i would advise no one to move to charlotte nc if u dont have a lot of money or a job transfer or something. really i would advise that for any new state. me and my husband and four kids have had the hardest time trying to get stable in this new city. we came down here to find job opportunities and to get a fresh start. and it is not a place to get a fresh start. people are in to themselves, programs who say they help families to get on there feet do not, they just pass your story along to other companies and no one still does nothing it is only referrals . me and my family was on the verge to homelessness because we had exhausted all funds due to spending on hotel rooms , gas and just trying to live. some homeless programs told us they was full and it had to be an waiting list, wow u deny a homeless family of six i am not applying for a job. i need a roof over me and family heads. then a person from crisis asst. ministry program was suppose to come in to help people who are facing homelessness and he never came into to work and the staff did not even know if he was coming in who runs these programs and what are they doing with all the money they get funded. charlotte has the highest homeless rate in the nation and i can see why this place has robbed us, and so has ga. no different. forget about southern hospitality that is flush down the toilet along with help. the south is not the same at least from my experience. so all i can is if you u are not in a position to financially support yourself, especially with a family stay where you are because where you are leaving from might be steak compare to coming to a burger. thank you
