    Far too expensive! 2 bedroom apartments are renting upwards of 3k plus. In an area that one needs to be reliant on a personal vehicle, rents should never be that high. In places like NYC, Boston, DC etc where train systems are in place, residents can easily survive without a vehicle.

    You never mention public translortation. I no longer drive, but I can get anywhere I need to using the buses. Plus, because of my age (80) I ride for free. Plus. I live right across the street from the goraleigh central terminal, so that makes using the buses even more convenient.

    • @LivinginRaleighTV
      @LivinginRaleighTV  Pƙed 8 měsĂ­ci

      Sadly, public transportation is lacking in Raleigh. We do have a bus system. The closer you live to Downtown Raleigh/Midtown Raleigh, generally the better options for bus routes. There are also options to live close to grocery stores, etc without needing the bus as often such as Village District and North Hills. Hope that helps!

    • @LivinginRaleighTV

      There isn’t really a SE Raleigh so it’s usually just considered South Raleigh or East Raleigh. If you look at a map of Raleigh, that area SouthEast of Raleigh is very patchy, with Garner taking up the majority of the area. It’s going to be very similar to Garner and South/East Raleigh in price.

    A lot of these west Raleigh places could also easily be considered downtown. For instance, one can easily walk from some downtown locations to places like The Village District, and even parts of NC State.
    My favorite thing to do in South Raleigh is visit the Howling Cow creamery at NC State's dairy education center for fresh ice cream that can be eaten on the porch of the creamery while viewing the cows that provided the milk/cream for it.

There you can buy hand dipped or freshly packed pints. Out back there's a covered porch where you can sit on a rocking chair and watch the cows. Or, you can just walk across a short field and get up close and more personal with them. It's a nice outing.
