Depends on what you enjoy. If you're into beer, the brewery scene here is pretty great - Asheville, Charlotte, and the Triangle all have great options. Live music scene depends on the city and the type of music you like. Lots of hikers and outdoorsy people and amenities for that sorta thing. But the cities here all feel pretty small and spread out when compared to northern or west coast big cities. But it's easy to hop in a car and drive to the beach or mountains or to touristy towns for a change of pace. Flights aren't very expensive, but you often have to transfer in Atlanta.
