I've been in the Raleigh area since '81 and it's been amazing to watch it grow. While I appreciate your video, it was an opportunity lost to add some comments as you drove around. Passed a lot of history and growth as well as great places to have a brew and eat. Next time, grab a local and have them comment as you ride around....
I'm glad our city is getting attention, there's more here than many people realize! That being said, homeless people, traffic, and parking are absolutely an issue. No getting around that.
traffic? not downtown - maybe on 440 and 40. parking is easy actually. there are decks all over downtown. and the homeless - there are maybe 50 people - the same ones every day and they disappear at night and dont sleep on the sidewalks. raleigh is a cake walk.
@@NickJohnson there's lots of traffic downtown..u were just here on a good day 🙄 maybe a Saturday at 11 am or something and parking is HORRIBLE..yes many parking decks but barely any spots because people come from all over the triangle to get to Raleigh..the homeless is a huge issue which is why schools around the Raleigh area give back to shelters and whatnot. Please speak for urself when u input things u know nothing about.
Nick should have gone down Capital Blvd on a weekday between 4:30pm-6pm. Then head over to Glenwood Ave the next day; that'll keep people from coming. And as an added bonus hop on 440 (beginning at Rock Quarry) all the way over to US 1 in Cary for that lovely weekday morning commute. 👍
Not gonna lie I swear 80% of any of my bitching is about the traffic around here. It's insane. That being said I love the area around campus, and boxcar and the Raleigh Beer Garden are some top notch destinations.
Nick, I'm guessing you were born around 1980. Back then, there were only 150,000 people in Raleigh. Today there are nearly a half a million. That's some serious growth in just under 4 decades.
I lived in the Raleigh area, just outside the city limits towards Knightdale in the '73-'76 era, when the population was about 120K. Today I live over in the Nashville, Rocky Mount, Wilson area and am glad to be gone from the Raleigh ratrace!
City of Oaks is the Official nick name for the city but if you spend anytime here you'll hear people call it oak city, even raleigh companies like Oak city beard CO can show this.
North Carolina’s 3 largest cities by population 2019. 1.Charlotte: 879.350 2.Raleigh: 558.456 3.Greensboro 301.112 After years of laying dormant, Greensboro’s downtown is starting to explode with big and impressive developments with nearly one billion dollars of development being poured into the CBD from 2017 to 2019, as Charlotte and Raleigh get more expensive, more people are moving to Greensboro which is causing the population to take off, as it’s still a pretty big city while being significantly cheaper in most parts, but still offering all the amenities you’ll get in Charlotte and Raleigh. It was only a matter of time before the baby brother started taking off, North Carolina has grown some beautiful cities with extremely high quality of life, amazing weather and climate, that’s why NC is one of the highest migrated states and is climbing faster and fast week to month.
City limits shouldn't matter. Cary is basically a Raleigh's west side and it's 180,000 people now. The Raleigh-Durham-Cary, NC Combined Statistical Area metro is over 2.2 million people. That's more people than the Nashville metro region.

I live in Raleigh. Nice video. You must have filmed on a holiday or weekend morning. There are normally lots of people walking, and I see a lot of empty parking spots. Anyway, thanks for the video. You went by a lot of my favorite restaurants.
There are five basic tenets for living here: 1. Barbecue is a noun, not a verb. 2. You must learn the difference between “y’all” and “ all y’all”. 3. When you order tea., it will come iced, sweetened, and with a lemon wedge, and based on your health, just might put you in a diabetic coma. 4. You must understand and properly use the phrase, “bless your heart”. 5. And most importantly...Down here, no one, and I mean no one ever roots for DUKE!
NC is definitely on my list to visit, especially the western portion. In the past, I have visited the coastal city of Wilmington, Cape Fear, and a few other coastal towns.

Please make a driving video of Charleston and Beaufort South Carolina. Went there last August to visit my bestfriend and I fell in love with those cities. ❤️❤️❤️
This was probably recorded during summer vacation, school is out. Also, on a Sunday morning when almost everyone's at church or sleeping over from Saturday night drinking. The most amazing part is you still manage to get a 25min footage.
@Cyn 7 Cyn I visted last week & yes there are a few hit or miss with Rolesville & Cary was actually my first choice to relocate but Rolesville I fell in love with & a guy friend of mine kept trying to get me to move to Fayetteville & I'm like no freakin way😬 I've been in Florida all my life born in Miami & raised in Orlando & the cost of rent here is ridiculously high my rent went from $1200 to $1400 within a year for a 2/2 2 1/2 bath condo it was a nice community but not worth that amount & now the 3bdrms are going for $1600-$1900... I'm excited for my move & if I don't like Rolesville after a year I'll probably try Chapel Hill I've heard great things about Chapel Hill. Thanx a bunch for the heads up on traffic😊
Couple of corrections. Moore Square isn't one of Raleigh's newest parks, in fact it's one of the cities oldest. When Raleigh was laid out in the 19th century there were four parks in the original plan. Two of those parks still survive and Moore Square is one of them. Raleigh's newest park is the 308 acer Dix Park, formerly the site of the the state mental hospital. The other thing is the Amtrak station. Raleigh's Union Station isn't refurbished, it's new, completed just a few years ago.
Completely different to most cities here in the UK. Your roads are very straight and seem to be arranged in a grid pattern, with the buildings built around the roads. Here, ours are more windy and were laid long after many of the buildings were built. Some of our buildings are hundreds of years old, occasionally over a thousand. Also noticeable that there doesn't seem to be an actual focal point or major retail areas. In the UK, the centres of our towns and cities are full of shops and always busy.
hey jason! glad you liked it. you know i do these every few weeks if you wanted to sub you could see more of them. also - i use the same music a lot - i dont have a large database of usable songs that i like :)
This was fun to watch. I drive around downtown Raleigh maybe every two or three months. I was just there yesterday, the day before i watched this. In fact, I was there last week as well, on the day you recorded this. I'm watching this wondering if I'll see my car. 😀 Anyway, you passed by a LOT of places I've eaten at.
@@NickJohnson it might be cliche for Raleigh, but probably Poole's Diner, not only for the food, but for the history it represents, plus it's the flagship of Ashley Christensen, who won best chef in the USA for 2019. Every time I come to Raleigh I try to eat at a different place. I watched this video a second time, and just in this video alone of downtown (not including the other parts of the city, or neighboring Durham and Chapel Hill), I lost count at 15, the number of restaurants you drove by that I've eaten at. 😀
I love the dead look! Over crowding is a serious thing. First people move to some places trying to get away from bigger cities like Atlanta, LA, NYC, Miami...etc. Then those same people saying “looks dead” complain about overcrowding where they come from. Backwards reasoning at its best.
@@nomenclature4399 leave my city alone, I love it just the way it is. Raleigh aint no different than any other city, it has its moments when it wants to make noise.
@@nomenclature4399 yeah, go to a miserable city if you want. There's no reason what so ever for a concentrated city, anywhere, ever. The only people who wants a city are politicians who are obsessed with power. If you're not a politician, then you are the sucker.
We have an incredible food scene for a city of our size and an insanely good pastry/bakery scene as well. If you visited Raleigh and didn't gain weight you didn't visit Raleigh.
@@tymonster183 Ah, thanks. I had imagined it as being pretty moderate. I didn't think about the humidity. I've never actually been there, I've always lived in PA/NY/NJ and thought about moving south for somewhere that has a lower cost of living, is less liberal (but not far right-wing), and warmer (but not crazy warm like Texas). I've always thought Raleigh was among the best that fit that bill.
I used to live in Garner which borders Raleigh (about a 10 minute drive from downtown.) My one criticism is about public transportation. It could expand to cover more of Raleigh and if you don't live in Raleigh (as I did) the public transportation is inadequate. One shuttle bus into Raleigh during the week and none on weekends.
Wake County has passed a transportation plan totaling more than $2 billion. It will include Bus Rapid Transit(BRT), additional routes added to include every town in the county, buses will run more frequently, and 32 miles of commuter rail over the next 10 years.
public trasnport has gotten kinda better with route 20 coming to garner, connecting it with downtown raleigh and other surrounding areas. there's still definitely room for improvement though.
Id like to see Hot Springs AR and northwest AR like Eureka Springs, Springdale, Fayetteville etc. Trying to figure out the differences in those areas. Looking for a slightly warmer and affordable place than where im at. Also lower crime. Thanks Nick.
pauly - i dont know if ill get to Arkansas any time soon. where are you now? i wish i had some advice but i dont know much about that wide region except that there are some great cities, but then you pay for that. like nashville.
I spit my drink out when he said cost of living is affordable the entire triangle area is no less than 895 if you want like a tiny apartment with paper thin walls.
I mean I lived in North Carolina for 20 years my dude. And have lived in the triangle for 9. So I think I know more than a youtuber just coming through for some hits.
i got a huge backyard a mile from North Hills mall that i thought about renting out tent space......i have seen a guy on youtube do it. i could probably make a couple grand....
tbh, i dont think its that bad. Ive been here for about 2 years, and surveying the landscape nationwide of where I had opportunity career wise, raleigh was, by far, the chaepest.
I hate how the culture is changing and every city is becoming the same as any other. I’m a Raleigh native and the transplants are pretty annoying. Life goes on.
Nick Johnson yes..fortunately I own my own business so my driving times are irregular to the 9-5er’s. But, prior to 2011-2012 you never really had to consider driving time in north Raleigh. Now what used to be a 7 minute commute 5 miles up the road takes 12-15 minutes. Even at 2pm on a random Tuesday the roads are just crowded.
I've driven a lot of where you drove in downtown (passing through on McDowell Street coming home from a college campus in Fuquay-Varina for a long time) and other places. Good thing you turned when you did on certain streets since one missed turn could lead you out of downtown into the ghetto part of the city (like Blount Street past where you turned is dangerous since that is gang turf and also drug dealers that are all shoot first and ask questions never when outsiders get in their part of the city), would not reccomend going there in Downtown Raleigh and stay more towards the central part for safety.
The south side of Raleigh/Downtown is becoming gentrified. You're not going to have to worry about crime for much longer. Houses are selling for 300-500k around that area. People are slowly but surely moving north. Capital and surrounding areas are going to look how the south side of Raleigh looks now.
So many old people on here complaining cause they don't want more people in the city or it's "too costly". Usually a good sign that it's a nice city, if locals want it all to themselves
I've been to Raleigh twice, and I have appreciated it each time. I wish my wife and I could afford to move there, but the prices have gotten completely out of hand.
Hey I live 20-25 minutes from there I love NC so much I've been living here ever since I was 2 and now I'm 13 it's so much fun living here I can say living here is a bit pricey but like in Raleigh there are so many good jobs North Carolina is beautiful the mountains and some of the beaches and Cape Fear I just love it.
Didn't you learn anything about sentence structure & punctuation in middle school, Lindsay Cabassa? You're never going to graduate from high school, or get a job to support yourself, if you don't learn how to communicate! 😖 Also, what could you possibly know about the cost of living in Raleigh?!? You're THIRTEEN!! 🤣🤣
Love your videos Nick. I would love in the future for you to Charleston, SC and/or Williamsburg, VA. Two of my favorite cities to visit. I know you're not a fan of Florida but my hometown of Tampa has growing Downtown with lots to do.
I live in Georgia & have a cousin who’s in the military who’s stationed in this area I believe not 100% sure (not familiar with NC only been to Charlotte). Anyway she said that she is not having a great experience in NC & is ready to move. She said it’s not what people say it is. My question is for anyone who lives or is from NC is she somewhat right or is it just her personal experience & taste?
It all falls back on the person at the end of the day. What is it that she likes to do for fun that she can't find to do? Is she in Fayetteville? Where is she? Where is she from?
Also I live in NC so it'll always be home. I live in the Eastern region of the state which is the coastal plain and the state's most rural part. I'm looking to move to the Raleigh-Durham area soon more jobs up that way
@@NickJohnson exactly dude was trying to say Raleigh is boring compared to Richmond when clearly Raleigh economically speaking has much more going for it. Raleigh aint for everyone I do agree but I love Raleigh and Durham for what they are. Richmond has some nice areas but the city is too stagnant it can't compete because it's too close to DC
@@alexk1682 I just moved to Raliegh and work in Durham and nah fam. Live in NYC, Bay area or LA if you want to talk traffic. (lived and worked in all 3).
Raleigh has never beeh "fun" at any age. There is no culture here. Just a hodgepodge of people saying how great it is where they came from. And New Yorkers guess what....nyc is still there. Go back.
Real estate is getting ridiculous. Inside the beltline is out of control. Now developers are buying up all the old stock between 440 and 540 on the north side to bulldoze it and build 5000 sq ft McMansions on postage stamp lots. Wake Forest is getting just as bad.
@@joeheskett7225 The Raleigh-Durham area would meet those criteria IMO. I've been here 15 years and the population has grown rapidly in that time, which is why real estate prices have gone up so much over the last few years. I think they are probably commensurate with the national average for the most part though. The population growth has also led to more traffic though, and that's kind of a pain.
When you turn on to Morgan St, All that construction to your left must be new because google earth has the most recent picture from July. Wonder what they are building?
Appreciate the video, but now even more people are gonna move here🤦♂️ Don’t forget to show the other side of town too, not just the hipster district lol
Jacob S. I love Downtown Raleigh, it’s changed so much in 10 years. When I went to Partnership Elementary it looked completely different but then they began revamping, tearing down, and building huge apartment buildings all over. They also changed a lot of the Collage district by NC State which used to be pretty rundown but now their building all sorts of stuff like a 2 story Target. My favorite part of town has to be the older streets with all the old Victorian houses.
I've heard a lot of good things about North Carolina, such as that it's a great State to visit and to reside in.. sadly I haven't been to that part of the country yet 😢
People: “The cost of living has skyrocketed” “it’s too congested” “there are too many people”....also people: “I’m going to live in the largest and second largest city in the state of nc”
Raleigh is a more densely populated city than Charlotte, Charlotte annexed nearly all of it's home county which is why it's 900,000 people. if Raleigh annexed the same area in Wake it would be the population of Charlotte or larger, Raleigh has more numerous and larger suburbs within it's home county than Charlotte has within it's home county. Atlanta's population is 500,000, is Charlotte bigger and more congested than Atlanta? Of course not. Overall the Triangle metro and Charlotte region metro are essentially the same size, about 2.5 million people each. When it comes population density (congestion) Raleigh is more comparable to Atlanta than Charlotte: Population density by city: Atlanta: 3,547/sq m Raleigh: 3,284/sq mi Charlotte: 2,827/sq mi
Man in the afternoon when some of the jobs left out Raleigh has some of the worst traffic I have ever seen and it like that pretty much every day. I feel like they really need to build more roads or widen the ones that are here to accommodate all the traffic in Raleigh because of the growth
@@miah5561 i wouldnt. Raleigh has a dark side. there is a giant butt plug statue down town and across the street form a police station is a large corporation with a giant statue of a gaping butt hole that has just been sodomized....there was a billboard on capital blvd that had a giant penis hidden in plain sight. i make one complaint on FB and it was taken down.
@@timmartin723 nooooo i have lived in Raleigh my whole life i like Richmond way way more i want to move there. Durham in my opinion is better than Raleigh.
@@jasperOgar I'm from Petersburg which is down the road from Richmond. Both cities were ranked 1 & 4 for worst cities in Virginia to raise a family in 2017. I doubt much has changed. Petersburg alone is a RatHole. Richmond on the other hand they got some nice attractions, but truth be told the city leads poorly by example. Especially being the state capital of Virginia. Hampton Roads is a little better it's not as stagnant as Richmond area. But it ain't much there either all and all, Richmond cant seem to keep up with Northern Virginia/DC area or Hampton Roads area. They seem to lose alot of business to those two regions. But hey, some people seem to love Richmond.
@Nick Johnson I live in North Raleigh [Suburban]can walk to a theater,target,multiple restaurants in only a few minutes ,the area is clean plus i feel safe even at night.
Oh Nick, you skirted the edge of the Warehouse District and missed, except for a distant nod near the end of the video, the new Union Station, the organic grocer, the Morgan Street Food Hall, Citrix Systems, CAM (Contemporary Art Museum), new retail, etc. You also missed the entire government center of the city, the museums, the Governor's Mansion neighborhood and Oakwood with their elegant Victorians. Nice enough though, and a sample taste of what's going on in the downtown area. That Smoky Hollow project which you drove past is going to be transformational to the city. Its first phase is nearing completion while the second phase is coming out of the ground. Phase 3 was just rezoned to 40 floors, and there's talk of a 4th phase as the developer assembles more property.
@@leonation89 Ain't nothing in Richmond I was born & raised in the Hampton roads area there isn't nothing here either that's why I'm trying to relocate to either Raleigh or Houston

Asheville may be my favorite city of all. It's just so isolated for me to justify plopping down for an extended period.

I go this way especiallt at night. Its beautuful and when i need a break from life. Driving on Fayetteville st. Realizes my mind
This was probably recorded during summer vacation, school is out. Also, on a Sunday morning when almost everyone's at church or sleeping over from Saturday night drinking. The most amazing part is you still manage to get a 25min footage.
Thanks so much its about time someone explored my city❗️

So beautiful I'm actually moving to a small town outside of Raleigh💕😊 & leaving Florida behind
good! which city? Garner?
@@NickJohnson Rolesville Granite Falls subdivision
@Cyn 7 Cyn I visted last week & yes there are a few hit or miss with Rolesville & Cary was actually my first choice to relocate but Rolesville I fell in love with & a guy friend of mine kept trying to get me to move to Fayetteville & I'm like no freakin way😬 I've been in Florida all my life born in Miami & raised in Orlando & the cost of rent here is ridiculously high my rent went from $1200 to $1400 within a year for a 2/2 2 1/2 bath condo it was a nice community but not worth that amount & now the 3bdrms are going for $1600-$1900... I'm excited for my move & if I don't like Rolesville after a year I'll probably try Chapel Hill I've heard great things about Chapel Hill. Thanx a bunch for the heads up on traffic😊
I JUST moved from that area to Florida! Lol maybe I made the wrong switch 🤣
@@Here_Kitty_x WOW!! really? It depends on which area you're relocating to in Orlando
Thank you for showing me the tour about North Carolina it really helped me if it was safe of not thanks. beautiful
Couple of corrections. Moore Square isn't one of Raleigh's newest parks, in fact it's one of the cities oldest. When Raleigh was laid out in the 19th century there were four parks in the original plan. Two of those parks still survive and Moore Square is one of them.
Raleigh's newest park is the 308 acer Dix Park, formerly the site of the the state mental hospital.
The other thing is the Amtrak station. Raleigh's Union Station isn't refurbished, it's new, completed just a few years ago.
Right, and full of homeless people
Oh yeah, we lived in Fort Bragg for over 2 years. It's nice to see Raleigh. This reminds us we need to make a North Carolina video too!
Yes you do!!
I watched this vid mostly to see if my dog and I were in it.
What a clean special city. This was so fun. Thank you
I love the trees and nature and how the town looks. It’s NOT being killed by traffic.
not...yet. Where do you live?
Dallas. A city that was once an attractive residential city now raped by ugly McMansions and way too many people

Are you kidding me the traffic is horrendous
@@lynetteali5001 You've never been to someplace that really does have horrendous traffic.
I love your description... you went out of the way to make this visit a very pleasant one... thumbs up plus infinity... thank you
My aunt and GMA lives in Raleigh, it’s a very clean city🤩🤩
Do you visit?
Nick Johnson yea, pretty often
Completely different to most cities here in the UK. Your roads are very straight and seem to be arranged in a grid pattern, with the buildings built around the roads. Here, ours are more windy and were laid long after many of the buildings were built. Some of our buildings are hundreds of years old, occasionally over a thousand.
Also noticeable that there doesn't seem to be an actual focal point or major retail areas. In the UK, the centres of our towns and cities are full of shops and always busy.
I’m in charged of making that new 22 story glass building. Beautiful in the inside. (Woodwork)
I always see it when me and my family pass by downtown. It looks great so far. 👍
Thanks for keeping it real
Cool! the music makes me feel like I’m in the movie “Escape From LA” John Carpenter sounds for sure!👍
hey jason! glad you liked it. you know i do these every few weeks if you wanted to sub you could see more of them. also - i use the same music a lot - i dont have a large database of usable songs that i like :)
Great videos of the city! We
This was fun to watch. I drive around downtown Raleigh maybe every two or three months. I was just there yesterday, the day before i watched this. In fact, I was there last week as well, on the day you recorded this. I'm watching this wondering if I'll see my car. 😀 Anyway, you passed by a LOT of places I've eaten at.
What's your fave downtown Raleigh restaurant? Mine is Bida Manda. Are you can tell Glenwood at night blows.
@@NickJohnson it might be cliche for Raleigh, but probably Poole's Diner, not only for the food, but for the history it represents, plus it's the flagship of Ashley Christensen, who won best chef in the USA for 2019. Every time I come to Raleigh I try to eat at a different place. I watched this video a second time, and just in this video alone of downtown (not including the other parts of the city, or neighboring Durham and Chapel Hill), I lost count at 15, the number of restaurants you drove by that I've eaten at. 😀
Hello Nick -- Is it your position to bring millions more people to live in your quiet town... why publicize the good ???
I'll be gone by then haha.

No, he just took a somewhat "clean" driving route
Was this on a Sunday? It looks dead.
Saturday morning.
I love the dead look! Over crowding is a serious thing. First people move to some places trying to get away from bigger cities like Atlanta, LA, NYC, Miami...etc. Then those same people saying “looks dead” complain about overcrowding where they come from. Backwards reasoning at its best.
Been here since 1997...still dead...go to charlotte. feels like a city
@@nomenclature4399 leave my city alone, I love it just the way it is. Raleigh aint no different than any other city, it has its moments when it wants to make noise.
@@nomenclature4399 yeah, go to a miserable city if you want. There's no reason what so ever for a concentrated city, anywhere, ever. The only people who wants a city are politicians who are obsessed with power. If you're not a politician, then you are the sucker.
We have an incredible food scene for a city of our size and an insanely good pastry/bakery scene as well. If you visited Raleigh and didn't gain weight you didn't visit Raleigh.
Been in Raleigh 19 years from Brooklyn NY!
Great place to live and raise a family. You must have never left Raleigh if you think this place is tough.
uh when did i say it was tough?
Not you...I seen some people in the comments
Am considering leaving Brooklyn for Raleigh
You’re bold to say that Raleigh has a mild climate....
lol, i thought the same thing
Omg where does this guy live?
what kind of climate would you say it has? It's not as hot as Texas or Florida, but not as cold as New England?
@@KEP1983 it's pretty hot. It doesnt break 100 all that often. But with the humidity, it's as bad as texas imo.
@@tymonster183 Ah, thanks. I had imagined it as being pretty moderate. I didn't think about the humidity. I've never actually been there, I've always lived in PA/NY/NJ and thought about moving south for somewhere that has a lower cost of living, is less liberal (but not far right-wing), and warmer (but not crazy warm like Texas). I've always thought Raleigh was among the best that fit that bill.
Thanks, Nick,another great video. 👍
I used to live in Garner which borders Raleigh (about a 10 minute drive from downtown.) My one criticism is about public transportation. It could expand to cover more of Raleigh and if you don't live in Raleigh (as I did) the public transportation is inadequate. One shuttle bus into Raleigh during the week and none on weekends.
There's really no reason to go downtown other than going to court. There are plenty of alternatives.
Wake County has passed a transportation plan totaling more than $2 billion. It will include Bus Rapid Transit(BRT), additional routes added to include every town in the county, buses will run more frequently, and 32 miles of commuter rail over the next 10 years.
public trasnport has gotten kinda better with route 20 coming to garner, connecting it with downtown raleigh and other surrounding areas. there's still definitely room for improvement though.
Id like to see Hot Springs AR and northwest AR like Eureka Springs, Springdale, Fayetteville etc. Trying to figure out the differences in those areas. Looking for a slightly warmer and affordable place than where im at. Also lower crime. Thanks Nick.
pauly - i dont know if ill get to Arkansas any time soon. where are you now? i wish i had some advice but i dont know much about that wide region except that there are some great cities, but then you pay for that. like nashville.
@@NickJohnson
Im near Lake Geneva, WI. Crime is low here but gets too cold and i need affordability because im on SSDI.
I did a video on the cheapest states once ruclips.net/video/HJwkuvEo25E/видео.html

I spit my drink out when he said cost of living is affordable the entire triangle area is no less than 895 if you want like a tiny apartment with paper thin walls.
Wrong
I mean I lived in North Carolina for 20 years my dude. And have lived in the triangle for 9. So I think I know more than a youtuber just coming through for some hits.
i got a huge backyard a mile from North Hills mall that i thought about renting out tent space......i have seen a guy on youtube do it. i could probably make a couple grand....
tbh, i dont think its that bad. Ive been here for about 2 years, and surveying the landscape nationwide of where I had opportunity career wise, raleigh was, by far, the chaepest.
@@tymonster183 you are probably a pretty slacking worker. that is pretty much what i have seen around here....
Hi Nick, Nice video. I live a few doors from Raleigh.
I live in Hillsborough NC.
I hate how the culture is changing and every city is becoming the same as any other. I’m a Raleigh native and the transplants are pretty annoying. Life goes on.
I'm part of the problem. Have you noticed all the traffic too?
Nick Johnson yes..fortunately I own my own business so my driving times are irregular to the 9-5er’s. But, prior to 2011-2012 you never really had to consider driving time in north Raleigh. Now what used to be a 7 minute commute 5 miles up the road takes 12-15 minutes. Even at 2pm on a random Tuesday the roads are just crowded.
Agreed
Yes on transplants. Last i checked NY was still open if it suck so bad here damn yankees.
Great video Nick 👍 keep up the good work
Have you been to Raleigh before?
@@NickJohnson yeah I live in Durham but from NC SC state line
I’m torn between moving to North Carolina (Raleigh) or Texas (Houston/San Antonio) both states seem great 👍
Texas is cool.
Nick Johnson lol right!
Mr 11 MOVE TO NC!!
Both awesome states but I think we have better natural scenery here in NC. Beautiful mountains and beaches both within driving distance of Raleigh.
Me too I'm torn between Raleigh or Houston as well
I've driven a lot of where you drove in downtown (passing through on McDowell Street coming home from a college campus in Fuquay-Varina for a long time) and other places. Good thing you turned when you did on certain streets since one missed turn could lead you out of downtown into the ghetto part of the city (like Blount Street past where you turned is dangerous since that is gang turf and also drug dealers that are all shoot first and ask questions never when outsiders get in their part of the city), would not reccomend going there in Downtown Raleigh and stay more towards the central part for safety.
Yes south Raleigh and east Raleigh near Rock Quarry Road are bad but northeast Raleigh off of Capital and by Atlantic are the worst.
The south side of Raleigh/Downtown is becoming gentrified. You're not going to have to worry about crime for much longer. Houses are selling for 300-500k around that area. People are slowly but surely moving north. Capital and surrounding areas are going to look how the south side of Raleigh looks now.
Daniel Rogers I’m a native here born and raised it’s not that bad dude your definitely over exaggerating
Cyn 7 Cyn thank you
@@Biggestnigga Agreed...I think we know his "kind"😐.
So many old people on here complaining cause they don't want more people in the city or it's "too costly". Usually a good sign that it's a nice city, if locals want it all to themselves
You should do Greensboro next, it's kind of sorta up and coming . We're getting first Trader Joe's and people are freaking out with excitement.
Maybe one day I will!
Greensboro reminds me of Augusta GA. I believe it's a step ahead of Augusta
Greensboro with all the live music heritage that it has, it lacks decent restaurants.
@@odomi121 really?
I've been to Raleigh twice, and I have appreciated it each time. I wish my wife and I could afford to move there, but the prices have gotten completely out of hand.
theres a famous underpass there where trucks crash into way more than usual.
Is that in Raleigh? Or is that in another North Carolina city?
There's one in Raleigh but the really good one is in durham
It's on Peace St. near the Krispy Kreme.

Hey I live 20-25 minutes from there I love NC so much I've been living here ever since I was 2 and now I'm 13 it's so much fun living here I can say living here is a bit pricey but like in Raleigh there are so many good jobs North Carolina is beautiful the mountains and some of the beaches and Cape Fear I just love it.
Great!! Live where you're happy!!
Didn't you learn anything about sentence structure & punctuation in middle school, Lindsay Cabassa? You're never going to graduate from high school, or get a job to support yourself, if you don't learn how to communicate! 😖
Also, what could you possibly know about the cost of living in Raleigh?!? You're THIRTEEN!! 🤣🤣
Love your videos Nick. I would love in the future for you to Charleston, SC and/or Williamsburg, VA. Two of my favorite cities to visit. I know you're not a fan of Florida but my hometown of Tampa has growing Downtown with lots to do.
I'm going to be in Charleston next week! I don't dislike Florida it's got a lot of energy for sure.
I live in Georgia & have a cousin who’s in the military who’s stationed in this area I believe not 100% sure (not familiar with NC only been to Charlotte). Anyway she said that she is not having a great experience in NC & is ready to move. She said it’s not what people say it is. My question is for anyone who lives or is from NC is she somewhat right or is it just her personal experience & taste?
It all falls back on the person at the end of the day. What is it that she likes to do for fun that she can't find to do? Is she in Fayetteville? Where is she? Where is she from?
Also I live in NC so it'll always be home. I live in the Eastern region of the state which is the coastal plain and the state's most rural part. I'm looking to move to the Raleigh-Durham area soon more jobs up that way
Fayetteville is rough. Probably where she is.
Plenty Leo. They can't find enough people to fill the jobs.
@@NickJohnson exactly dude was trying to say Raleigh is boring compared to Richmond when clearly Raleigh economically speaking has much more going for it. Raleigh aint for everyone I do agree but I love Raleigh and Durham for what they are. Richmond has some nice areas but the city is too stagnant it can't compete because it's too close to DC
Traffic is ridiculous n Raleigh. U must've recorded this around 11 am...

Cost of living here has skyrocketed.
Real estate is getting ridiculous. Inside the beltline is out of control. Now developers are buying up all the old stock between 440 and 540 on the north side to bulldoze it and build 5000 sq ft McMansions on postage stamp lots. Wake Forest is getting just as bad.
@@ericdaniel323 Hi, What are some of the good areas to live in your opinion, in regards to real estate?
@@joeheskett7225 depends on your priorities I guess.
@@ericdaniel323 Low crime, parks, friendly families, fun downtown, decent cost of living to name a few
@@joeheskett7225 The Raleigh-Durham area would meet those criteria IMO. I've been here 15 years and the population has grown rapidly in that time, which is why real estate prices have gone up so much over the last few years. I think they are probably commensurate with the national average for the most part though. The population growth has also led to more traffic though, and that's kind of a pain.
When you turn on to Morgan St, All that construction to your left must be new because google earth has the most recent picture from July. Wonder what they are building?
more mix use condos/workspace/dining.
So, where's the traffic? Is this super-early on a Sunday morning on New Year's Day?!
seems too good looking to be true.

Appreciate the video, but now even more people are gonna move here🤦♂️ Don’t forget to show the other side of town too, not just the hipster district lol
Jacob S. I love Downtown Raleigh, it’s changed so much in 10 years. When I went to Partnership Elementary it looked completely different but then they began revamping, tearing down, and building huge apartment buildings all over. They also changed a lot of the Collage district by NC State which used to be pretty rundown but now their building all sorts of stuff like a 2 story Target. My favorite part of town has to be the older streets with all the old Victorian houses.
Lmao! You mean the south side??
Big facts lol you aint go down bragg or Martin street.. How bout drive down new Bern yeah lol

Raleigh is great!
This guy has a awesome job
People: “The cost of living has skyrocketed” “it’s too congested” “there are too many people”....also people: “I’m going to live in the largest and second largest city in the state of nc”
Haha it's not bad here at all people need to chillax
What do u mean its 2 congested 470,000 people is nothing compared to nearly 900,000 in charlotte.
Raleigh is a more densely populated city than Charlotte, Charlotte annexed nearly all of it's home county which is why it's 900,000 people. if Raleigh annexed the same area in Wake it would be the population of Charlotte or larger, Raleigh has more numerous and larger suburbs within it's home county than Charlotte has within it's home county. Atlanta's population is 500,000, is Charlotte bigger and more congested than Atlanta? Of course not. Overall the Triangle metro and Charlotte region metro are essentially the same size, about 2.5 million people each.
When it comes population density (congestion) Raleigh is more comparable to Atlanta than Charlotte:
Population density by city:
Atlanta: 3,547/sq m
Raleigh: 3,284/sq mi
Charlotte: 2,827/sq mi
Come to San Diego and feel 3+ million people .

Oh Nick, you skirted the edge of the Warehouse District and missed, except for a distant nod near the end of the video, the new Union Station, the organic grocer, the Morgan Street Food Hall, Citrix Systems, CAM (Contemporary Art Museum), new retail, etc. You also missed the entire government center of the city, the museums, the Governor's Mansion neighborhood and Oakwood with their elegant Victorians. Nice enough though, and a sample taste of what's going on in the downtown area. That Smoky Hollow project which you drove past is going to be transformational to the city. Its first phase is nearing completion while the second phase is coming out of the ground. Phase 3 was just rezoned to 40 floors, and there's talk of a 4th phase as the developer assembles more property.
