Area Info
North Carolina has quietly become one of the most popular states in the country for retirement. Not everyone wants to move to Florida: North Carolina is blessed with a varied topography, from seacoast to mountains; an equable, four-season climate; and a choice of social settings ranging from quiet small towns to booming and vibrant cities. Add in the wide array of cultural and recreational choices, and North Carolina is virtually a microcosm of America.
North Carolina was the first of the United States to be settled by English colonists, even though the settlement disappeared into legend as the "Lost Colony of Roanoke." Since that time, it has become one of the most densely-settled states, ranked 10th in population. In the past decade alone, North Carolina's population has increased by more than 16 percent.
