Cabarrus County (Concord) if you want to stay in NC, York Co if you’re willing to move to SC. Both will have a relatively cheaper cost of living and Cabarrus will have arguably better public schools as your kid grows older.

We’re north of 85 near camp north end with our daughter in a charter and the 3bed townhomes near us are renting for $1900. A friend lives in more rural Cabarrus County down Rocky River Road and pays $2500 for a 4 bed. $1800 really seems to be the average rental for single family home.

Maybe consider looking at the CMS magnet schools for elementary so you have more flexibility in where you live and school choices.
