I look to be working in Winston but want to live north of the area within a 30min or less commute time. I have a family so schools and area are important. I would like to hear your thoughts on any surrounding areas? Some I have given thought to are King and Pilot Mountain. Also what is the market for Massage therapist as the is my wife occupation? Thank you all for your time.
Any reason why you're looking north of the city? The best schools are more west and northwest of the city. Look at Clemmons, Lewisville and Pfafftown. West Forsyth and Reagan are probably the best high schools in Forsyth County, if we're talking regular public schools (not charter or private or magnet).
I don't know what the job market is like for massage therapists per se, but there are a good many places to get a massage in Winston, from chains like Massage Envy and Hand and Stone to upscale spas. I know lots of people who get them regularly and business seems brisk.
And you'd probably be closer to those jobs if you stay closer to Winston. Keep in mind that you don't have to go half an hour out to find safe areas and space to roam. We love on the northwest side within city limits and have great schools and plenty of space space for our needs.
