I love Charlotte. It’s a great city especially for families and kids. It’s full of transplants too, people are friendly too. But depending on age and where you are in life and the scenes your into, mileage will vary. I met my friends through church and another organization. I moved here in 2018. I think there is plenty to do for families and for the twenties crowd. As a woman in my early thirties I don’t feel like there’s a ton that’s catered to our group though. But since I have a child, and there’s plenty catered to him, I don’t feel like I’m missing out. I think if I didn’t have my son, at my age after a few years of living here I think I might feel like I’ve aged out just because there isn’t much of a grown and sexy scene.
That being said I have a great group of friends, so we make it fun. And I have a child so I like what the city has for him. I will day that I feel like a single woman in her thirties without kids, looking for a little New York City, or a lot to do might not be as into Charlotte if she’s into being out and about. If she isn’t and wants something slower paced but still nice, friendly and affordable she’ll enjoy it. Also want to add, a single woman in her thirties without kids or a man, might feel left out here. There are a lot of families here.
I really feel like overall it’s a family and couple centered city, but with enough to do, especially for younger singles that it works. It’s affordable too, and plenty of opportunities as far as jobs go.
