Cockroaches- yes, you will see maybe 1 a month? With an exterminator doing barrier spray probably less.
Mosquitoes- yes, they suck. With mosquito barrier spray in your backyard is vastly improved. Bug spray if you really want to go hiking but it's quite warm in July August so probably not much of that anyway.
Humidity- it's really not as bad as some say. Miami and Atlanta definitely worse. It's hottest where it is hard to do outdoorsy stuff really from late June till about early September. Plenty of nice days in May, even June and late September and most of October.
West nile- never heard of any cases here.

West Nile virus does occur here Also Raleigh’s humidity is equivalent and actually slighly more so than Atlanta in the summer when looking at dew point.
