Hi, I need sound advice from those of you who know Raliegh/Durham, Charlotte and Tampa. My wife and I have been relatively successful here in Atlanta as professionals. We are not rich, but we make a good living. I’m in corporate sales, she is a real estate agent. As you all probably know Atlanta is the new Los Angeles of the south, ie 24 hour traffic, massive amounts of illegal immigrants, thousands of Katrina refugees and unspeakable crimes. We’ve decided that we are going to relocate but need your input.

We hear that Charlotte is like Atlanta circa 1990 w/ lots to do and a thriving construction boom;
We hear that Raliegh/Durham is quaint, affordable w/ tech jobs there;
We hear that Tampa is very picturesqe w/ beaches but the Florida economy is driving people out in droves.
Please give me your feedback to dispel or confirm these myths. This will be a great help in our final decision! Thanks!
