Most areas along the coast. I have seen it quite often in the Pamlico county area. Inland I would think the further south you are in the state it would be more prevalent. Meaning in Southern North Carolina by the border with South Carolina it may be found inland much further than say the border with Virginia. Don't know for a fact but I would think that it would be found in most all the southern counties regardless of proximity to the ocean. Areas like Bladen, Columbus, Sampson, Duplin counties and perhaps even farther west. You tend to find spanish most along slow moving rivers, in bays, lakes and swamps. I know in South Carolina it can be found even around Columbia which is about in the center of the state.
To add to ncguy444's comments....check out Orton Plantation outside of Wilmington (Brunswick County) if you're interested in some authentic Old South aesthetic (and yes, that includes spanish moss).
Near Wilmington there is a lot. But I've seen it as north and inland as Greenville, on the Tar River.
