Review of Charlotte, North Carolina

Star Rating - 6/23/2019
This isn't a city, it's a sprawling suburb with jammed roads and nowhere really to go or do.
Skip Charlotte altogether. Just a boring big box suburb with massive city crime, drugs, traffic, extreme poverty and pollution.

Frankly, ignore all of North Carolina for living and look elsewhere.

I can not disagree more with your view of Charlotte; I have lived in the Charlotte area for over 16 years now and I find it safe, fun and offering a great quality of living as well as a great place where to raise a family; I wonder in what kind of places you hang out! True, it still has a way to go when it comes to theather, opera and classical music but slowly the offerings are getting better...

It is easy to tell that this Thomas is not a big city guy. Charlotte has over 2 million people and lovely neighborhoods and of course suburbs like all other sunbelt cities. The fact is that the crime in Charlotte is lower than the huge majority of cities of comparable population. There are bad parts of the city but smart people simply avoid them like people that live in other big cities and want to be safe.
