Lewisville west of Winston-Salem is a quiet, quaint town with friendly people and easy access to hospitals. I'm hoping my newly retired parents will retire here soon. Good luck!
Valdese in Burke County. A lot of history, they have several events and festivals during the year, and great eateries! It is a walkable town as well. Burke County is home to two popular mountains: Table rock and Hawksbill and great fishing is all around the area. You should be able to connect with like-minded people there.
Hi Diana. I have lived in Southern Pines for 9 years. I moved here from the Midwest. In the last few years I have researched areas all across North Carolina, into Tennessee, South Carolina and Virginia. If you would like to send me a personal message, I am happy to try and help. It is a huge decision moving to a new place. If I can help at all, I would like to.
I am new to the forum, Just learning my way around. I am relocating to NC from Fl. I would love to have your help in finding the area that would be right for me. I did befriend you. Is this how I can email you directly, if you would consider helping me?

You could check into Cleveland County, Cherryville/Kings Mountain/Shelby area, or Gaston County, Mount Holly/Belmont. Some quaint areas, some rural areas, low housing prices, lots of older 1950's - 1970's homes, just an hour from Charlotte, about two hours down the mountain from Asheville. Lots of Seniors, Senior Centers.
Very hot and humidity in the summer though, but beautiful Autumn/Spring seasons, mild winters.
hi diana, can you research share on nice retirement cities to live in NC or East TN, as i have been trying to get a place, but hate Asheville where my family lives. Too much crime and visitors.
