My wife and I are thinking of retiring in Asheville in a couple of years. (We are also considering other places.) We welcome any FReeper comments, opinions, experiences, recommendations, resources, links, etc. about living in Asheville....housing market, services, government competency, churches, medical facilities, cultural life, political environment (red/blue), etc. We are interested in what kind of neighborhoods there are (we have houses in historic districts of two different towns right now, so we have an obvious interest in that) and we prefer established neighborhoods as opposed to new developments.
Please feel free to FReepmail any personal comments, but comments in the forum are welcomed as well. Please ping anyone who you think would like to add their comments.
Thanks!
If you're gay, you'll love Asheville. If you're not, well they won't welcome you unless you pretend to be ACDC of course.
Waynesville is still OK. Southwest VA is a better bet, though.
I live over by Lake Jeanette.
Thanks, John. Does anybody have information about a new development called Crest Mountain? I have their sales pitch. I'm looking for opinions. Thanks again!
