We are looking for areas that have good schools, and are family oriented. We love pontoon boating - do not know if that is possible on the coast - because the boat can't handle salt water.
How are property taxes.
Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated.

Carteret County has the lowest property taxes of any county in NC. However, your insurance will eat up some of those savings.
The county schools are very good. We have plenty of pontoon boats both on the White Oak River and in the Intracoastal Waterway.
The Cape Carteret, Emerald Isle area is a great place to live. There are lots of family oriented festivals. The beach areas in the county are sandwiched between the 158,000 acres of the Croatan National Forest and the miles of beaches in the Cape Lookout National Seashore.
Check out
