Well not just New York, but it kind of seems like the Northeastern United States is making an exodus, and one of their main southern targets is good ole Asheville North Carolina. Why Asheville? Why not Charleston, Savannah, or Wilmington? Because Asheville has the best balance of everything. Beautiful mountains, great communities, and good living. The people are friendly, the diversity allows for just about anyone to fit in here, and the great outdoors is at your doorstep. A big city just isn’t cutting it anymore. Want a big city? You can drive from Asheville to Greenville SC in about an hour, Charlotte NC in two hours, and Atlanta GA in less than 4 hours. But having a place such as Asheville North Carolina to call home is priceless.
