Do you have kids in school? How large of a house? acreage? Guilford and forsyth counties have higher taxes than surrounding counties (bigger cities). Our taxes doubled when Greensboro annexed our neighborhood in 2003.
Kernersville is nice, Summerfield is nice, but on the wrong direction of traffic (coming from ATL, you'll laugh at that), and at the max of your 30 min commute to your inlaws. Summerfield has no town taxes, only guilford county taxes. The schools in that part of the county (Northwest and Northern Guilford) are two of the best in the state (not just saying that to butter up
@Rice LOLOLOL). That area is growing, so road construction is constant, and housing prices have gone up. I'm on the NE side of Greensboro, my daughter had a few classes at Jamestown, and there is no fast way there from here. Had we known the area better when we moved here in 2000, we would have probably built in Summerfield. I've got a 10 min commute to work during rush hour, including 5 stop lights
If you want more rural, archdale, climax (my wife couldnt move out there, because she couldnt have address labels with that without embarassment), and other areas around western randolph county are nice.
If you get bored Saturday morning, we will be over on the other side of the lake across from the campground sailing RC Sailboats. it would be across the lake (have to drive all the way around unless you can convince Vicki to drive you over in the Marina Patrol boat). Should be there from about 930 to 1 or so. We will be either at the sailboat ramp, or at the next shelter over.
