Charlotte North Carolina Offers Plenty of Things to Do
Events, Life, Sports, Weather, News
As one of the nation’s fastest-growing cities, Charlotte has a lot to offer new residents. It boasts a strong job market (especially in the financial sector), a beautiful city center, and a surplus of fun activities for kids and adults. Niche gives the city an above average rating for its public schools, and its swanky downtown amenities make it a desirable place to live for young professionals.
The city’s booming banking industry has made it a hub for the financial world. It is home to the Bank of America and many other Fortune 500 companies, including Duke Energy and Nucor. The area is also known for its popular NASCAR races.
From film festivals and porch fests to performing arts showcases and food and wine weeks, the city offers plenty of chances to celebrate. It is also a beer lover’s paradise, with more than 18 breweries and many spots that serve brunch as well as drinks. Try the complex German-style brews at Olde Mecklenburg Brewery, or sample unique beers at Heist Brewery and Birdsong Brewery.
The Charlotte region’s humid subtropical climate means summers are hot and muggy, spring and fall are mild, and winters are chilly and damp. The city’s inland location also shields it from the brunt of hurricanes that make landfall along the coast. However, it does see some snowfall every year. Average rainfall in the city is 43.1 inches per year. The wet season lasts from March to May, and the dry season runs from November to February.
