What are the best areas on the eastern half of state for Construction and/or Office workers?

[friendnc]

The Raleigh/Durham and Wilmington areas. What else are you looking for in the area you want to live?

Greenville is the cultural, medical and economic center of Eastern NC.
Tons of construction work with growth of about 1000 residents per year.
East Carolina University and Pitt Memorial Hospital employ many many office workers.
I lived there from 92 - 99.
But, as anywhere in Eastern NC, you had better love heat and humidity and don't forget about the hurricanes.
