[quote=Anonymous]How about Davidson NC right outside of Charlotte?! Not a cheap place to live but certainly less costly than the DMV. It's less than 30 min to Charlotte and its fine airport. Milder climate-check. Four seasons-check. Proximity to culture and airport-check. Davidson itself is a walkable, friendly and albeit small upscale college town with Davidson College very well integrated into the life of the Town. The college has only 2000 students so college students do not overwhelm the town but add some liveliness and energy. Lake Norman and its recreational opportunities are right there as well. It has a politically diverse community that leans blue but Republicans wouldn't feel out of place either. My wife and I discovered Davidson when touring colleges with our kids. We fell in love with the area and rented lake houses there for several years before buying. We currently split time here and in Davidson and some of our closest friends are considering the area as well. [/quote]
