View detailed profile Advanced or search site with Search Forums Advanced. I have lived in Asheville for 3. Unfortunately, my job situation in healthcare is becoming a bit tumultuous and it might be time for me to move on. What I enjoy most about Asheville and hope to find in another town is the support of small, local businesses and the active, social community.

I love the expanse of restaurants with a focus on locally grown food and of course, the breweries. I love the seasons, particularly fall and winter and would prefer not to move anywhere that gets much hotter than it does here. I would consider moving to a larger city but I do not want any place much smaller than Asheville. I appreciate the beauty of the area and enjoy recreational activities, particularly hiking.

I also love how Asheville is a progressive town. I tend to lean liberal and I am not a religious person. Although I live close to downtown, I love the vibe of west AVL and how it offers somewhat an escape from the tourists. I like the fact that there is always something happening - art shows, live music, all the festivals during the summer. A little about myself - I am a 32 year old single female. I make a decent living and will probably not have much difficulty finding a job anywhere.

All of my family is on the east coast. I have a sibling here in Asheville and my parents are two hours away. I would prefer to stay within driving distance of the east coast but am considering moving further away. Thanks in advance for any tips and suggestions!

Since this board is really only for discussing topics relative to western NC, and there isn't another place like Asheville in western NC, you might do better to post on boards in other states you are considering.

Oregon comes to mind, as I think there are towns there tat meet your criteria. Originally Posted by Smessen. Location: Earth, a nice neighborhood in the Milky Way. Originally Posted by carolinadawg2.

There's a great local food community and great restaurant scene, it's a progressive place though not really a hippy mecca like Boulder, Berkeley, or Burlington, VT.

It has four seasons complete with beautiful New England fall foliage, great coastline nearby, and there is a small but growing craft brew scene. We're a net exporter of our crankiest conservatives. We ship them down your way. However, as a formerly avid hiker, I can say it doesn't really have great hiking; for that you have to travel some distance if you want mountain views.

I have considered Western Mass but I have yet to find anybody who has actually lived there. Are you very familiar with the area? My initial fear is that it might be too much of a 'college town' and I am a little too old for that. However, that is just what I have read from my brief internet search so I could very well have the wrong impression. I would love to get up there to visit. Portland, Oregon is also on my list. I think it's just a little too far for me though. My vote would be Madison, WI.

LOVE this place and lived there 13 years. I would love to live in Asheville because it seems to be a mountain version of Asheville. Great community. Could rave forever about it.
