      @@ernestojr.acosta972 No, Wake Forest NC is about a 2-hour drive from Wake Forest University Hospital. Wake Forest University actually began in Wake Forest NC as Wake Forest College. The college moved from Wake Forest NC to Winston Salem in 1956, and the former Wake Forest College became home to Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary.

    Hi I’m looking into Raleigh... but I would like a small town rural feel... with very low crime...would you suggest Wake Forest or Holly Springs?

    • @MichaelSanders
      @MichaelSanders  Před 3 lety

      Dee, thanks for your comment! You really can't go wrong with either town; however, my answer to you depends on several variables, such as budget, commute, lifestyle, etc. I'm a Wake County native and have lived here my entire life, so I can probably direct you to the best area.

    Would have been nice if they also used a normal digital camera - because the iPhone technology or smart phone technology, has this extreme perspective deformation and we technically see only the road… Would have been nice if we could see some people in these videos. I watch this video and I’m left with the impression that it was either shot early in the morning with her is no one - or simply there aren’t many people in Wake Forest....

      @@mamabear1380 Thanks SO much for the comment, I appreciate it! A little background on this video: It was actually shot when I knew traffic wouldn't be an issue (Sunday morning) so it would be easier to show things without getting slowed down by people and traffic. This particular video wasn't really meant to highlight traffic per se, but to show viewers where things are located and where things are in relation to one another. I do think viewers are sometimes specifically curious about traffic (I get asked about it a lot); so for the videos I do about traffic I try to pick times that are the most representative of overall traffic (not necessarily Sunday mornings, and not necessarily weekday morning/evening commute either) so I try and shoot those at times that aren't necessarily the 'best' times of day, but neither the 'worst' times of day so viewers can get sort of an 'average' view of what traffic might be like during a given time period. It's tough to do because no matter what time of day I shoot traffic it's only a snapshot in time, I'd really have to do tons of traffic videos to give a wider idea of what traffic is like over a wider time frame, but I'm pretty sure those would bore people to tears 🤣
