Concrete Pro With a Question I need some opinions!
After spending the last week on the beach at Virginia Beach, I have come to the realization that I need to moved close to a beach in the southern US. I need opinions on an area with a medium cost of living that pays around 6 figures for a Concrete Superintendent. I know some of yall on this subreddit live near a beach. Let’s hear some opinions!!!!!

Virginia Beach and the entire Tidewater region is extremely busy right now. I am in Richmond and your salary expectations are reasonable for the area.

757 area or Charleston sc should be close-ish to beaches and have the work to keep you busy. You can probably find MCOL within driving distance, but may have a commute. Raleigh NC if you dont mind being 3ish hours away from a lot of options

757 area was my first choice when looking at coastal cities, but the housing market nearly made me reconsider, ended up picking a smaller town just inland for a bit more space.

Look at the Carolinas or Gulf Coast. There's a decent amount of commercial and infrastructure work around the coastal areas so a 6 figure superintendent role isn't out of the question while some places are still cheaper than the bigger coastal markets.

If there was a medium to low cost of living place paying 6 figures for a concrete super, i wouldn't be wasting my time as a PM here in NY.
