I've been searching and searching for the right place to relocate this fall. I have visited a few places, and the search continues.
All I require is safety, affordability, and I really would love to be near the coast, in the south east.
My rental budget is about $700 a month for a one bedroom. I could possibly swing $800. I've thrown the idea of finding a really "neat" place out the window at this point, as I just can't afford it!
I need somewhere I'll feel safe, with a low crime rate.
Wants: health conscience community, small city/town feel and sense of community, bike/walkability.
I've heard good things about Wilmington NC., though I've never been. Know somebody who moved there and loved it so much they never want to come back. And it's affordable, on the ocean, and sort of touristy. Also has a branch of the NC state university system.

With most towns/cities the crime statistics warrant further scrutiny. There may simply be neighborhoods you need to avoid. In some cities the vast majority of crimes occur between people who know each other.
Will you have a car? Will you need to be walking at night?
Most likely somewhere in the south. I'm sure if you looked hard you could find a place like that on the west coast but its gonna be slim picking unless you wanna live in a tiny isolated beach community.
