Hi Rachel! Never seen your channel before but wanted to welcome you to Raleigh. I think you'll really like it here - I moved around a year ago and still find something new every day that I love!
Is Raleigh a good place to raise kids? Do you recommend us any town ? We will move from NJ but we are looking for places . We saw Raleigh, wake Forest and holly Springs? Any advice?
@@natjuj894 we're going to rent an apartment. We actually just spoke with the management company of one complex and they will hold it for us. We have to put a deposit of course and fill out the application. They do virtual touring or send a video and pictures. Seems pretty simple and smooth. What about you?
@@tomeh1944 ive been in contact with the apartments im interested in but i wasnt told that they would hold it for me, i will have to inquire on that. What madebu guys choose to move to Raleigh

@@sarellyquezada7577 All three are amazing places to raise kids.All three are touching. Holly springs and wake forest are more pricey then Raleigh. They have great schools,restaurants,parker's whatever you are looking for.
@@precioushardy7422 perfect. I think I will start focusing on Raleigh my kids are very small now so maybe I can stay 1 year in Raleigh then move to holly springs or wake forest. Thank you very much 😍 by the way , how much you can say rent can be for a 2 bedroom apt? Thank you 😊
I live in a 2 bedroom trailer and its $800 a month. So I would say $800-$1800 depending where you move in Raleigh. I live In the country. 10 mins from Downtown
I love the vibe between you both- your style is so elegant/clean and he is such a guy like he's so practical! you guys remind me of me and my boyfriend omg so cute. Alsoooo this apartment is beautiful I absolutely love.
so happy for you! no more distance! my bf and i moved in together in Athens this semester and it’s like really being home. also living with a man is frustrating, our yeti’s are a center piece in our home😅🙃
Moved here 3 years ago from Monroe, i am looking to move towards Nash County side of Wake County, more land , still close to the city and cheaper! Good luck to you both.
I would put the couch not against the wall. So the version you described with the tv at the wall where yor bedroom is ( if i got that right. ) I think it would separate the kitchen and living area. Cant wait to see it with furniture and what you decide 👍☺️
OMG I just moved to Raleigh. Please do videos on where you go for fun/how you meet friends in the city, definitely trying to start making friends here.
I think the pole thing at the island is so you can put like to bar stools there to eat at and stuff! But I agree, they should've just stuck with cabinets
Stick to the West side of town or Clemmons. Most productive people live on the outskirts in the bedroom communities, but there are some downtown loft apartments from the old tobacco factories that are pretty nice. The historic areas like Buena Vista are nice too, but cost BIG bucks to live in. There's a lot of crime in the inner city. I work in W-S, but live in Fancy Gap Va. across the Va/NC Border from Mount Airy NC
Long Lance we are actually moving to kernersville I just say Winston Salem because I’m not sure how many people know kernersville it’s such a small town. I’m excited we got into a very nice development. Hoping I can find a job easily
@@jamiepagliarulo4985 Kernersville is pretty safe as long as you're not in any of the apartments near the Goodwill on 150. The police don't eff around in K-vegas and have low tolerance for BS. My grandmother lives there. The biggest problem with K-vegas is that it has grown too fast and it's a little congested. When I was growing up it was more rural than anything. Now it's thriving big time. Do you know what area you're moving to? I also graduated from East Forsyth High School. My parents have always lived in the Blue Ridge Mountains, but my mother was a teacher in Winston Salem, so I would go to school from my grandmother's in Kvegas because my mother commuted here to work like half the people in Fancy Gap Va.(abt. 60 mins from W-S) They still do, but now most of them work in hospitals and medical offices instead of the tobacco factories and sewing mills.
Long Lance oh my goodness! Hahah so much Info I have no idea honestly about much of the area at all, all I know is that we’re right on union cross road? By highway 40 I believe. And good I’m glad it should be easy to find a job! Also downtown kernersville looks adorable!
Welcome to Raleigh NC. When everything is over check out Boxcar for fun and games. Gringo a GOGO has really really great tacos and lots of outdoor seating for now. For seafood 42nd street oyster bar is a staple. BEST WISHES
Costco has THE BEST hotel like towels at a great price!!! My guy friends have visited and used them and commented how they were the nicest towels they have ever used! So check those out!
What a great apartment! This is the first video I've seen of yours. Welcome to North Carolina! I live in Roxboro which is about an hour north of Raleigh. Hope you love the area! Also, your puppy is so good! We just got a puppy that is 3 months old. I hope she is as chill as yours is when she's almost 5 months! I wouldn't be able to leave her loose in the house or car without her destroying everything. 🤣
Welcome to Raleigh! I took this journey 16 years ago. So I can appreciate what you are experiencing. In polarity, I will be taking this journey again, back to Florida (or Georgia...not sure yet), next spring. You will love it here. Once all the political crap passes, there is SO MUCH to do and see. Best of luck with everything.
I think the couch would go perfect where you were talking about. Also it seems like that's how they set up the living room anyways since you can see the cable outlet and electric outlet on the wall your TV will go. And like you said it will make it feel like the kitchen and living room are their own spaces 😊 love your new apartment!
What if you put bar stools under the island where that weird pole is?? I guess you would have to play around with it. And for the couch I like that idea and I also think that wall across from the window is so big you’ll want the TV there to fill it
This video popped up on my newsfeed and I had to check you out cause I live in Raleigh myself you will love it here welcome I was born and raised here new subscriber ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Congrats on your and Dylan’s new apartment! It’s beautiful. Your island is meant for two bar type stools, that’s way that bar is there, that’s what I can see. Good luck!!😊❤️
This is so random but your video just came up on my RUclips suggestions page and this is literally where I live! My apartment is even the same floor plan! Just thought that was the weirdest thing ever hahaha but welcome to Raleigh!!!
@Iron Fist Facts...Wakefield is even More Beautiful!! That’s where a lot of the Carolina Hurricanes Players live at...And Bryan McKnight if he haven’t moved yet!! Also do believe J. Cole lives out there!! I’ve hopped with him at the LiveTime on Six Forks just minutes outside of Wakefield Before!! 💯
I love how happy Winnie makes you. Best decision ever
Agreed
I live in Raleigh Nc !!! Welcomeeeee , so dope to finally follow someone that is close in NC . Dopeeeness .
