This can be a very hard decision. What did you major in? What do you want to do with your life?
My instincts say that you should try the big cities while you're fairly young and have nothing to lose. Of course, I'm assuming that you're fairly young and have nothing to lose.
If I were ten or so years younger I'd pick LA over NC. In fact, I tried NYC for a while ... until I just couldn't stand it anymore and moved here to Memphis. I wouldn't trade my experiences in NYC for anything. The people that you meet from all over the world change you forever. Not saying that there's no culture in other cities ... but the big cities just have a totally different feeling.
If I had to move NOW (and the move wasn't for a career in music) I'd pick NC; of course I'm a little older now and I desire a much slower pace. I don't like to drive, I don't like noise etc. etc. In fact, I walk to work every day and I live in a very quite part of Midtown.
Good luck and remember that you don't have to stick with any decision you make. You can always move again ... it took me four cities to get to Memphis and I don't think I'm done yet.
