Just for my buddy Gonzo

Unread post by Nugget49 » Wed Aug 19, 2015 8:28 am

I know you spend a lot of time thinking about the fine town of Harrisburg and its proximity to the University. Maybe one day you can live there! :lol:
The Charlotte region has two cities in the top 50 of the new Money magazine ranking of the “50 Best Places to Live in America.” Harrisburg in Cabarrus County was No. 41; Stallings in Union County was No. 46.

This year marks Harrisburg’s debut on MONEY’s list, but it’s easy to see why the town is booming. Great jobs in nearby Charlotte fuel the area’s 10.6% projected job growth. And multi-million-dollar expansions by local employers like Pepsi Bottling Ventures are poised to attract more development. This solid employment scene has led Harrisburg to the highest homeownership rate in the county (90%), yet property taxes remain affordable.

Odd. Nowhere did they mention that Harrisburg was a college town. :lol:

Congrats on the ranking, UNCc. I actually grew up right next to Stallings (Indian Trail) and I currently live near Apex (Durham).

Suburban North Carolina is the place to be.
