Rounding out the Top 10 Best Places to Live if you are Rich and Single is Chapel Hill North Carolina! The list, put together by CNN Money this summer, focuses most of it’s attention on California – naming Newport Beach, Irvine, Milpitas (must admit I’m not familiar with that one), Sunyvale, Mountain View and Santa Clara tops for that STATE… six of the ten best places to live if you are Rich and Single are in California? Seriously?
And then there’s a couple in MA and one in Georgia… and then Chapel Hill. With a population of over 53,000 – a little over 50% of the residents are single! (who saw that one coming?)
Who doesn’t love a little southern charm? This college town has a lively nightlife, rowdy Tar Heel games and home-style cooking for singles of all ages to enjoy. Mingle with eligible bachelors and bachelorettes on bar-lined Franklin Street, or take a date to Crook’s Corner for some nationally-acclaimed grits and banana pudding. Cheering on your favorite U.N.C. team is also a surefire way to take the edge off a first date. And if you’re into music, find someone who will rock your world at nearby Cat’s Cradle, a small venue where local bands perform alongside big acts like The Counting Crows, John Mayer and Iggy Pop. –B.E.

Chapel Hill is such a unique place – as is the case with all real estate, it’s all about location. Downtown Chapel Hill is a great melting pot of people. You can go on the outskirts and have peace and quiet only 10-15 min from downtown Chapel Hill.
