Meet 3 Boomerangs: MOLLY, CARRIE & CAROLINE Moving is much easier when you know someone in town.

That’s why Caroline, Molly and Carrie were ecstatic to move back to Greensboro. These three best friends met in kindergarten and were inseparable throughout their childhood and even when they went off to college.

They eventually went their separate ways, but when the opportunity presented itself to get the best friends back together, they started packing. Balancing growing families and careers, they’re happy to be back with friends they can turn to, in a city they all love.

Molly’s “What Am I Doing?” Moment: “I remember the Thanksgiving after I graduated college heading back to New York and thinking ‘why do I not live in Greensboro?!’. After that, I always talked about moving back here eventually but didn’t know if it would actually happen.”

We are glad she’s back! Now it’s your turn!

L-R: Molly, Carrie, Caroline

WHY WE LOVE “Greensboro has done a great job of growing and looking for ways to revitalize, but without losing that easy-way-of-life feeling and charm.”

-CAROLINE

“I’m excited for the Tanger Center to finally open its doors and have a little piece of Broadway in Greensboro. ” -MOLLY

“I’ve always joked that everything in Greensboro is no more than 10-15 minutes away. It just makes doing everything a little easier - whether it’s a quick trip to Target, running to the grocery store, or meeting up with friends.”

-CAROLINE

“I love Sage Mule for its great food and outdoor seating!”

-MOLLY

GREENSBORO “I love how accessible Greensboro is and although it’s much smaller than NYC, it still feels like there’s lots of opportunities for different experiences.”

-MOLLY

“In Greensboro, everyone can make it their own. It’s not about ‘keeping up with the Joneses’ – it’s about building meaningful relationships with all sorts of people doing great things in this community.”

-CARRIE

“I have 3 small kids, ages 7, 5 and 3. We love to visit the Greensboro Science Center (which I truly believe is one of Greensboro’s greatest assets), and of course take a ride on the brand new Carousel. ” -CARRIE
