I am hopeful that my family will relocate to NC around the Triad area this summer. I immigrated, legally
, from the Philippines in 2000 to New Jersey. I have twins, born here, that are going to be in 4th grade in the next school year. We are looking to reside in the Greensboro 27410 area or High Point 27265 area.
Any residents in the areas (or Triad in general) that have any feedback or comments that we should be aware of?
1. Quality of education in the areas I mentioned? - The reason that I picked these areas is that Realtor.com has high ratings for school in these neighborhoods.
2. Taxes? How much tax should I expect for a 3 bedroom single family home?
3. I noticed in city-data.com that there are only a few Asians in the Triad area, is this a problem?
4. Based on city-data.com, crime rate in High Point and Greensboro is showing higher than the State and National average, should I be worried about this?
5. Government service - Is the service (ie. Sewer, garbage, etc) good?
6. Recreation - we are not really fond of nightlife so it does not quite bother us that some around here mentioned the lack of it in the Triad area. We do like Nature activities and already, I like that Hanging Rock - with a lake for swimming is not too far.
Any feedback or comments, pros and cons, are very much appreciated.
