By no means do I have comprehensive knowledge of the state or all of the jobs available so I really can’t refute what you’re saying. My knowledge base comes from the Charlotte area, being the biggest city in NC by almost double the 2nd (750k compared to 415K in Raleigh and 215K in the 3rd largest) things are a bit different here than the rest of the state, and the rest of the south in general.

Charlotte def. isn’t representive of the rest of the state, likely should have added that detail into my origonal post.
