APPALACHIA STRONG TABLE OF CONTENTS
As an Appalachia native, I’m no stranger to all the various forms of beauty that these mountains provide. It’s no secret that the majestic sight of the hills and vallies themselves is unmatched, but the love, strength and unity of the people who live within them are forces to be reckoned with, and make the scenery of Appalachia even more beautiful. Not even a hurricane could wash away the resilience of the Appalachian people, and for that I’m eternally grateful.
It’s hard to put into words how much of a blessing it is to be able to witness the compassion and fortitude of the people of Western North Carolina. Although Hurricane Helene brought great devasation into the area, the deep love and care that has been poured out by local communities on those who have been affected is one of the many reminders that WNC is a wonderful place to live.
Franklin, NC is a mountain town that I highly recommend for anyone who is considering relocating. In this guide, you will find many real estate professionals who are ready to help you on your way to finding a new home. Just as I have, they’ve come to love our area and can show you all the reasons why living in Franklin is a great choice. I’m confident that you will find your dream home in the mountains right here in The Real Estate Buyer’s Guide!
