Rnc2mbfl was pretty on point with that statement. The Triangle's growth and prosperity are built on fixed institutions that really aren't going anywhere; its future is very, very bright.
I agree, but neither are Charlotte and Nashville. Maybe it was just the way I took it.
Major city to Alabama? Sure. To the South? Definitely not.
Birmingham has over 1 million people in the metro and is almost exactly the same size as New Orleans. Birmingham is larger than any city in South Carolina, Arkansas, Mississippi, and is the same size as New Orleans. Outside of Atlanta it's tied for the largest city in the deep south.
Tell me again why Birmingham is not a major city in the south?
If you legit only look at Raleigh's metro and not the Triangle as a whole, I have nothing else to say to you.
