Looking for area in NC that isn't in the mountains, but close... (Charlotte: find a job)

Like rolling hills, trees, but not Mountains. Thanks, K

You're talking about a pretty big area. In rough terms, you can draw a line through Winston-Salem and Charlotte--everything west of this line will be rolling hills, gradually increasing in height until you reach the mountains. And if you draw another line from Rutherfordton through Morganton to Sparta, this is roughly the beginning of the true mountains. So anywhere between these two imaginary lines would be rolling hills, and yes there are lots of trees.

Rutherfordton, Newton, Conover, Taylorsville, Lincolnton, Wilkesboro all come to mind. But these are not big cities and jobs may be tough to come by.

Like what ArbyUNC said. East of Rutherfordton is the piedmont, which is rolling hills and tons of trees. Try Kernersville, Lewisville, Colfax, or Clemmons. They have a small town feel but are close to 3 major cities. If you want a little bit larger, try statesville. Larger still, try Durham or Raliegh.

Where would you be working? You'd be well advised to find a job before moving (sorry to beat a dead horse).

Hickory or Stateville are two "larger towns" in that general area.

If ya don't want mountains, then don't come to Asheville! :P
