Moving to Charlotte North Carolina
Events, Life, Sports, Weather, News
Charlotte is a big city with a surprisingly small town feel. It’s a mid-size southern city with a thriving financial industry, multiple professional sports teams and stadiums, an exciting (and evolving) food scene, and plenty of parks. And it’s a great place for families to settle down, with a slew of diverse suburban neighborhoods – from the eccentric NoDa district to the bustling South End neighborhood – catering to a range of lifestyles and age groups.
Those who move to Charlotte will find the city has no shortage of fun things to do. You can grab a drink while listening to a band at a local brewery, catch some laughs at a comedy show, or channel your inner artist at a paint and sip night. If you’re into a little friendly competition, take your friends out for a round of bowling or ping-pong.
The city’s temperate climate means it’s comfortable all year round, with mild winters and hot and humid summers. It has a subtropical climate, classified as Cfa in the Köppen climatic classification system.
Those who move to Charlotte will need to be prepared for the high cost of living here. Though the median salary is above the national average, it’s important to keep in mind that housing prices are also steeper than many other cities across the US. And state taxes will be a major factor, too: North Carolina has a sales tax of 4.75%, which Charlotte adds 3% to, plus a flat income tax rate.
