002009-02-25T15:10:00.000-05:00i think it should be the one closest to your siste...i think it should be the one closest to your sister and rest of your family.
