North Carolina is a Southern state on the Atlantic coast. The state is known for its gorgeous coastline ñ the Outer Banks, a series of islands just off the Eastern shore of North Carolina — is a world-famous resort area ñ and visitors to the state enjoy the warm, balmy weather. Hurricanes do strike North Carolina, and year-rounders in NC are accustomed to buckling down in preparation for serious storms. North Carolina is home to Duke University and the University of North Carolina, and North Carolina State University, which form the base of what’s called the Research Triangle. The cities of Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill are home to many high tech and biomedical research companies. North Carolina’s economic opportunities and physical beauty have made it endlessly appealing for people interested in relocating to the South.
