I'm not from either area but I have lived in Greensboro two separate times over the last 5 years. In my experience, W-S feels much more like a "city" to me compared to Greensboro. Greensboro just feels very spread out with a much smaller and seemingly less established downtown area. When I've driven around W-S it feels much more upscale with more affluent neighborhoods.
@@movingtowinstonsalem8499 We are looking at air tickets so we can do visit and compare. Our son was in Durham for 3 years so we like the climate of NC. We are looking at retirement in 3 years I'll reach out to you when we solidify our plans and know our dates to see the area.
@@movingtowinstonsalem8499 oh wow. I was definitely not trying to be funny lol. During my research I've seen vids where people said the cockroaches (also called palmetto bugs) are huge and a "native" so to speak in NC. They have said that some cities are worst than others so I figured I'd ask you about WS and Greensboro because to tbh the "bug" thing was kinda a concern and drawback for me...I hate bugs of all kinds but especially anything looking like a roach LOL.

Greensboro in my opinion is better and have more stuff to do but the cost of living is more expensive....Great video bro!
@@1deep499 yessir
Very informative. Great video!
Thanks!
Thank you for comps on each category for these two cities
You’re welcome! Which do you prefer ?
Your video has steered our interests in Winston-Salam. More independent restaurants, art vibes, and smaller size.
@michellemeert4396 good points! Have you visited either city in person? Thats important

I mean, maybe in the woods or something, I honestly don’t know what to say . I’m sure they exist I’m just not outdoors enough lol. Or in nasty houses
