North Carolina is a long way from Texas and Florida in more ways than just mileage.
While agreeing that each to his own is the one-true-path, let me list a few things about L.A. (where we both live ) that I won't have in New Bern NC.
Traffic.
California Drivers.
"Ghetto Birds" a.k.a. helicopters overhead at 2-3 am every morning.
Fire engine and police sirens all day - every day.
Drunks leaving the bars and walking down the street singing/arguing/loudly talking at 2-3 am every morning.
Rent for a one bedroom apartment in a bad neighborhood at $1000 a month or more.
State income tax that exceeds 10%.
1000's of sick homeless (mostly mentally ill or drug addicted) people wandering the area.
Crappy school systems with 32-36 kids per class.
I could go on...
