wow..I'm an original NYer and I have lived in VA, Charlotte and now I'm in Atlanta. Va too boring and Atlanta too spread out so Im coming back to Charlotte. Its definitely a great place for raising kids, not much help if your a single parent, now you wanna talk about rasicm the mexicans not latinos but mexicans get more help from the state than any other race. depending on where you live will depend on the schools...on the east side the only good hs is butler, independence is good too for sports, northside/university area take your pick same thing in ballantyne...south side and west side no thank you i could have stayed with ny crime lol...charlotte really isnt a bad place to live...the traffic is a hell of alot better than atlanta...it takes 30 mins down 85 to get to gastonia just to get to clayton county from n.atlanta its a 45 min drive and pray there is no construction. I like atlanta but when you dont have a really good transit system that run comparable to nyc transit and ridiculous traffic with 5/6 lanes full of cars, charlotte, nc is heaven-sent.
