in comparison, chapel hill seems boring :\

it's a school thing. it's also a price thing. look at the rest of the stuff on that list. now compare it to where you live.

actually, the price of living in chapel hill is really high. perhaps not as high as some of those, obviously, but still very high.

how high?

i'm not sure.
but high enough that i was able to notice and high enough to where if i was making what i did in winston-salem, i wouldn't be able to pay my bills. AT all.

i was looking at rents on craigslist and it looks not bad. i mean, not CHEAP, but not boston, either.

here, we pay $1225 a month for a house that has (potentially) 4 bedrooms, two bathrooms, two floors and a huge porch in a fairly good neighborhood. i can find a place for two people and a bunch of books in chapel hill for $800.

the problem with that is it's probably somewhere tiny.
plus there are college students abound, so you have to be careful where you get a house/apartment.

our house is in a great neighborhood and we paid dearly for it :x

there are tons of students here too. you just have to find the places that don't have them, or have few of them. like the area i live in right now. mostly it's families and/or grad students but down the street about a block are a bunch of student-y places. it really just depends.
