Yes they are! :)

Thank you for watching and coming to comment. You have a pretty cool channel yourself. What part of the world do you call home now?

@@EverythinglivinginCharlotteNC Thank you! I transitioned from full time RV travel to part time travel and have a house north of the Winston-Salem, Greensboro area to be near family, some here and some in Raleigh.

@@Will-f9e thank you watching!! Oh wow!! That’s super cool!! What was your favorite project in that house?

Thank you for watching and coming to comment!! Where did you move from?

Thank you for watching and coming to comment! Gastonia like anywhere has areas that need some rejuvenation, and his has some areas that are really nice. Its gotten a bad wrap over the years and that has over shadowed some of the awesome places but i really think its headed in the right direction. Lets see what happens in the next 5-10 years

Thank you for watching and coming to comment!! you make some good points. Did you watch long enough to see the cons i pointed out?

@@EverythinglivinginCharlotteNC Yes I did. Was in Gastonia for several hours yesterday too, and everything I stated was on full display.

@@danielanderson8503 that’s fair 😎 do you drive Gastonia for work?

I’m sure Gastonia like most towns in America have a seedy nabe and then a good nabe. Even Yonkers NY just north of the Bronx has two sides

@@MbisonBalrog Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. I just finished filming some very nice areas of Gastonia i this next video may surprise some people!!

Thank you for watching and coming to comment and giving great examples of delicious food. Yes i think every other person here is from Buffalo or Long Island lol. What is your favorite Tai place. The Greek diners were some of my favorite growing up.

LOL, Growth will have some pain points. How long have you lived in York?

@@EverythinglivinginCharlotteNC since 1993:and there's more cons in York believe me like how they love to spend on dumb shit but can't fix the roads around here

Thank you for watching and coming to leave a comment. What makes you say were full. I'm not here to argue I'm just curious as to your reasoning?

@@EverythinglivinginCharlotteNC I was being facetious more so directed at the Floridians than the capacity. It was in reference to the drama but I am well aware that we have our own.

@@Bumblebee0819 lol its all good! :)

@@GinaBellotto-x6w absolutely!!

I swim and boat in these lakes weekly during the summer its a ton of fun!!

Thank you for watching and coming to give constructive criticism. Did you watch enough to see the cons i covered, its not all rainbows and unicorns in Gastonia.

Of course responses to videos helping people choose their next location often get comments like yours. People on the move could be for military or retirement or because of a certain part of the country shares their values. One thing I find so quirky is that people mention California in 99 of those complaints like only Californians move lol. Those checking out areas could be from anywhere. They have their own reasons and my main point here us that people watching these videos are already going to move. This realtor doesn't go to and fro throughout the nation finding lost souls who have no idea where to live and then forcing them to move to Gastonia North Carolina through some brilliant video LOL. In the process of considering a move, people look up specific areas that they are already interested in so that they can compare them. Realtors don't make people move to areas. They simply show us things that we cannot see on our own and make our decision making process easier. If videos like this did not exist, my husband and I over the last five years would have had to take airplane trips and hotel lodging to the top 10 locations we were considering. We can certainly find statistics and data online. But videos give you a sense of place. Especially when it comes to smaller towns, many have incredible statistics and you don't know why on Earth they are so inexpensive. And then all you have to do is see one video and you will find a bunch of rundown buildings downtown and you realize okay, this town is just kind of yucky so it's not for me. Videos like this save people time and money. And I for one appreciate them greatly. But seriously on your comment, I just don't think that your idea is realistic. Who on Earth is going to look up Gastonia, North Carolina unless they already had some idea that they wanted to be in that general area and then begin scoping out towns. And so, like me people are probably considering areas nearby and just needed some eyes on the ground to know whether it can stay in consideration or we can check it off the list.

@@kreese316 THANK YOU! As a Realtor and the creator of this video and many others i think this is the best response i have ever seen. I may just copy and paste it to every one else's snarky response! What area did you ultimately decide on?

Dude that's almost everywhere in the United States

Thank you for watching and coming to comment, It is greatly appreciated. LOL You are correct we do have all of those things thank you for pointing out the obvious. Michael i don't want your money. I want to help you and anyone else make an informed decision on a place you possibly thought of living, again thank you for watching and have an awesome day!

lol Yep!!

South Carolina is even worse. Them water moccasins will chase you and even swim up to your boat and then get in it to get you. They are vicious.

@@SliceOfSabby thank you!!

@@ronbrock738 I understand. are you still in the area? Indian trail is really nice. When’s the last you were in Gastonia?

@EverythinglivinginCharlotteNC 4 years ago. I found so many other towns south of Charlotte more appealing. It just wasn't for me. In GreenvillS c now ,and it's like a different planet. I just wasn't enjoying my time there. King's Mountain I enjoyed more than Gastonia. Good luck to you and your channel.

Hey thank you for the well wishes! I'm glad you found a place your happy. Greenville has a lot going on.

@@rravenell you are welcome! what were your decisions based on? We should jump on a call of your open to it ☎️

I'm sorry you had a bad experience. What part of the world were you visiting from?

I did that also for a long time. What part of the world to you call home?

@@EverythinglivinginCharlotteNC New Orleans

@@jboss729 right on! Is there anything you miss about Charlotte?

@EverythinglivinginCharlotteNC I never lived there was just born there and raised in New Orleans.

That is awesome to here! What brought you to the area?

Its a cool place with its own vibe and character! You should check out there down town for date night.

This is a concern across the country, the cost of Health insurance is nuts. There are excellent facilities all over the city plus your never to far from major medical centers or just easy pop in and out facility's like the urgent care facilities that are scattered around the region. As far as just a pure cost perspective I'm not 100% sure some of it may be relative.

Thank you for commenting! How did you happen to come across this video?

hey sorry that's how it was perceived. There are some amazing and charming stores in York. What i mean is for "mall" type shopping or experience you will have to travel.

Thank you! Yall were amazing to work with, and your home is coming together beautifully!!

Congratulations. What’s prompting your move. Job made you, life dictated, your looking for something new?

Hopefully buy land, build a home, and expand my business eventually

ooh man congratulations!! What type of business do you have?

Thank you for watching and coming to leave a comment. What worries you about New Yorkers moving in I'm not here to argue I'm just curious is all.

Thank you!

hi great question. while at the moment its hard to put an exact number on it. in 2021 it had a population around 40K-45k Here is a good article with some more information on the growth of indian land. www.wccbcharlotte.com/2024/03/27/lancaster-county-is-fastest-growing-county-around-charlotte/

Thank you Sabby.

you are 100% correct. I hope the city continues to implement the light rail train idea we shall see what the future holds for it.

Thank you for watching and leaving valuable feedback.

Thank you for watching and coming to comment and give me valuable feed back. The influx people has strained the infrastructure for sure. What are steps you think the city/county could take to make things better and to grow responsibly?

@@EverythinglivinginCharlotteNC define grow responsibly, Realtors dont care they just want to make a commission no matter how congested it becomes

Thank you, It was a pleasure! Tega Cay is a beautiful place.

Thank you for watching and providing valuable feed back. What is your definition of beauty?

Thank you for watching!! What is your favorite thing about clover? ☘️

@EverythinglivinginCharlotteNC the southern hospitality of course! ❤️ Doors being held open for me, yes Ma'am, the friendly waves on the back roads as I drive to the bank, community helping one another. It would be nice to get a few more restaurants and small businesses in downtown. I also love how close I am to the smokey mountains and the beach!! Location, Location, Location!!

@@halfpintpete5630 This made me SMILE, i LOVE TO HEAR IT!! If you could change or add something to clover what would it be?

@EverythinglivinginCharlotteNC I love the outdoors. So, with that being said, a trail system would be awesome. I currently drive to Kings Mountain to hike their trails. Clean up/tear down the old abandoned buildings on 321.

Thank you for watching and giving valuable feed back your are 100% correct.

Yes!! Great advice. We love windjammer😎😎😎
