I didn't say it was a bad place but in the LONG TERM you will make more money, and your pay, benefits and job will be protected by the unions...you don't have to pay taxes on your car up here, would you rather start at $35,000 or $29,000 and pay a lot of taxes.....living in most parts of NC is not cheaper than living here, unless you live in the sticks...go visit the NC board and you will see that multiple times. Your fiance is a male, he'll get hired into a public school sooner than you think. NC is not bad, it's clean, beautiful, the people are a heck of a lot nicer than they are up here, they have caring teachers etc....BUT what's the most important things when it comes to a career....money, benefits, job security...you'll find there is much more of that here in all those categories. Well, job security is public schools at least, charter maybe...it all depends.
