But once you move to Charlotte- you might be thinking what next?

Here are some suggestions for newcomers to the big city of Charlotte, NC:

   Get to Know your Neighbors. Charlotte maybe the biggest city in North Carolina, but we are small town at heart. Charlotte is a friendly city with lots of newcomers, so be bold and say hello. For the extroverted, go ahead and knock on your neighbor’s door and introduce yourself. For shy newcomers, start out by waving a hello or go on a walk. Lots of folks in the South like to sit on their porch. Be sure to wave at everyone and before long you’ll be having conversations.

   Ask Questions. Charlotte is always growing which means something is always happening. Get the 411 from your neighbors on restaurants, gyms, lawn services, etc. Even folks at the local grocery store will have an opinion on the best BBQ in town. Ask your new co-workers about the best daycare or plumber. Charlotteans love their city and can give you the inside scoop. 

   Eat. Living in the South is a culinary delight and Charlotte has a lot to offer. There are uptown favorites like Mimosa Grill or Alexander Michaels. Unique Burger and BBQ joints like Pinky’s West Side Grill, Mac’s Speed Shop, or Midwood Smokehouse, are in just about every neighborhood. If you are looking for something a bit upscale check out the Fig Tree or the Capital Grille. 
 
   Join the Y or a Church. Joining an organization like the YMCA (there are several location in and around Charlotte), or finding a religious place for worship can really plug you into the new city. Charlotte is an active place with greenways and large venues for concerts or professional sports, but getting involved on a local level can really make a difference.

   Enjoy the Culture. Charlotte has a lot of culture for all tastes. Whether you are a sports buff or into the art scene, you can find your home in Charlotte. Check out websites like charlottesgotalot.com for weekly events. Go to a game- we’ve got the Panthers (football), the Hornets (basketball), the Knights (baseball), and the Checkers (hockey) from which to choose!  Go to at art crawl in Southend or NoDa. 


Charlotte is a wonderful place to live and raise a family. It’s got a popping nightlife for young professionals and is emerging as a great culinary destination. Let us help you move here, you won’t be disappointed!
