My husband's job will be in Charolette. Which town/county that is withing 20-30 min. drive from work do people recommend is best for a child with autism and a mom with a disability herself(ie., school, the waiver waitlist, quality of dr.s). We are looking at Gastonia and Concord, because the houses are affordable, but not sure. We need to sell this house first. I hear NOT to live anywhere in Mecklenburg county which is unfortunate as it would be a shorter drive for him. Any suggestions would be most appreciated!
