Don't you live in Raeford now? That's the country
.......
City slickers who prefer some space but still city amenities are how so many transplants repopulated the South. These southern cities
are cities, but cities with more space than you get in the West and North. I live in North Raleigh, just got back home Monday (leaving again Saturday back west), and every time I come back from somewhere outside the South I'm reminded of just how different these cities are built here...
They are cities though, you get all the amenities of living in a city, but most southern cities are suburban-ish by nature...
