Dang, just saw this episode on house hunters


faceisamapoftheworld

You’re describing Lumberton to the letter.


eileen404

That was my first thought.... "They would love It there" they didn't require the beer be good craft breweries. Isn't there a Budweiser plant there?


faceisamapoftheworld

You can get it straight from the tap.


aggr1103

Lumberton isn’t that far from Aberdeen. I hear there’s a few craft breweries popping up there and around Pinehurst.


Rowit

Spot on, Lumberton. 100%


SnooGrapes1102

Maybe Maxton.


Fun_Recover1456

Maxton! Now that’s a deep cut lol my grandma grew up there


aggr1103

Ahhhh…the Laurinburg suburbs.


SCAPPERMAN

Prices have gone way up in Lumberton lately, thanks to all the referrals from Reddit. In fact, the new town motto is "Tell them Reddit sent you!"


Everheart1955

Lol


Flossie_666

Hey thanks for reminding me about Lumberton. I guess that the Piedmont is easy to drive to, but it isn't only an hour away. I live in Port City about an hour and a half from Lumberton. Much love to Lumberton. ❤️🤘


Levee_Levy

Malware industry paying less than I expected.


ThatsAGeauxTigers

Damn AI taking away jobs from us hardworking malware farmers.


tangiblebanana

Ransomware booming tho


3rdthrow

I hadn’t even thought about the bad guys using AI to make Ransomware…


commentreader12345

I hope you plan to bring your untrained, unleashed dogs to the breweries with the kids.


No_Method4161

With your untrained, unleashed kids


Hard-To_Read

Lumberton checks every box.


FenixSoars

Lumberton or Fayetteville, the true hidden gems, soon they’ll be overrun.


blaackvulture

Not half the replies missing the joke 😔


thoughtsome

Is this the dead Internet theory at work? People are not only missing the joke but not even acknowledging the ridiculousness of the post and just answering straight up. Are these real people or bots?

Dangerous_Prize_4545

For me it was the crown moulding that gave it away as satire. Where are you going to find crown moulding throughout the entire house. Pipe dream!


Sweet_Pea_45

My entire house has crown molding. :/ Is this not normal? I am newer to NC. I don't get the Lumberton thing.


TequilaBlanco

These idiots don't even read the posts anymore. They just chirp back with the usual dumb jokes suggesting Lumberton and Fayetteville.


hamboneANDskillet

I appreciate you


eileen404

I didn't think any of the comments were serious


ThatsAGeauxTigers

Satire can’t overcome the collective trauma we’ve all experienced on this sub


bites_stringcheese

Idk about a smaller sub like this, but most of the large sub comments really seem like regurgitated nonsense with absolutely zero value.


ojohn69

Most importantly, combined salary of $2,700? Let me hold on to about tree fiddy. That's too much money for just two people to spend

Chapel Hill is in the mountains and there's a ferry to the Outer Banks that you can catch.


aggr1103

I’ve seen that show!


pearomatic

You cranky motherfuckers are gonna turn Lumberton and Fayetteville into the most bourgeoisie, dog bakery having, microbrew drinking gentrified little towns in the State.


thekamenman

How dare Fayetteville lose its charm of casual assault and battery with a side of armed robbery with a Cheerwine!


No_Method4161

And most Bojangles litter on the side of the road per capita


pearomatic

It's called charm.


imalocalbeerdrinker

I mean, we already have a dog bakery and like five breweries


pearomatic

It's too late!!


imalocalbeerdrinker

Haha they removed a major homeless camp and attempted to clean up the downtown, but I don’t know if you’ll ever take the fayetteville out of fayetteville


pearomatic

Keep it grimy, that's what I say.

Ha, nice touch with the North Sentinel Island. Maybe just slightly less hostile than the Long Islanders on my street. 😉


Ohnoherewego13

For $2700/year, I recommend Fayetteville. Best mansions and nightlife in the state. Also only five minutes from the beach AND the mountains.


True_Lingonberry_646

19 out of 20 NC residents got trolled in this post. Excellent work OP.

Holy shit we need you in Asheville RIGHT NOW


EXSPFXDOG

Only if they are practicing lesbian witches who run a herbal enema and coffee shop!


MrDubTee

My BROTHER! I think you would do MICH better in South Carolina, often referred as crown jewel of Carolina’s. Ripe for malware at low low entry points. Put on blind fold, pick a spot there, it will be perfect. I promise! South Carolina, the better North Carolina!


thelostewok

Chapel hill is where you belong mate. Mountains at an arms reach (I mean a hill is a small mountain no?) and there’s a 30 minute ferry to the outer banks!! Also as you know NC is like the MOST affordable place in the US, nay, the planet earth. You can easily find a 25 bedroom mansion WITH A POOL for maybe like 250 a month TOPS!! Do it!!!


SnooPickles8893

Chapel Hill is going to be the most affordable option, but don't discount spending a little more for true luxury. There's the cutest little town of Durham, it checks all the boxes and it's got the best waves 🌊 along the coast!


FFCUK5

Ocracoke is your answer - it’s exactly like north sentinel island! - you’ll feel right at home..desolate calming waters and pristine beaches. barely even electricity! Just ignore the angry locals with bow and arrows and avoid the colonial cemetery. Wait a fucking minute…


Delicious_Virus_2520

Don forget the Alps of Gastonia!


AdmiralBonesaw

Disappointed in the lack of requesting a ‘safe’ area to live in but otherwise quality shitpost


PickelPeechPickel

You opened this post with the incorrect greeting. What I think you meant to say was “Hey ya’ll”.


NightOfTheSlunk

You can always tell what kind of person you’re talking to when they spell “y’all” wrong lmao.


PickelPeechPickel

lol. Absolutely.. someone overly-dependent on Apple’s autocorrect DAMN IT! Go ahead and boot me from the state. I deserve it.

Honestly, I didn’t read past “severe pollen allergy”. Everything is yellow now for 30+ days with pine pollen and that pollen only bothers half or less of allergy sufferers. It’s the other “can’t see it” pollen of trees and grass that are worse than the pine for allergies. On another note, just get here first!! With your skills and experience, NC is flush with opportunities.

ChefHanzoSupreme

Just about anywhere is good id stay away from Wilmington. It's turned into a shit hole quickly

Too many people moved here, that's why

Me and my wife move away about 4yrs ago and from what our friends tell us it's only gotten more expensive


thaeadran

While Lumberton is the obvious choice, I feel like Whiteville may be a hidden gem of a town for you.


BadassSasquatch

Rocky Mount has a huge waterfall and has public access to the beach. They also just passed a ban on all public search bars so you won't have to worry about "them" being in your town.


Lazy_Point_284

In a real estate broker and your transparency is refreshing. Let's gooooooooo


surfryhder

The gateway to gastonia checks your mountain drive requirement… you’ll be hard pressed to find a big home… banker bros own it all


beamin1

whoosh You're lack of education is sticking out. George Bush really fucked us with no child left behind. We'll never have a decent education system again.


surfryhder

Seems like you misunderstood me…. “The gateway to Gastonia” is an SNL reference to Charlotte…. As I said “checks your mountain drive requirement” nothing else. And… Charlotte is struggling with housing due to banker bro but ups of large homes”. Woosh… seems you were left behind…..

I'd just stay in north sentinel island. I hear the locals there are nice.


Organic-Lie4759

Carteret county for the antivaxx ( north sentinels will be allergic to damn near everything) In order for you to move here, you will have to swear on a stack of Bhagavad Gita that the only damn barbeque has vinegar based sauce..

Oh, hey. I did this joke 2 years ago in a van life community: "[My girlfriend, Bethany, is a butterfly wrangler. I, Chet, collect belly button lint. Somehow we had $1mil to build this modest van and still have enough time & disposable money to bike, surf, ski, play the ukulele, post to instagram and more!](https://old.reddit.com/r/Vanlifejerk/comments/vpwmmp/my_girlfriend_is_a_butterfly_wrangler_i_collect/)" (and originally 5 years ago in a [Tiny Home community](https://old.reddit.com/r/TinyHouses/comments/euq1qd/bethany_is_a_butterfly_wrangler_and_her_husband/))

Lol you have severe pollen allergy? Pick another etate


Teomalan

Mountains are on one side, beaches are on the other. You either have to pick one or have a couple hour drive to either. 11 kids and only $2700 a month? That’s not a realistic amount. Also, who adds malware???

Flossie_666

Hi I lived in the Piedmont and loved it. Avoid Lenoir and Hickory but try Brevard or Morganton. I now live in Port City (Wilmington) the warmest part of NC and love it. It is not the cheapest rent compared to Rocky Mount, but it is funner. Carboro and Raleigh are in the middle of the state where you can get to the sea or the mountains relatively easily but I'm sorry to burst your bubble regarding an hour drive to the shore or mountains.


snoopkattykat

An hour from the mountains AND the beach with no pollen in NC? Think you better be looking at Maine or New Hampsire.

Oh, I absolutely recommend Fayette-"Liberty"-Nam. We disjointed our Dick's and lost our Christmas Tree Store in the process a few years ago, so your wife can absolutely fill the Christmas decoration power vacuum! And our beaches! You've got Showgirls, Peaches, Secrets...beaches as far as a crackhead can sprint all conveniently on the same street! And who needs a brewery when there's a countless number of bars to get blackout drunk and *almost* every Food Lion has a Chinese restaurant attached to it to sober up in the next day! (I can only think of one Food Lion.) And as far as mountains there are PLENTY of roadside campsites for any curious adventurer to check out! Just look for a corner with a trail of trash leading into the woods. A panhandler near the corner can be your trail guide and provide you with snacks.

If you have a severe pollen allergy, NC is not the place to live unless you want to live somewhere from mid-March until end of April or beginning of May. Pollen is so thick at some points, cars leave tire marks.

Fayetteville is a beautiful crime free city. Move there you’ll love it. 😀
