This was from a recent (June) trip to the Cherokee Reservation in North Carolina. The sunset, shot with my iPad from our hotel room window.

I don't have the exact facts but wages are probably below the Northeast and the West Coast but in the middle rung for the rest of the country and high for the Southeast. It's chief appeal is beautiful countryside, a moderate approach to most things and friendly folks. The far west and northeast parts of the state are mostly farming and hence lower income. Apple has chosen an area with lower land prices and lower labor costs but not a long way form Charlotte and other high tech areas like the Research Triangle (Chapel Hill, Durham, Raleigh-UNC,Duke, NC State etc.). They also probably like the fact that is is centrally located for the south and mid atlantic. NC is lately consistently in the top five states for people relocating to the state and for people on vacation. And as for beauty Here is a sunrise out my back door.<IMG_0315.jpeg>On Aug 4, 2011, at 8:26 PM, Just Murray wrote:Is the real estate great? If the wages and jobs suck why are people there? Are they making a cost benefit analysis like well the wages suck but the communities rock and I value strong community better than making more money? It seems that more often than not people make compromises and no one geographic location has all benefits and no bullcr@p. But that's just my take. It's probably off base. People are probably too stupid but to do anything more than complain about unfair conditions rather than evaluate the conditions and adjust or plan to adjust accordingly.~KM\,,/(^_^)\,,/(: Rocked from my iPhone4 :)On 8/4/2011 5:49 PM, Robert Maxey wrote:

"Right to work" states have lower wages on average than states which are
not so-called "right to work" states.
