NC was invaded by Yankees paying way too much money for houses long ago, ever since Money magazine listed The Raleigh/Durham/ Chapel Hill area as the top place to live(sometime around 92?), the inflated prices went thru the roof. Half of Ohio is doing the same thing around here. After personally visited Ohio, I can understand their want to leave, if you come down here, haggle with the prices a bit, don't pay thru the nose like most of them do, keep the South affordable if you can
