Aren’t you a Chicago nikka?My family moved to Tennessee from North Carolina and Virginia in 1800s. I was born here. I inherited a house from a family member. So this is my State. You transplanting complaining ass nikkas that don't even have a connection to a State, but want to bum rush in need to keep it moving.
I personally know that Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana would welcome transplanters. So get there.
My ancestors are from Africa
I was born in Tennessee. My parents were working in Chicago so that is where I grew up, but every Summer of my childhood was spent in Tennessee on my grandparents farm. So we were actually transplants to Chicago. Fugg that cold weather and those high ass taxes.
You transplanters just keep it moving cause we full.

Definitely plug me into the dope shopping and dining. I haven't been downtown yet, I'm in an area they call "Alliance", are you familiar with that part?
But again I'll say what I've seen so far of Fort Worth is pretty cool...
Where are you in NC?
I gave a few reasons I prefer NC. There are more things NC/SC have in common than the reasons I favor NC...
The two biggest major league teams represent both Carolinas (Carolina Panthers, Carolina Hurricanes). Multiple universities here represent both Carolinas (East Carolina, Western Carolina, Coastal Carolina universities)...
The most important city here is on the border and reps for both Carolinas...
Bro plenty of SCers love Charlotte, too. SC feels deep southern because there's no real big cities there. Charlotte is their major city just like it is in NC, except NC has multiple other cities larger than SC's biggest cities. So the feel is less pronounced...
I guarantee if you ever lived in Charlotte your opinion would shift...

The benefits of living in North Carolina is the lower tax. The state has a flat income tax rate of 5.25%, which is lower than the national average. Additionally, the state sales tax rate is only 4.75%, which is also lower than many other states in the country.
It's affordability
Living expenses in North Carolina are relatively lower, especially in terms of housing costs compared to NY, FL, CA, etc. According to the website Best Places, the overall cost of living index in North Carolina was 94.1, which is lower than the national average of 100. Housing is the biggest factor in the cost of living index, with North Carolina’s housing market index at 78.6, well below the national average of 100. Additionally, whether it’s Fayetteville, Cary Raleigh-Durham or Winston-Salem, utilities and transportation costs are also lower than the national average.
North Carolina’s low cost of living allows residents to have more disposable income and enjoy a higher quality of life. It is also a great place for retirees on a fixed income, as they can stretch their retirement dollars further. Even in big cities like Raleigh and Charlotte, the cost of living is still affordable compared to other metropolitan areas.
Thriving job market
North Carolina also boasts a growing job market. The state’s unemployment rate is consistently below the national average, and many industries are noticing strong job growth.
One industry that is particularly booming in North Carolina is healthcare. The state is home to a number of major healthcare systems, including Duke University Health System, UNC Health Care, and Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center. These systems, along with a number of other hospitals and clinics throughout the state, are creating new job opportunities for healthcare professionals at all levels.
Technology is another industry that is experiencing significant growth in North Carolina. The Research Triangle, in particular, is a hub for tech companies, with major players like IBM, Cisco and SAS calling the area home. As technology continues to evolve and play an increasingly important role in our lives, the demand for skilled tech workers is only going to increase.
Beyond healthcare and technology, North Carolina also offers job opportunities in fields like education, manufacturing and hospitality. The state is home to a number of excellent universities, including Duke and UNC, which provide jobs for professors, researchers and administrators. Manufacturing, while not as dominant as it once was in North Carolina, still employs a significant number of people, particularly in the automotive and aerospace industries. And with a growing tourism industry, there are also plenty of jobs available in hospitality, from hotel management to restaurant work.

Carolina hail to thee....
Me and my wife have been thinking that’s the move as soon as she finishes her masters. I like it that it’s close enough to Charlotte without actually having to be in Charlotte.Living in Fort Mill, SC for a year now. I like it.

Please tell the ignorant in here (not ignorant in a negative sense, they just don't know better) the interchange between Charlotte and South Carolina...
Gullah Geechee is also in North Carolina all the way past Wilmington, to Morehead City and Beaufort and all of that area. It evengoes inland a little ways. My mother's family history goes all back to what is now coastal North Carolina and they were Gullah people. That is why that corridor goes all the way into North Carolina past Jacksonville. There is even a town called Navassa in North Carolina that addresses the Gullah culture there.Been to North Carolina and been to Texas
