Where in the Southeast would you live....

Personally, can't stand the odors in old houses. Unless you seal the crawlspace and/or cellar, it's always musty in there. Blah.

If the house has been rehabbed the basement has been sealed

For a family. Layouts suck.  Utilities suck.  Also stinks.  Expensive to fix stuff too.

Well i disagree with all of that

Does anyone know if there are better tacos in Savannah or in Raleigh?

Thanks and I'll hang up and take your answer off the air.

Neither place is really high on the great tacos pyramid. I haven't been to RDU in several years but don't recall it being known for much of anything when it comes to regional cuisine. Savannah has the whole seafood thing going for it. I haven't looked but you could probably find some great fish/shrimp tacos around. I'll look and report back later.

when my wife and i vacationed on Tybee Island a number of years ago I was kinda fascinated by the neighborhoods along Highway 80 that runs from downtown Savannah to the beach.  A quick look on Zillow tells me the area is Whitemarsh Island and Wilmington Island - it seems like a neat area that is sandwiched between the 3 things that make Savannah cool - the ocean, the river and the historic downtown. 

Hurricanes & flooding would be an issue there and the drive to airport is not a simple one.

There are a lot of neat areas like that up and down the I-95 corridor within a 30 minute commute of Savannah. The weather effects are definitely a concern for the coastal communities east of I-95 and anybody who lives in one of the marshy areas will pay for it in insurance premiums. I have several friends who rent places near Midway that are in the marshy areas and they love it.

Living between Savannah and Tybee would add a few minutes to the airport commute but it's simple to get on I-16 WB and a short drive from there to the airport.

Is it schools? oversized garage?

Yes, schools.

I absolutely choose to live in suburbia on account of all its super convenient amenities and kid friendly stuff.

I've always been under the impression that Orlando would deliver big time in this area.

I think the schools are crap unless you go private. at least from what my orlando living coworkers tell me.

Having kids sounds like it kinda sucks

i think that is pretty much all of FL - maybe the South as a whole

Name it. Anything you could possibly want during an ordinary day is just a short drive from my house. And it's all new and nice.

Yeah, if that is the standard you live by then that's fine
