How is Lenoir looking?
I like Hickory, but think it is starting to get too built up. I was thinking of moving further west, maybe Lenoir? How are things there? Are they starting to get built up or are they depressed still. I know that Google has something going on there, but is it helping or hurting the community? Thanks for the input!!

II might be wrong about Google but when we moved here a few months back that is what we heard.

Oh yeah, Google is here bigtime!
News-Topic, Lenoir, NC, 28645 - news, sports, editorials, obituaries
Their plant is so highly specialized that few of the employees are from the local area. Most have been hired from outside the local area and transferred in.
I am in the job market in the area, and even the admin assistants need a BA or a BS. That's ok, I understand. Getting a job with Google is definitely a star in the cap! They can't hire just anyone, right? LOL |

I hope in two or three years thay will hire locals since they can get a collage education here. That would be so nice and if not at least the economy in the area will pick up. That would bring jobs to many . |
