Chapel Hill - Born and Raised - we are snobs because we lived in ShangriLa.
However....it has turned into a bad bedroom community of Raleigh. It is also infiltrated with Yankees. 40 years ago, it was a great town.
Now it s***s....except for the Heels!
Carrborro - The place is a dump. The people are not snobs at all. They are gay, and maybe snobbish in the gay community, however not relevant to anyone else. People in Chapel Hill do not even go to Carrboro....ever.
