Anyone move from Raleigh area to Jupiter area?

Thanks for the info. And the bickering over illegals! They are everywhere you know, have become part of the fabric (and work force!) of this country. I think its time people get over it!

sky: Thank you for your post. I'm coming to visit again soon, and hope that I can settle on a decision. The Raleigh area is nice, I'm just wondering whether "nice" is good enough. Being near the ocean is a huge plus for us too!

They are not everywhere, they may work everywhere but live, no and I can show you places where you won't see it, but it's a fact of life in Jupiter. Some people can't deal with it. The El Sol Resource Center is a hot debated topic. Just Google it and you will find out....

Yes, I know. Same in Westchester NY where I grew up. They put up a structure to protect day workers from the rain when they are waiting for work in a wealthy area. But, doesn't everyone want cheap labor? Its a hard subject. Obviously the government, both parties, don't mind because nothing is ever done about it.

Anyway, this is another subject. I love Jupiter and these things don't bother me. I grew up outside NYC.

Just wanted to know whether the atmosphere is a bit more lively than Raleigh. Raleigh very "nice" but a bit of a bore at times.

I've lived in Raleigh and stayed for extended time in Jupiter. With the large exceptions of no beach & a winter (mostly mild though) I have to vote for Raleigh. Of course it depends on your situation; I feel that Raleigh is a GREAT family town for schools, recreation, all the college infuences, etc. If you're retiring or have no plans to have family then Jupiter may work well for you.

As I said when I lived there "Raleigh is a Civilized town". Most is any of FL can't say that.
