Default What's in Winston Salem, NC?

So lets say I might be moving in the next year, and the location I might be moving to is in the Winston Salem area of North Carolina. Can anyone tell me about the area? I currently live and work in Hanahan, SC, which may as well be Charleston (where I went to school). I graduated with a computer science degree, but for the last 4 years have been doing primarily network related work. What are my odds of finding a job in the area? I have a feeling I'm about to take a massive pay cut

Any help would be appreciated...

Sounds like the Raleigh area would be better, but I wouldnt imagine you'll have a problem finding work in WS. If nothing else, I know Dell has a manufacturing facility there. But between WS and Greensboro, both decently sized cities, there should be a decent amount of jobs.

I've lived in W-S since January. There's not a whole lot here. It's a nice area, has a decent sized mall and lots of places to eat, movie theater, all the usual stuff. It's very easy to find your way around too. I suggest visiting once if you can so you can get a feel for the area

It probably won't be for another year, so I'll have plenty of chances to visit on the weekends. My girlfriend got a job at Wake Forest medical center, so if I'm going to make her an honest woman, well I'll be moving up there for her.
