Were you surprised by the results?
Yeah, I was kind of surprised NC was #1. My sister lives in a suburb of Raleigh and some of the attitudes of the people (especially in places like Cary) are just nuts. The laws are really kind of lacking and a bit draconian. Some long time residents still think we’re fighting the Civil War. You’re praising their infrastructure when an snow/ice storm used to shut down I-40 for days.
@@JimAllen-Persona Laws lacking what? Draconian how? As far as snow shutting things down, that's because it's so rare. I consider that a good thing. I've lived here for 24 years and have used my snow shovel twice. You don't shovel rain.
Not at all, I came from Mansfield, PA and the mountain hiking, river and lake rec makes it surprisingly beautiful. It's North Central PA. I was born in NC, moved to Tacoma, WA, and now I live in Binghamton. One day I'll move to Asheville, NC or somewhere similar
Yes since I lived in NC and couldn’t wait to get out of there. Live in TX and FL now, much better than boring old NC.
Not at all this channel is from a biased NC creator, who has a following of NCrs that watch this channel. Populous states with mire metros, will always have more votes
i LIKE Mileage Mik. no bs. no chamber of commerce. no fake humor. he reports the detail totally straight.
Really enjoy the unique topics on this channels, not copying anything out there

Shout out from Philly. Awesome video Mike.
great video format thank you mike 👍
No longer a Minnesotan, but the schools are top notch, people are honest and friendly, and the scenery gets better the further north that you go. Winter is a negative, but Minnesotans find ways to adapt and live with it. Ice fishing and snowmobiling are a blast. Good episode Mike.
Thanks
Thank you for this video! I really enjoyed it!
My biggest complaint as someone who grew up in the triangle, lives in Charlotte, attended or worked at all of the "big 3" schools, and loves the state - public transportation and pedestrian infrastructure is brutally bad a lot of the time. It's inspiring to see that this is starting to change though, both in big cities and small towns. Organizations like Strong Towns seem to be gathering steam in lots of places like Hickory, for example.
Every time I consider moving, I'm like "wait, it's not 3 hours to the beach or the mountains everywhere?" Cost of living is going up dramatically, especially in my hometown of Durham since it seems to be a trendy place to be now, but that seems to be the case across the country honestly.
This is so true. As someone who grew up in the Triangle, the lack of pedestrian infrastructure may seem trivial, it is very hard to get around as someone without a license and makes for as very boring city.
Cleveland is an okay place to live
North Carolina is the best on the list, it's not too liberal and as beautiful as any state
Durham is a strange city. My sister lived there for years. High crime in one part, gentrification in another.
Desprately trying to move to the triangle or Charlotte right now, they seem to be everythingi im looking for. Alot of things are moving in the right direction.
Keep doing these comment reads and polls in your videos; I really like the interactivity. And congrats to your home state!🌲
Subscribed!! My fellow Tar Heel fan!
I love the fact that each of the states has great pride in their states! One cannot understand the true nature of our glorious country without realizing that the name "The United States" accurately describes it!!!
That was me that suggested the channel's viewership was skewed towards NC - I stand corrected! Lol I've lived in NC for 12 years, and I agree with most of the reasons people love it. While I personally gravitate towards the three other finalists for different reasons, the average person can't go wrong in moving here. We have something for almost everyone!
It's as close as you'll get to the ideal state and I'm happy to live here
7th is still high coinsidering its population compared to NY, TX, and CA. Lots of Carolinians on this channel for sure.
Igly sprawl everywhere and eyesore highways everywhere, no thanks! Plus the accent is so annoying
I lived in Asheville for 2 years, couldn’t wait to get out of there.
@@PSTXFLyeah Asheville is ass
I live in Harrisburg, PA and I love living along the Susquehanna River.
I'm not surprised North Carolina took the crown for the south, they really have it all. The only thing that would stop me personally from moving to North Carolina is the sheer popularity of it, some growth is good, but big growth can be just as detrimental as population loss, and even though North Carolina is managing it's growth pretty good it's still too popular for me.
And another bonus about NC is that it's a pretty politically balanced state, not too far left, not too far right. It might be hard for people who live and breathe politics to believe it, but there are many people who don't want to live in a politically polarizing state
I think South Carolina is a gem that gets overlooked.
Surprised that you didn’t get to other states like Tennessee or Georgia but your survey was the guide and time to make more videos is your future.
both of my sets of grandparents lived in North Carolina, but I'm not sure I'll ever have a reason to go back now that my uncle convinced them to move closer to him. There's a place in Wilmington called Somethin' Fishy that was great
North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, New Hampshire, Maine, Utah, Upstate NY, Florida, Ohio, South Carolina, that's my rank
Im wanting to move to the outskirts of one of the nc metro areas one day from the Boston area, I love how its growing. With its job market expansions is quite remarkable
I like your choices but my vote goes to Pennsylvania. If you have a chance, check out State College, PA in Centre County's Happy Valley. Beautiful scenery, small college town, excellent academic resources, and an atmosphere of excitement.
Texan here -- if I had to leave, NC would absolutely be on my short-list. The western corner of the state may be relatively under-developed but it's stunningly beautiful, and as a former VA Beach resident, NC's coast has that beat to shame and back..
So you say
PA winning the NE was a pleasant surprise as it is my home state. As for the midwest, I am not surprised with MN winning. I would say based on anecdotal evidence Chicago is not a place I would live in (though perhaps cook county itself could be a good alternative), I might consider Detroit over Chicago, though the twin cities are appealing
I’ve lived in South Jersey 71 years, and love it! We have the best of many of your criteria!
I do really like living in Texas, but I live here because my friends and family are here and the crime isn't as bad as California or Washington. There are other states where I would move if I had no connections, like Florida, Alaska, Georgia, or Arkansas.
In Colorado if you really want thin air and being short winded. Go on top of Pikes Peak 😊
Another Excellent video Mike!! I love NC and it is the best state in the SE, from someone who has been all over myself. I do hope for the day when the Charlotte area has a "good" sports team as the Panthers, FC, and the Hornets, all are struggling.
In Colorado Springs, CO, it helps for one of the fittest since it has a large military presence.
My dad used to live in New Bern, NC and I really liked the town. Lots of history in the city and the area, like Tryon Palace and Fort Macon, and close to the beach
Love the channel keep them coming! 👍🏾
I always find it wild when Delaware is considered the South, because it's essentially a suburb of Philadelphia. At least New Castle County.
Delaware was a slave state prior to the Civil War, so that's why. Nowadays it's probably more often defined as a "mid-Atlantic" state but traditionally it was part of the South.
You need to see the rest of Delaware. It isn't a suburb of anyplace.
Lancaster is not affordable anymore. A decade ago, I rented a 1 br apartment for $530. People from New York moved down and gentrified the area.
Same thing in Philly. Our middle class affordable neighborhoods are disappearing as New Yorkers move here with their money and drive up prices.
@Slaythehippies Sounds like you have a problem with the free market.
@@blenderbanana lmao the free market died decades ago. If we had a free market we wouldn't have housing scarcity and the price points that we're seeing today. Capitalism is dead.
You have a calm and relaxing voice like Mr.Rogers or Bob Ross
Moved here in 1973, and soon after hoped that NC could be kept a secret. Glad that growth has not ruined it. Fingers crossed.
Boston at a geographical advantage:
- close to Europe
- further north
Yeah, a mere 3000 miles away 😂
Portland, ME is even closer to Europe. The only state that has real significance for international travel in terms of distance is Alaska if you're talking countries on the other side of the world.
Disadvantage you mean
Your opinion is biased and incorrect. You’re only saying that because you hate the cities that are southwest of Boston pertaining to Philadelphia. So check your facts before you post a bullshit answer
Exorbitantly expensive COL
Massive political corruption veiled in neo-woke political theatrics
Thrice-refrozen grey slush with tasty brown bits in it
Crumbling infrastructure despite the tits-high taxes
Academic community has head up collective ass
Sox and Pats blow, Bill B gone
But yeah, only 3,000 miles from Dublin, so there's that
Minneapolis just had its mildest and least snowy winter in recorded history - so naturally, we are only just Today getting over a foot of snow dumped on us as I type this. Shoveling snow in March indeed!
No way.😮
I have to disagree with MN being the best state in the Midwest or at all I live outside of Minneapolis! It is not at all. Can't wait to move.
North Carolina
6:20 - Muhlenberg College is in Allentown, and the University of Pennsylvania is in Philadelphia.
Midwest: I would live in Ohio I'm from Chicagoland so I feel like I would feel at home in Ohio with all the rust belt cities I'd probably live around Cleveland or something I know people hate on Cleveland but it seems like a very affordable big city to live in and it's close to Cedar Point!
I've only been to Minnesota once and we went to the very north part where you might mistake it for the deep South but people were lovely and I would love to actually experience The twin cities. I feel like Minnesota and Wisconsin are the most midwestern states. You'll always get a quote salad which is just Jello in a casserole pan with various other whatever.
Northeast: I've been to New York and I would like to go to Philadelphia but I stayed overnight on a road trip one day in Pittsburgh and absolutely fell in love It was like a perfect mix of the Midwest and the Northeast It's also gorgeous with its yellow bridges and the people are so nice I think it's one of those cities that gets overlooked but I would go back to Pittsburgh in a heartbeat.
Northern MN is like the deep South? What??😮 You gotta explain that one.
I was born and raised in Cleveland and have been living in Cincinnati for the past two decades. It's hard to tell which of the two cities is best. Ohio has it all and is SO affordable.
@philipgermani1616 Cleveland sucks compared to Columbus. Cleveland can't and never will get out of its own way and the residents have such a negative, loser mentality. I grew up in NE OH and spent the majority of my adult life 50 miles from CLE. Moved to the greater CBUS area 5 yrs. ago and like it way better here. People are waaay nicer and the weather is marginally better. No lake effect snow BS.
Well, it seems like half of Cleveland is abandoned commercial real estate. You should drive around the city before moving there. Cleveland was once home to a million people. It's population is down to 425,000. That's the definition of a dying city. NE Ohio is full of meth heads.
Let’s go NC!
I was born in Bucks County in '81 but we moved to Western PA in '90 and I haven't seen eastern PA since the 80s. Did most of my growing up in rural western PA, but lived in Ohio for a year just to see what was going on there, until eventually moving to California and living there for 15 years. Came back to PA in 2020 and started living in Pittsburgh for the first time. Out of all the states I've lived or been through, PA is definitely the best for me by far in terms of just about everything. Would be absolutely perfect if it was coastal, so I'm rooting for global warming.
Had a funny trip there back in the late 1990s for a training class, it was the week before Christmas and like 70 there all week (nice). But I couldn't figure out the roads much at all! LOL. We spent hours trying to get out of the Raleigh-Durham Airport, somehow found the hotel at like 11PM. Luckily the training center was on the same road as the hotel, and across from the hotel was a small mall. We tried several nights to find different spots for dinner, but always got lost. LOL. Something else, I guess the humidity was low, every time we touched the rental car we got our fingers zapped! LOL. Very beautiful state, I agree.
As a born Pennsylvanian that lives in Florida, Florida is an interesting state full of nice activities and very warm summers but I wish I could go back there. Mostly in the summer I would go Pennsylvania or New Jersey and uncommonly maryland or Delaware very nice state overall.
Born in TX, lived in the Midwest most of my life. Hope to head back south someday. People are nice and the summer is amazing but it’s the end of march and I’m currently watching a blizzard out my window here in MN.
Summer in Texas is HORRIBLE!

Excellent video. If I move anywhere, I couldn't care less about the job market because I'm retired with streams of residual income.
Oh yeah once you don't need a job the potential options for living are wide open.
Bro videos have always been A1, I'm in PA I moved here in 2015 been thriving ever since
Call me crazy, but I will never live in a state that is not next to the ocean, the salty sea smell, the fresh seafood. (Never more than 15 minutes away)
Can't stand sea food. Don't like the flavor of sea food. I'll visit the ocean and that's enough and will never live in an area with hurricane watch
@@Electrodexify I am not sure how many Americans live with in 10 miles for the sea shore, l think they're more than 1/3 of the population in the United states
@benh3427 that's too bad that many of those cities are unwalkable and sprawling suburban jungles. Also many people fall for california hollywood glamorized propaganda, so they move to these places, thinking that beaches is everything, that makes these places to live. Of course there are many more criteria besides living along a beach
Love seafood, but not all the people that live on the coasts.
I love it and have lived within 25 min to beach and have a summer rental on beach. It’s so peaceful and wonderful
Born & raised in Minnesota and have lived in the Twin Cities all my life but there's nothing like the scenery & outdoor adventures to be had in Northern Minnesota! ♥
I was wondering how North Cackalacky would ranked and I’m not surprised. Three distinct regions, 4 seasons,. I look out my door and see mountains and 5 to 7 hours to the coast. A lot of history and culture.
14:50 - When my brother entered NC State, I was impressed by 'Research Triangle' .
14:53 - Charlotte is home to banks that historically were in California, namely Bank of America (formerly Nations Bank) and Wells Fargo (formerly First Union / Wachovia) .
Thanks to everyone who voted Pennsylvania. Theres so much to do here thats very overlooked.
Probably my 2nd choice, but I already live in NC and love it. I really enjoyed driving through PA.
It's sadly becoming crowded and unaffordable anywhere that is close to anything.
My uncle and his family moved to North Carolina from PA after 38 years in PA. There must be something drawing people.
Hey, Mike. Have you heard about how Atlanta metropolitan has jumped up from 8th to 6th place, overtaking Philadelphia metro and D.C. metro?
I did
Didn't know it caught DC. Where did you see that?
@@MileageMike485 I know 11 Alive’s website mentioned it. The AJC speaks on it as well. The difference in population between ATL metro and DC isn’t a huge gap but it’s just enough to give Atlanta the edge.
Born and raised in N\W Indiana. Enlisted in the Navy after HS. Lived in the Deep South after that. Stationed in Jacksonville FL. Married then lived in Tennessee, Georgia, North Carolina, & South Carolina.
Tennessee has been my home since 1971. Not leaving Tennessee. South Carolina was our second favorite place to live. Charleston SC our favorite city for vacation and visit. Atlanta least favorite city we lived in.
Lived in all the states on the west coast, including Alaska for 25+ years.
The answer to your question is Washington state. Duh! Grew up in California, but it’s number 2 at best. Nice to see my city on the map.
I've lived in NC for 24 years and don't have any desire to move anywhere else. I wouldn't mind living in Provence or Tuscany, but there is this small matter of learning French or Italian.
VA native here (Portsmouth); spent all my summers growing up in OBX (Avon). Love NC.
Best infrastructure in America.
Best infrastructure in America? Nonsense
@@757CitiesReppa NC roads are excellent, my nig.
I visited Pittsburgh with my bestie! I love it! Soooo cute! Big city vibes and views smaller city vibes as soon as you leave the Central Business District! Also a gay Mecca!
I don't like cities, but for whatever reason Pittsburgh has always felt okay to me. It feels like a bunch of mid towns next to each other, and it is very easy and quick to get away from it to some very nice countryside. People there don't have city egos for the most part. It's not hard to talk to a rando there. The layout is so strange and random. The crime problem is mild compared to similar places. Some similar sized cities people seem a lot more on edge, angry, aggressive. Some roads that are in the city look like a country road in WV, then, all the sudden, back out into an urban area again. It has a rugged coolness to it.
north carolina is pretty amazing, but we need mass transit options!
For me here are my picks
Midwest: South Dakota
North East: Pennsylvania (my home state)
West: idaho
South: Oklahoma
And just for run the best new england state by far is new hampshire
Keep in mind i have visited every state and most of them more than once
Thank you. Oklahoma is easily my pick for this region too. It’s often overlooked but I’m not even upset about that at this point. Lots of people are still moving here… but I think we have enough now. lol.
Love my state!
@@kale_xo yeah oklahoma is probably my favorite state outside my own
Outside of the badlands and mount Rushmore, there is nothing to see or do in South Dakota
Come on there's not a single city in south dakota and I'm from Omaha Nebraska. Also the SD weather is too cold
@@Electrodexify just off the top of my head Pierre Sioux city Watertown rapid city. Yes there are cities
As a truck driver. I hate colorado. Weather is always unstable. Roads are dangerous, but I can deal with that. What I hate is the low poverty rates on back hauls leaving that state, there’s never freight leaving Colorado.
And Denver is disgusting (air quality) and wretched with sprawl.
It's as bad as Salt Lake City.
As long as Florida wasn't voted as the best place to live in the south, I'm okay with North Carolina and Texas as being the best places to live in the region 👍
I live in NC, lived in TX, love both but Florida is really high on my list.
I like Texas and NC but Florida is better.
Ugly sprawling suburban jungles of florida cities yikes
I ended this when you mentioned Minnesota and highlighted Minneapolis/ST. Paul. Except for one or two picks those who cared to vote in the polls chose their states based on their liberal politics
Of the 3 powerhouse schools in the Triangle area of NC, it's neither UNC nor Duke that owns the 2024 ACC Basketball Championship. Go Wolfpack! Oh, we also have the best engineering school in the state as well.
I had my alma mater in the sweet 16, they friggin did it!!! 🎉
I'll take the black hills area over anywhere else all day. The state laws, the people, the land, the seasons, the job market, the hunting, You can't beat it man. And I'm from MN this state once was great, before all the bleeding heart leftists ruined it with higher taxes, insane policies, the crime, the destruction of our culture... it hurts man.
I live in Minnesota and love it here. I am currently enjoying the 10 inch March snowstorm we’re getting right now
Minnesota is a shit hole.
Only been in 4 inches here at Washington. Jealous a bit
😍10 inches?
Snow. Don't like it. 😎
but its gone the next day so not too bad
Minnesotan here, pretty happy about the 1st placement, and by the way we don't say you betcha, but we do say Uffda and Duck, Duck, Grey Duck
Cmon. You gotta give Tennessee some credit for the smokies, Dolly Wood, and best of all Grand Ole Opry.
never knew NC was so good with the jobs, good to know
The job market in NC is far better than what is in VA. As far as the Hampton Roads of VA is concerned "If Norfolk Naval Base and Langley Air Force Base were to close up, that area would dry up because the job market there is completely dependent on the presence of the military."
Wow the Northeast results surprised me, I would have thought NJ would be the popular option due to the beaches and great amount of suburbanites dispersed across the state and its presence of being right in the middle of the northeast coastal metroplex. Even on other geographic channels, I really haven't seen Pennsylvania getting mentioned as the best state in the Northeast majority of the time. But Pennsylvania do deserve its credit, it is a beauty in terms of nature compare to the other Northeast states, which may have driven those results to be chosen.
Beaches don’t matter as much when housing prices are through the roof, traffic is everywhere and you’re living with Jerseyites. I’m a Long Islander.. I get it. PA doesn’t really surprise me.
@@JimAllen-Personait wasn’t always like this with the prices in jersey
Live in the DC metro which many call/consider the mid-Atlantic Region, and it’s very nice here; expensive but nice especially northern Virginia and the Maryland suburbs around DC.
If it wasn’t for it being in the cultural South (no hateful responses plz), I definitely live in North Carolina. It’d be a beautiful east coast alternative to Northern California n Oregon.
I've lived in PA my whole (Montgomery County in the Philadelphia suburbs). Driving across the state on I-80 is one of the prettier drives I've made. And the historic sites in Philadelphia and other places is great. And the cheesesteaks. Don't forget the cheesesteaks. I'm on the Wawa side of the Wawa-Sheetz debate.
WHO voted for Ohio?! Especially when Michigan is right there. I’m born in FL. lived in GA & CO. I chose to move to metro Detroit and it was the best decision I’ve made. I love Michigan. Put some respect on Michigan.
lol but Michigan aint even make the cut. Our weather is better here especially in southwest Ohio we have 3 major cities while Michigan only has Detroit. lol you gotta chill. Cincinnati has the largest metro in Ohio.. Cleveland lit too and Columbus is like the 2nd biggest city in the Midwest. Columbus is bigger than Detroit. It’s way more going on in Ohio than the “state” of Detroit.
I agree; Michigan is a much more beautiful State than Ohio. I’ve been to a number of States and there are a number of really lovely States, but Ohio didn’t impress me nearly as much as Michigan did.
Other than college football, I love Michigan and I am a born and current resident of Ohio.
Lmao you already hate Ohio like a local
Because Ohio is WAY better than Michigan, that’s why.
Midwest: Michigan. South: Upstate South Carolina, North Spartanburg County.
Right, with woke liberal Michigan gov, give me a break. Michigan is a declining rust belt state
@richardalvarez2390 I DESPISE Grinchen Whitler. Michigan outside Destroyit, Lansing, etc is full of conservatives. I live in SC now. Don't you EVER call me a woke type. I hate communists.
@@richardalvarez2390 Didn't claim otherwise.
You forgot to mention also has a major Nascar track over there lol
My favorite states in each area, Pennsylvania in the NE, Michigan in the Midwest, with Missouri a close second. Idaho in the west, I think Florida gets the nod in the south, just ahead of North Carolina.
NORFF CURLINAAA!!! Go on and raise up!
Moved here 5 years ago and love this place!!
Everyone loves North Carolina. You guys have MrBeast lol
@@stargazer-elite I didn't even know that lol
Still think Florida is better than NC but that’s just me. Great video Mike
My personal opinion I’d prefer living in Florida but I think many choose NC because it’s cheaper.
I resided in PA for 13 years, and it is a beautiful state with nice people (except for Philly people who are rude).
If really want to pick another state from Midwest it should be Wisconsin and if for West, it should be Montana
Iowa has low taxes. Social Security is NOT taxed! Des Moines has a low tax rate making it a quite livable city and metro area! I’m honored to be from southeast Iowa! Rich farmland also! FACTS! Mark in Iowa.
10:45 - Airport .. Do you mean flights to the most different destinations?
I still think Texas is the second best state in the country.
I live in NC most of my life but lived in San Antonio. I love NC but Texas is awesome AF
I hated living in Texas but I lived in fort worth. Everyone tells me that's why I hated it and that the rest of the state is much nicer
Sprawl, grey asphalt jungles and hostile heat. Yikes!
Southern California: a pleasant climate and I can sail one week and ski the next
Definitely. Probably the best in the US in my opinion.
Don't forget homeless and unclean public spaces
Go Heels!!!❤
I moved to North Carolina from Virginia back in 2015, and it's was the best move I could have made. Plenty of good paying jobs, the beaches of are actually beaches, the mountains are home to plenty of waterfalls that one can enjoy, the climate is mild, and the people not only friendly but the average resident tend to actually enjoy life. One could go to any of the state's festivals and without being stuck dealing with a much of nonsense from either side. .
💈It's worth pointing out that the federal government doesn't have any official regional definitions. Each department uses it's own definitions for their respective needs but there is no one agreed upon definition (which is why there are different regions depending on the department instead of an umbrella default). This actually led one of these departments, the USGS, to inquire about the federal governments official stance on the matter, to which they stated they had none. People tend to use the census bureau's regions, however, they are antiquated in many ways and rarely updated.💈
for the northeast i think it has to be either NJ or NY. or Maine if you like that kinda thing. (love from NY. Except for boston. then its hate from NY).
That's probably the biggest region I would never want to live in is the Northeast. I'd rather live out in Wyoming or Montana than anywhere in the Northeast. The south is my preference
Love Upstate and NYC for totally different reasons. This state has it all!
@@tomfields3682Including high taxes and tolls.
@@JimAllen-Persona Low tax states are all trash! And if you don't want to pay tolls, stay off the Thruway.
Cant honestly recommend MN anymore. Born and lived my entire life here. The beauty of northern MN is unmatched and the tranquility of rocks and cows is perfect. But were getting dragged down by the cities. The rising crime rate in the metro, schools are terrible in the metro core while the rest of the state is good still. The taxes keep goin up to pay for crap that dosent matter and cant be spent reasonably. We dont have transit thats worth anything while the roads are congested in the metro. Our waterways in the south are not safe for swimming anymore (kinda my peoples fault). And the regulations are out of hand. We still have it better than both coasts but its getting worse every year
Best part of Minneapolis is when you're headed west it's in your rear-view mirror and you crossed the Minnesota border into South Dakota that's the best part!
I’ll take California Southern California, my beautiful San Diego, over any place else in this country to live I’m 67 years old I’ve seen the whole country and I’ve lived in most parts of it at certain times. So I know there is nowhere compares to Southern California in this country, nowhere!
Yeah the homeless and the smells of homeless urine wafting through the air agree with you! It's nice to know that the homeless have a place to live in the country 😂
Nebraska is so underrated everyone always forgets we exist 😢
Us along with our neighbors are who feed the nation I guess it’s just a thankless job though
Omaha was better than I expected when I visited.
i find minnesota expensive AF across the board.
Definitely. If I didn’t have family here I’d be gone in a heartbeat
I lived in Indiana moved to FL not way to expensive to live there on limited income son lived in NC live in WNC in the foothills lot to get use too. But cheaper the FL at least when I moved here. The people are very friendly and so helpful. Sad though it seems most people think NC ends at the Charolette area. They are missing so much not coming future west we have so much to offer here
What’s the best suburbs of Raleigh yo live in?
Apex, Cary, Holly Springs.
@@MileageMike485You mean Containment for Relocated Yankees?
