Here right now. The main reason I don't want to move here to be with family is it's all suburbs/exurbs with no public transport to speak of. If they ever build a streetcar/light rail system between Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill, this region could attract people away from bigger cities, no doubt.
There is a lot going on in Raleigh and Durham. RTP is just a corporate zone with a lot of businesses. If you want life outside of work, head 15 minutes in either direction to Raleigh or Durham. Both great places to be on the cheap!

- RTP (Research Triangle Park) in North Carolina. Cheap Housing & Cheap Lifestyle, but everything comes at a cost.
Any particular cost? I've read mixed reviews before (possibly here).

In my few months in RTP, I felt like there was no center of action in the place. Just lots of trees and roads.
