My Dh just is in no rush to move I understand his family is here...mine isn't and he never lived in a house until he was a grown man. But doesn't he want more for the kids than living in a townhouse with no yard to run around and play or living in an apartment? Not that it is bad to live like this but we spoke of playsets pools etc in our yard does he just say that to make me happy? I don't want to live in VA. Never wanted to settle here I was on my way to Atlanta when I moved here with my company. Sadly they never went any further south. My DH is an amazing man supporting the family so I don't have to work full time. He coaches basketball and has made a name for himself here locally and he has spoken to people about getting a paid coaching job and I see how he would have to start over in NC but how much will they pay him here 3500 for the year it is a part time job. If he has the resume bring it to NC and get jobs. I don't want to move somewhere around my friends were are moving to his best friends town...should be interesting if we ever make it. But I am unable to get him to say yes or no. I just did a search for 3 bed 1.5 bath homes in Raleigh for 125 or under and 150+ houses came up. Some were really cute. We are just starting out we don't need a mini mansion and the payment was around 800. So that would be better than our 1475 month rent. People tell us we might make less money in NC well my DH is a mailman so he would need to get the right route to make a certain amount of money and I would need to work my a$$ off with Maddy Moo and we could live a nice life. But do I just go along with whatever he has planned and just live here in a townhouse and someday have the house of my dreams. My girls want to move they see me looking at houses and ask is that our new house? When will you find our new house mommy.
If I only had a crystal ball!

    we just moved to the raleigh area end of March 2005.... So far, my family (including kids) absolutely love it! There really is a lot to do here, and people are so friendly. He really shouldnt have trouble finding a job (actually I just saw a help wanted sign at our post office) as the population growth is crazy here. On some things, prices are higher here than where we moved from (south florida; for example.. groceries, water, daycare ) but other things are sooo much cheaper (e.g. housing, property tax). There is an incredible amount of things to do here with the kids. the parks are great, hiking is great, community programs, etc)...

    There are A LOT of people who are moving here. Many people that I have met have moved here in the last few months. I would say that most, if not all are happy that they have moved here.
