Clean air, safe streets, abundant wildlife, snow-capped mountains, friendly people, low taxes, lots of freedoms and liberties.... What more can be said?.... No other state comes close, except maybe Idaho.
Hi Janet, great to see you and the family. 10 years sure has flown by! We are now four years in North Carolina. My only regret: we didn't move here sooner. Love to you and your beautiful family.
@@RadiantRealty We are in Maggie Valley just west of Asheville. It is a laid back community with friendly people and a hand full of friends from the Stuart - Jensen Beach area that have moved up here as well. After 40 years in Florida it was definitely time to move. We both grew up in Michigan so North Carolina suits us just fine.
@@RonRosenzweig I've been hearing that the homeowner insurance costs in FL have gotten out of control. Sounds like you made the right move. I forgot that you guys grew up in MI also. That's so fun that some friends moved with you as well. :)
The ribeye at the Chop House in Livingston is the best! I have visited the Flathead Valley the last 2 summers and I thought y’all had great shopping. So many cute small businesses.
Yay, I'm glad you enjoyed the shops during your visit. Yes, for tourists I think we definitely have so many cute shops in the various downtowns. Did you have a favorite?
@@rosaesq Montana Scene is a great one and they have locations in Kalispell and Bigfork also. I need to pop into the trading company. It's been awhile. Thanks for sharing. :)
Least favorite thing you forgot to add: realtors still trying to sell our state to out-of-staters looking for second or third homes when people who live here can barely afford it. You seem like a sweet lady and I can't blame you for capitalizing on the rush to move here. It's just frustrating for people who already call this home. My favorite things used to be the small-town feel everywhere you go, the quiet, and the lack of traffic. Those are gone since C19 and the mad flood of people moving here (especially the traffic - it's completely absurd now in the Flathead).
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Mathew. How long have you lived in Montana? The growth is frustrating for many. I don't feel justified complaining since we were also implants a decade ago and are so thankful every day that we get to call Montana home.
Snow blowers are very helpful! Yep

That's amazing. Where in NC are you guys? Selah is on her way back from there today. What do you love about NC?
