Considering a move from NYC to the Carolina’s. Currently I’m at roughly 115k/year, and cannot keep up with the rising rent costs.. The hope of home ownership is out of reach here. Thinking it may be better down south.

Just as the question suggests. Considering making a move from NYC, to Charlotte. Main draws are the ability to potentially own a home, slower life style for my little one but I am concerned about the pay gap.

For context, in NYC I’m spending roughly 60% of my take home on expenses. The other 40% will never amount to enough to afford a house.

Bonus points if you’re a nurse and want to drop your salary. 😂
