[TriLUG] [offtopic] Considering a move to RDU area

[Jim Ray]

I moved from Charlotte to Raleigh in 1995 and have no regrets. Charlotte
wasn't big enough for me and my ex.

I don't recall a difference in cost of living and found traffic to be
less.

As for the sport bike, well, it has been too many years since I rode yet
enjoyed leaning back on a Harley as opposed to bending over on a sport
bike. I admit ignorance on the sport bike, though, since I've never had
the pleasure.

You are closer to the mountains in Charlotte. That's my favorite spot to
ride.

The business climate has been good. Can't say what tomorrow will bring.
Today, it is good.

The company where I work grew 50% last fiscal year.

Subject: [TriLUG] [offtopic] Considering a move to RDU area

so... I am considering a move to the RDU area... and am heavily leaning
towards the yes side.  Having been a member of TriLug for a while (the
email
list) I know there is a rather active Linux community, but I have a few
other questions.

1)  How does the cost of living compare to the cost of living in
Charlotte
(for those that have moved from the Charlotte area to the RDU area)
2) I have a sport bike... anyone on here ride know what the motorcycle
community up that way is like?
3) as with most things, you can give lots of good reasons to make a move
or
to buy something... but can anyone give me any good reasons to consider
as
to why I wouldn't want to move to the area? eg. shrinking IT industry
...
assuming it is

thanks,
jsn
