Very community oriented. I'm an hour or so away from a national park (Smokies) 2 national forests (Pisgah and Nantahala) and 5 minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway. (Which is also technically a National Park)
I can find bluegrass nearly any night of the week and we have drum circle every Friday in good weather. Random people come to play music together in a park and people from all walks of life listen and dance.
If you've never been here you need to visit at LEAST once. I'm completely in love  |
Just glancing through this month's issue of Forbes Magazine I see that Asheville is one of the top places they rated to retire in.
The Seattle Times too often runs articles about Asheville and I always picture it a delightful place to visit.
