You are quite ignorant, but maybe that's what you need to believe to feel better about living in a declining part of the country.  [/quote]

doh

I'd be ok with the big metro areas like Atlanta or Raleigh/Durham, but not the rest of the state.  I'm Asian American, in a biracial marriage. Not only do I want diversity, but I need my ethnic grocery stores.

Right now, I despise humid weather, but I know that as I get older, I'll want the warm/humid weather.  So, we have talked about moving to maybe the Raleigh area when we are in our 60s/70s. That's about as south as I want to go.[/quote]

I grew up in Raleigh and the great things about it are: the weather, the music (in part because of the proximity to so many colleges and universities and all f their offerings), and how friendly the people are.[/quote]

Did you see racism in Raleigh? It's pretty diverse there I think. How does the summers in Raleigh compare to summers in DC? Is it hotter? More humid?[/quote]

Raleigh is in general hotter than here, by at least five degrees.  Honestly, it doesn't make much difference in the summer (hot is hot) but it makes the summers much more bearable.  The huge plus about the weather is that it's much sunnier there in the winters.  That makes it more bearable.  Also, the beach is two hours away which is a huge benefit.  No need to cross the bay bridge or deal with Maryland not wanting you to get to Delaware.  Yes, it's diverse.  There aren't as many high quality restaurants as in DC, but food is much better than it once was.

As a previous poster mentioned, every winter I think about how I should move down there.  After I retire, I may well winter down there, but for now, my life is here.[/quote]

Should be "makes the winters much more bearable."[/quote]
