Your are right that every place has it's ups and downs just as all cities have good areas and well...not so good. The key is finding the right area of Charlotte that fits your lifestyle needs. Uptown living is great for singles and professional couples. Great restaurants, entertainment, etc. There are numerous family oriented neighborhoods outside the city that are communities within themselves. The best thing you could do is find a competent agent to provide you with info on demographics, employment, geographic locations, etc. If I may be of assistance please contact me: mgreene25@carolina.rr.com

Until they start keeping these repeat offenders locked up, Charlotte crime figures are going to escalate. Anytime criminals tell arresting officers that thry come to Mecklenburg County, Charlotte in particular, because they know they will be back out on the street in no time, there is a problem. As a former police officer it sucks to hear them say that.
