Charlotte is a great place to live. People are moving to our
beloved, Southern city every day. T-N-T
Moving Systems has been in Charlotte since 1995, but owners, Todd and Tom,
are implants like many Charlotteans. “We are both from the Northeast, so we
know what it’s like to adjust to a new city,” says Todd Koepke, co-owner of
T-N-T.
According to the Moving to Charlotte website, over 70 people
move to Charlotte each day. “Charlotte is one of the biggest and fastest growing
cities in the New South,” says Tom Tulowiecki. Charlotte is a unique, thriving
city with some quirks.
Reasons Why
People Move to Charlotte:
Location. Location.
Location. Many people move to Charlotte because of its proximity to the
beach and the mountains. “It’s really the best of both worlds!” says Koepke.
The beach is about three and a half hours away and the mountains are less than
two.
Neighborhoods. Whether
you enjoy the creative arts scene or are looking to retire, Charlotte offers
many neighborhoods that appeal to young and old alike. NoDa, Southend,
Dilworth, and Uptown offer art galleries and funky live music venues like The
Neighborhood Theater, Double Door, and The Music Factory. Retirees might enjoy
living a bit further from the city on one of the nearby lakes. Take a look at
our neighborhood guides for restaurant, shopping, and other recommendations. In
Charlotte, neighborhoods feel like communities. The tree-lined streets,
maintained greenways, and active community groups keep Charlotte thriving.
Business.
Charlotte is known as a banking town, but there are lots of other industries
here as well. The population is well-educated, productive, and resilient.
Continuing education programs at Central Piedmont Community College is a
fixture in the community which encourages lifelong learning.
Low Cost of Living.
Compared to the top 40 metro areas in
America, Charlotte has the 12th lowest cost of living. Our housing
costs are also low compared to other major cities. Our mild climate helps
reduce energy costs. But be careful when it snows! Charlotteans are not used to
snowy conditions, so don’t be surprised when everything shuts down at the first
sight of a snowflake.
“We have made Charlotte our home for 20 years,” says
Tulowiecki, “I can’t imagine living anywhere else!” If you and your family are
