[quote=Anonymous]We moved back to MD after being in Raleigh, NC for 8 yrs. It was a great place to live until we had kids. I've never, ever had to pay so much attention to a school board. In one swoop diversity was throw out the window for schools, teachers were made out to be bad guys and so much more. The change in leadership in NC has been like a big ass wrecking ball....and I voted for the current governor. Don't believe the bs of it being all super cheap with uneducated people. The Triangle area (Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill) has re-branded itself and changed the swing of the population. The jobs here now are very much tech and finance related. For those who are poor it's a tough ass place to live. Current leadership could care less. With all the being said we lived in a 4bd 4 ba home (brick), 2 car oversized garage, bonus and playroom on 1/2 acre. Purchase price was $350,000. Now back in MD I'm still shell shocked at prices and quality compared to NC. We only moved because of a better business opportunity. Our kids were going to a private Montessori which only cost $11,000 a year.  [/quote]
