Charlotte, North Carolina – The Queen City
Charlotte, North Carolina, is the largest city in the state. It has a population of about 874,579 as of 2020. A large number of residents are employed in the finance, insurance, health care, and social work fields. The city is renowned for its Southern hospitality, with a warm climate, and plenty of outdoor recreation.
Charlotte, nicknamed the “Queen City”, is located in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. Charlotte is part of the Piedmont region of North Carolina, which extends from the Blue Ridge Mountains to the west. From the Atlantic Ocean to the east, it is a broad band of rolling hills.
The city was originally named after a queen consort of King George III, Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. Lord Cornwallis tried to occupy the town in 1780, but local resistance won out.
The discovery of gold in 1852 was a major catalyst in the growth of Charlotte. Gold was shipped to the city for smelting, which made it a lucrative trading hub. During the 1860s, the city grew from a small village to a town of about 2,265 inhabitants.
In the late nineteenth century, a number of industrial enterprises began to sprout. One of these factories, the Charlotte Pipe and Foundry, is credited with being the oldest cast iron and soil pipe plant in America. Other factories produced gunpowder, canteens, and wool goods.
During the War Between States, Charlotte became a center for wartime industries. Over 1,300 refugees flooded the area in the closing months of the war.
