    That's funny, I heard everyone in Minnesota talks like the people in
    the movie Fargo!!!

    I don't mean to be facetious, but it is not 1957 anymore. You be
    the judge by what you see when you come down. I encountered MUCH
    more racism living in Wisconsin/Minnesota than I ever have here. I
    would suggest you stop judging an area by "what you hear" and see
    for yourself. It was the
    people(black/white/hispanic/korean/romanian/russian/african/etc who
    lived here that convinced us to move. Their kindness and
    sensitivity just amazed our whole family.

    As to being a bi-racial couple, it is a big deal if you want it to
    be, otherwise the only people who will notice will be you.

    Everything else you have read about teaching here in Gwinnett County
    can be checked on the web. Jobs are posted on the district website.
    Pay is very good, housing is gorgeous and very inexpensive, and the
    people are fantastic.

    Let me know if I can answer any other questions. My email is
    georgiabadger@hotmail.com
