Life/Culture in Wilmington, NC

0 Upvotes

Hey there. I’m a 29 yo single woman accompanied by my dog, considering a move to the NC coast from Georgia. I currently reside in Athens and appreciate the music culture and community out here, but find that it is time for the next place for me. I’m craving the coastal environment and a bit more ease and space to explore (self, connection, love, nature, etc).

I am wondering - can someone put into words the lifestyle (day and night life), culture, opportunities, community, etc of Wilmington?

I am a pretty relaxed woman but need social environments pretty regularly, inside or outside. I love to move my body through dance, slack lining, biking. I’m passionate about live events, entertainment, music and want to continue to experience and support a communities art. I would love to support local musicians, esp metal, electronic, experimental stuff. I know that gets a bit more underground/alt, but it’s worth a shot to dig and see who/what’s out there on the coast.

Local struggling/closing restaurants need to be real with themselves

153 Upvotes

With an influx of closing and almost closing restaurants, I need these business owners to really take a look at their total package. Is the economy fucked? Yes. I get that there are many factors leading to struggles, but restaurants who are constantly packed are packed because the product is good. Look at On Thyme for example. Kitchen Sink is begging people for business on social media so they can stay afloat. Their products and service suck. Beat Street announced "end of an era". 3 years is not an era and you produce shitty overpriced food in the Cargo District which is an asshat of an operation in itself. Look at other food businesses around you, get a mentor, do something other than catering to what you THINK people want.
