“Three Reasons for Californians to Relocate to Asheville, NC.

Due to beautiful mountain scenery and its rich artistic community, the city of Asheville has attracted many people over the years.  California ranks as one of the states most likely to pack up and find their “Carolina Home” and we should know, we built their houses.  Here are just a few good reasons why someone from the Golden State should move to western North Carolina.

Lower Taxes: According to USA Today, California paid the fourth highest in state income tax in 2010 at 11.2%.  As a resident of western North Carolina, you will pay around 7%.

Cultural Diversity: With people from all over the world moving here, the diverse cultural landscape has given this small mountain town a big city feel.  From its wide variety of restaurants and music to its various religious and spiritual faiths, you are sure to feel welcome in this great community.

Comfortable Climate: We know you don’t want to give up that great California weather for sticky southern summers but due to its elevation of 2400 to 3000 feet the summers here are cooler and milder than you might think.  You may see a little of the white stuff in the winter, though.
