Great video! Very well might consider Morehead NC😂
Noted 😅
Jacksonville was my hometown when I was a kid. Moved out when I was 12, currently going on 24. I wanna at least go back someday just to see what the place is like now. There’s so much about my hometown that I feel like I never really took in because I was a naïve kid.
It’s become a pretty awesome place honestly. I’m sure it’s much different
Morehead. "Get More Head in North Carolina". The ad sort of writes itself.
HAHA!
Newly retired and thinking of moving to the area.
Congratulations!!!! Let me know if I can help with anything at all. I’m always available (910) 541-4088 LiveJacksonvilleNC@gmail.com

I lived here 14 years now, as military child living here its very military oriented and family oriented which makes it a safer more peaceful town without much crime which is nice. But the last few years so many people from other states moved here like some military people but also a lot of just people in general. Its overpopulated now. Like i used to be able to go anywhere around anytime anyday and it was peaceful and not that busy. But in the past 3 years its like a mass exodus to here from else where for people. Its kinda annoying tbh. I didn’t like hate living here even though it is boring and not much to do. But it being quiet and not busy made it worth living here but now its just boring and overpopulated. Everytime i go anywhere everything is always sold out or like busy as heck.
One big Zoo filled with wild monkeys, tigers, lions and giraffes! If I wanted to live in the zoo I would go to one!
just spent the weekend at Lake Canandaigua, place is amazing !!!!!!
Haha that’s awesome!! Are you from Wilmington or surrounding areas?
the water is very bad, drinking water polluted in the Wilmington area.
I know it at least used to be. I’ve seen some studies saying that it’s been fixed for a while. What is your experience with that water quality?
I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.
I feel your pain mate, as a fellow retiree, I’d suggest you look into passive index fund investing and learn some more. For me, I had my share of ups and downs when I first started looking for a consistent passive income so I hired an expert advisor for aid, and following her advice, I poured $30k in value stocks and digital assets, Up to 200k so far and pretty sure I'm ready for whatever comes.
@@Elliot-Ivan That's actually quite impressive, I could use some Info on your FA, I am looking to make a change on my finances this year as well
@@FernandoBowen-78 My advisor is VICTORIA CARMEN SANTAELLA;
You can look her up online
@@Elliot-Ivan The crazy part is that those advisors are probably outperforming the market and raising good returns but some are charging fees over fees that drain your portfolio. Is this the case with yours too?
We've lived here for 9 yrs...your pros and cons are very accurate! We are from upstate NY and actually stayed up there an extra year after we purchased our place down here because I wasn't ready to give up the money I was making in NY. It took me 6 yrs to find my niche' here workwise, but we love Wilmington.
I appreciate your comment!! What part of upstate ny? I’m from Canandaigua Lake area! It’s definitely a shocker to see the income gaps… now we’re getting a ton of remote workers!
@@livejacksonvillenc Ahhhhhhh...the Finger Lakes! Beautiful! We are from the Albany area...certainly don't miss the snow!!
If you like Golf, I would not recommend moving to Wilmington. In the last few years they’ve torn down two courses and put up more developments. It’s next to impossible to get a good tee time unless you want to drive 50* miles towards Myrtle Beach.
Fair enough! Thank you for the comment, that’s good info for the golfers out there!
The area is way over crowded now and too expensive for what you get. Bumper to bumper traffic everywhere you go. When I am able to move, I certainly will.
A lot of people do say that and I appreciate the honesty, it certainly helps people make their decision. Please let me know if I can help with anything 👍🏼
Don’t move to Wilmington, glad if you stay away from Wilmington.
Thanks for comment Nick.
kid is jumping over the rails???
What do you mean?
I'm looking to rent a 2 bedroom in NC. I don't know where to start looking. Can you recommend a good area near shopping and restaurants?

Im a mail carrier in jersey and a requested a transfer to wilmington and a few other towns near by.. so im hoping i get it soon and with my wife working from home its a no brainer

Please tell your viewers about the area being the most PFAS contaminated area in the nation!!!

Camp Leujune???? Toxic?
It used to be - I don’t know about it anymore - they say it’s been completely fixed, but I have no clue as the validity
No way would I live in Maysville or Holly Ridge. 2 boring areas that has nothing. Maysville has atleast a Piggly wiggly.
I personally don’t like maysville - but I live in Holly ridge and I love it. Close to surf city and Sneads ferry, yet very affordable and nice neighborhoods.
@@livejacksonvillenc I am not trying to be a Internet troll but there is no way I would recommend Holly ridge. I even spoke about this with people that grew up here like myself and every single person said no way would they recommend living there. I would have suggested Hubert or Swansborro before even thinking of Maysville and Holly ridge.
As a civilian living in jville the job market is horrible. You are competing with military wives or husbands that just want to get out of the house and don't demand higher pay.
so did you even go to EI??? you know NOTHING about EI . I lived there for 25 years, so comming here from Jacksonville as a 20 yo Marine you know NOTHING. shut the F---- up
Wow this is a bit harsh. I’m not sure what makes you think I don’t know anything about Emerald Isle? I work in EI all the time - I think you’re assuming a lot about my story.
Spot on vid
Thank you for watching!!
My husband and I are in our 40s. We moved from a big city in Texas to the Wilmington area. Cost of living isn't vastly different in my opinon. We kind of leveled out and still pay around what we used to in our day to day/ month to month spending. The home prices are just as expensive here as they were in the big city we came from. Taxes and other living expenses aren't so different that we noticed saving a ton here now that we live here. One thing that was jarring to me is how much slower and relaxed life is here. That isn't a bad thing. We came from highspeeds on the road ways and fast paced work environments to a very chill slow day to day life. The surrounding areas actually slow down and go to bed by 8pm. It's weird to be out at 9pm and not beable to find much open by that time. We have to be sure to pick up dinner semi early before resturants close. I personally like that about living out here. You can go in your backyard and actually see stars. Businesses aren't open to blind out the night sky. On a negative though this area is a job desert. It's hard to find a good paying job that isn't remote. You'll be pulling in around the 60K range and MIGHT beable to pull in 70-80K with both you and your partner working. I see it more consistant in the 60 to 70k though. What's bad about that is it makes for local income being less than the incomes of people transplanting here. So you find that affordability is really for those who don't actually depend on a local job to be here.
Amazing comment! Thank you so much for your feedback and I’m glad that you love it here. It definitely is a change from other areas of the US but in a lot of ways, a good change. Costs are certainly comparable to a lot of areas and it sounds like it’s comparable to where your from in Texas - but I know a lot of my clients (including myself) moving from northern states that are saving a lot of money. Eitherway, we love living here! Thanks so much for your comment and support and please let me know if I can ever help with anything 🙏🏻
Surf City is fabulous so fab that we purchased a home there with a great ocean view and a 2 minute walk to the beach. The best view is at the top of the bridge , when you get there its like pretty color houses with the ocean in the background. Home ownership on an island can be expensive, maintaining can get costly, all the insurance costs especially flood insurance is costly. Yet any expense is worth it. Most of our neighbors either live there full time or do not rent their homes out, so that is also really nice, we all watch out for each other and and each others homes. East Coast sports you said was a big box, lol, it is a large store but it is not a chain. It is a great place to live or visit .
Amazing input thank you so much!! We said east coast sports is the closest thing we have to a big box store on the island but obviously it’s just a big , locally owned, store that carries a lot of great products. I love this area so much and the maintenance is worth it for the lifestyle!! Let me know if I can ever help with anything 🙂
I retired from USMC and Camp Lejeune was my last duty station, J-ville is trash PERIOD, slow, tired and definitely backwards. The civilians that work on base (some) are racist as hell!!!!
Moved here 22 years ago from CT. Taxes are about a third what I was paying. Locals don't have a problem with people coming here - that's ridiculous. They don't care. Too into yourself. It's a very popular city that is growing fast because it has so much to offer. People don't come here to get a job, they come because of great food, great beaches, great neighborhoods and usually great weather.
Appreciate your comment and thank you for watching! Regarding the locals - I’m not too into myself, go into any youtube videos comments and see what the locals say. They love to tell people not to move here. In any case, I agree about not moving here because of a job - wilmington has so much to offer and mostly everybody loves it here! 👍🏼 let me know if I can ever help with anything 🙂
❤ hampstead!!😅
Ocean City...... more history and substance than the other beaches you mentioned. Everybody knows about it, EXCEPT YOU....apparently!
Haha believe me, I understand the history behind it… i speak in terms of real estate and find me a single real estate listing that has “ocean city” pop up on it. There’s not one. My videos are for people relocating here and if you watch my other videos, I share a bit about history. But I’m not a history teacher, I’m a realtor and I tell people what they can expect from the areas they live. I didn’t say it disrespectfully by any means but apparently some people are offended, so I apogize that you took it the wrong way!
Praise Jesus Christ! I spent this past "Father's Day Week " with my adult daughters and grandson their in a beach house. We had an amazing vacation. I recommend Emerald Isle as a great place to visit. God bless.
Of course you will like it here if you are European. There is a nefarious history (City on Fire: 1898). I grew up here 70 years, left for a career in the 70s and returned for duties as caregiver. This is the perspective of persons who live life in privilege, and I get that but to those of you of color or that care about "diversity" this place may disappoint.
😂😂😂😂
Just moved here from San diego. 😅I'm literally BORED everyday 😭
Have you tried the beach? 😂 there actually is quite a bit to do
I grew up in Jacksonville. I love my hometown but there just isn’t enough job opportunities there. I ended up moving around the triangle area. It is great if you are retired and want to live somewhere close to the beach for an affordable price.
That’s all true man. I have a question though, why not invest in the area??
@@livejacksonvillenc the money came after I graduated from college not before haha
I live in eastern North Carolina I go to Morehead City to get on a fishing boat wonderful
That’s awesome!! Do you charter?
@@livejacksonvillenc I go on the captain's Stacy
Very nice boat nice people too
Nursing jobs??
Healthcare is one of the largest sectors here. Whether it’s a local hospital, family practice or at the naval hospital, I bet you’ll be able to find a decent job!!
The influx of people that moved into Wilmington over the last 10+ years has pretty much ruined the chill college beach town I once knew. Want to find a parking spot at the beach? Better be there at 6 am. Want to not be stuck in traffic? Better not drive until 8pm. Want to get good service like I used to be able to? Forget it you’re just a number now unless you are dealing with a local. However I don’t let that bother me this is still my city and you are correct we don’t like the implants unless they are chill like us. It’s just crazy how some people move here and think they own the city now. Crazy drivers hurrying to get no where causing accidents every day! Body shops backed up for months what does that tell you? Thinking of moving here and finding a job? Better think twice. Bottom line don’t move here we are full for real and all the tourists need to stay away too 😂
I appreciate your perspective lol
Jacksonville NC sucks, You cant find a job unless your a teenager or former military.....
I wouldn’t say it sucks but definitely a difficult job market
You may want to modify this video. There are NO golf carts allowed in Brunswick Forest, nor are there 30 restaurants.
You’re right - somebody told me that golf carts are allowed and I should’ve fact checked. And also about 30 restaurants. There are 30 around the neighborhood but not in the neighborhood - I definitely misspoke (I’m human). Thank you for watching!
Did you forget the massive drug problem in Wilmington!!!
Yeah there is a drug problem everywhere right now.. but unfortunately those stats don’t come up on the public sites I use, so I can’t spew off that info otherwise my license could get taken away. I have definitely heard it is an issue though.
Yes! I am glad you touched on this. I was a Chaplain in Wilmington, NC during my residency. The drug problem was horrendous! Worked at New Hanover Regional Medical Center. I decided I did not want to relocate there and not continue to stay once my Chaplaincy Residency was completed.
@@renerice5115 thank you for the recount of your experience 🙏🏻
My wife and I have been living in Wilmington Porters Neck area for 22 years having come from the frozen tundra called Connecticut. The biggest negative now is the over development; there are dozens of new apartment complexes, new houses squeezed into every possible lot and so forth. There must be eight bejillion new car washes and storage facilities marring the view on the main roads. Still a great place despite all that.
Yes there definitely is a ton of development and a lot of neighborhoods are being squeezed it. Pretty soon wilmington is going to have to start “building up”. Lots of car washes and storage for the influx of people! Haha I still love it here. Thank you for your comment 🙏🏻
Highway 17 is getting a lot more crowded. You actually have bumper-to-bumper traffic at some of the day. Where as a year ago if I saw five cars on the highway at the same time, it was a lot.
Hopefully DOT can move faster!
As a recent new resident things sort of balanced themselves out. If you’re moving from a northern State You will like the fact that your real estate taxes like mine went from 12,000 to 5000. My auto insurance went from 6000 to 1900.Eating out is way way so much affordable that you will find yourself eating out a lot more. sales tax on a brand new car is only in the 3% range. Unlike 7 to 8 in the northern states. I gained 17 pounds in my first year moving down here you are absolutely correct. Food and drinks are so much cheaper. It’s not even worth cooking at home.
1000% agreed! Welcome to the area and let me know if you ever need anything 🙂 but thank you for shedding light on this info!
I was born at Onslow Memorial Hospital in Jacksonville, NC and have lived there for all of my life. I love and hate it, Im currently in Laramie, WY for college, but i would love to return, both of my parents were in the USMC and decided to stay after they were stationed st Camp Lejeune.
That’s amazing! Thanks for your input and hope that you can make you way back some day!
Don't get upset. Just a suggestion since so many high end prospects are from out of state.. One other thing, Sir, I have dealt with 100's of Real Estate agents from here to NY, tothe midwest to Califronia and beyond and most, close to all dress up...Talking about sport coats, nice slacks. Not like someone just coming from a workout, etc..Dress to your prospect's values, may it be NY, CA, or local..... One other thing, Sir. Last year we called a local agent who believed he was a legend in his own mind about selling our home. He asked what we thought we would get..Told him (over one million dollars) and said we would never, never get it...He did not even want to see our property which was decorated by a real Pro! Well one week later we sold the home for over 1.1 million dollars and in just one day on the market. The point, Sir. Never assume anything in your profession. Dressing appropriately especially for a specific market/prospect may be something you should consider. Just an idea from someone who was in business sector for over 65 years. By the way, I am originally from New State....
Oh, I’m not upset at all! 10000%. There are a ton of realtors that talk the talk. They can’t deliver and they know it. I think if you ever met me (which I would love to do sometime) you would see my professionalism. I’m laid back, I don’t wear suits and ties anymore BUT I am darn good at what I do and my track record says so - but most importantly, my clients get what they’re looking for. At the end of the day, if a suit coat is what someone is looking for, I’m not their guy. But if a true professional Real Estate Broker who gets the job done is what someone is looking for, I’m their guy. Either way, I appreciate your advice 🙏🏻
