Default NPR Story: "Living the California Dream in North Carolina"
I heard this story on National Public Radio & thought it might be of interest to a few people here.

Living the California Dream In North Carolina : NPR
Quote:
For years, people have been drawn to the west coast in search of the California Dream. The Golden State's high housing prices and car-clogged interstates have some residents leaving California to live out their dreams elsewhere, however. Charlotte, North Carolina is one of those places.
The interviewer talks mostly to transplants who moved to Charlotte, but I think people in other parts of NC might identify with what the interviwees have to say.
