I pick NC. Florida is like living in a tropical version of NJ. If I wanted to live in NJ, I'd just move to NJ.
Don't think for a minute that NC isn't going through its' own "Jerseyfication."
My sister's suburban Charlotte neighborhood is chock full of former NJ residents. My niece, also in Charlotte, is married to a Jersey Boy (and he is adorable...does your state proud, Jerseyites).
^^^ Charlotte is like mini-NYC now. I definitely agree. That whole CLT area has changed a lot and I hear the driving and the friendliness is definitely a thing of the past compared to what it used to be like. But I didnt live in CLT, and I wouldnt move there from FL or I'd just see the same stuff I'm trying to escape.
^^Yeah, I live in Charlotte now and I have been here since '97. The friedliness is gone and all the transplants have messed up the driving conditions down here. Must be those Jersey folks. LOL! Just messing.

No you're not.
Hey, they dont call it mini-NYC for nothing. Man has it changed though.
I picked both because I live in both. But, if push came to shove, I'd probably pick Raleigh over Miami, thus NC over FL. I wouldn't live anywhere else in Florida but there a few places in NC that I'd consider if Raleigh weren't an option.

ahahaha! that made me chuckle! Charlotte gets a few skyscrapers and a light rail line and all of a sudden they are a mini Manhattan! Sounds like the Atlanta syndrome! They think they are the New York of the South also!
Sorry but for me it's either Florida and it's densely populated areas or I might as well move back to the northeast.

I have no reason to leave, and North Carolina does not have much have an appeal to me. Too liberal of a state, attracting too many East Coast transplants.
The East Coast transplants are leaving Florida, and the areas settled by them tend to be the areas with the road rage, rudeness and unfriendliness.... It is much more pleasant to drive in the Midwestern transplant areas like Fort Myers or the true Southern areas like Tallahassee than it is to drive in East Coast transplant areas like Broward and Palm Beach.
You mean the "Containment Area for Relocated Yankees"!!! Google this phrase and watch what comes up.
