[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]The style of urban (“urban”) planning in Raleigh is very typical of any Sunbelt metro that grew quickly in the 80s/90s/2000s[/b] and the weather can be very humid, but otherwise it doesn’t really feel all that southern. Most people there are either transplants (mainly from the north) or immigrants. There are some really good schools, some middle of the road schools, and some bad schools - just like anywhere else in the country. [/quote] To me, this is a very bland & car-centric style of urban planning. I was in the North Hills area of Raleigh a few months ago and found it utterly soulless and devoid of character, an Anyplace, USA. My BIL lived in Durham for a while and it was also just meh to me - good BBQ though. [/quote]
