It seems like people who actually have money are moving south, and these kids who are happy to make 35-45K/year are putting down roots right on the outskirts of town.

From my understanding it was not as much Hey we are going some place better it was more to do with diversify across the country to attract East Coast talent and to insulate against natural disasters etc.. so time for me to see where Intel is putting down roots and then I can root around myself.

MOST of us are rooting for you and wish you the best. 

For other issues, take time to get to the root of the issue, then deal with it.

Could be trees overhanging the house and root intrusions.So, what do I win?

Don't give up, rooting for you !!

We had just enough money for the down payment, borrowed some of it, no cash reserves, ran into broken pipes, tree roots in the sewer line, tore out cement ourselves to get to the pipes, had police called, us called, fights, drugs, sleepless nights all in the first year.
