Asheville cost of living: Gap between prices and income could grow


View Comments
ASHEVILLE - The city and its metro region have the highest cost of living in the state but income well below the national average, a combination that is squeezing local residents and that now could grow worse, according to experts and activists.
A recent analysis of economic data by the Citizen Times showed how the four-county Asheville metropolitan area became the most expensive place in North Carolina. Meanwhile, per capita income is only 84% of the national average. 
An expanded analysis now shows how that price and income gap have persisted for 30 years and could soon grow to one of its worst levels, depending on wages, general inflation and specifically housing prices, according to local and national experts. ....

Asheville cost of living higher than Charlotte, Raleigh, with low wages


When Bruce Waller left Marietta, Georgia, in 2012 as a young man, he knew it would be hard to put together a job and a place to live  but he wasn t ready for Asheville s version of hard.

In Asheville, Waller also paid $500, but it was for an apartment shared with two friends. Water and utilities were not included.

With Asheville development, a desire to 'close the door behind you'?


When it comes to development, everybody has heard of the concept of NIMBYism Not In My Back Yard.
But the Asheville area also experiences another form of anti-development backlash, one fueled by folks who move here from other areas, sometimes into relatively new developments. And then they want development to stop.
That s a real thing, said former Buncombe County Development Director Jim Coman, who retired in 2010. We used to call it IGMSY  I Got Mine, Screw You. I ve already moved here, I m happy and don t you dare come.  
To be clear, Coman, a Buncombe County native whose roots go back to Revolutionary War-era ancestors, believes all residents of an area have a right to voice concerns about potential development and the rules their communities operate under.
