- When you are deciding to make move somewhere new, it's always a good idea to learn a bit about what is HORRIBLE about that location as well. Knowing the good and the bad will give you the contrast you need to decide if the move to Charlotte North Carolina is right for you!
In this video we dive deep into the many downfalls of Charlotte North Carolina and why you might consider somewhere else to live. If you're interested in learning about a side by side comparison of the good and the bad, check out my other video linked below.
Cons of Charlotte:
The heat and humidity are awful for a solid month and a half in summer. If you shower and walk out the door, you'll be wet again... and it wont be water. On the bright side, your skin never dries out!
In addition, we have "Fake" seasons! That's right, it could be middle of February and you get a 78 degree day, or middle of summer and it doesn't get over 70.
In addition to the seasons, we have an entire season dedicated to .... POLLEN!
Does this mean you get allergies? Why yes it does! Seasonal allergies are common among most people in Charlotte, even for those who never have allergies at any other time.
We also have creatures....
There are of course bugs and we have venomous snakes!
A strange phenomena here in Charlotte North Carolina is the fact that it's hard to find a NATIVE Carlottean.
Of course with so many people moving here, there is the ever so awful situation known as .... TRAFFIC. The majority of traffic is during commuting hours, and Charlotte Traffic is nowhere near LA, Atlanta or New York... but it certainly grows yearly.
Of course no amount of infrastructure will prevent BAD DRIVERS!
Another interesting bit about Charlotte, the people are extremely nice! Everyone is nice! If you are coming from a bigger city, this may shock you to see others helping out, giving advice, or even holding your spot in line. BUT... that's just how we do it in the south!
In coming here you will also be overwhelmed with food options! There is a new restaurant or bar or coffee shop or other place to go or see EVERY OTHER DAY! Too many to keep up.
And lastly... Ice Storms! We don't get snow, we get ice. Baton down the hatches and get ready for no work when these blow in.

When she got to the end, I was like "wow"! Because nothing she said was bad. Pretty much, Columbia, SC is about the same, where I live.
These were the worst things I could come up with based on most common "complaints". Def not bad. Columbia is a great spot too! I've worked with clients there and there are such nice areas
I've lived in the charlotte metro area for 25 years and I've never had much of a problem with mosquitoes. I've sat outside and never had a problem with June bugs. We do not have roaches in all our homes either. We do have snakes in the area, but they are not around the houses all the time. Other areas of the US have issues with bugs too.
You are 100% Right, it certainly depends on location. Many homes closer to wooded areas see more Palmetto bugs. June bugs are also (Luckily) a very short season (basically big beetles). The worst mosquitos are closer to wooded areas and water. So anyone near the many lakes and streams etc in the area will see more. AND mosquitos always find me haha I must be sweet haha
What part do yu live ? That’s wher i wanna move
@Cris D I live near Huntersville on the north east side of charlotte. I love it here. When are you moving?
Live in Florida ,you will have, pollen ,bugs, heat longer. ,transplants here also, traffic here too, and drivers. I love people being nice and I love options. Nothing sounds abnormal, take a chill pill.
haha I love Florida, and I 100% agree with you. Everyone seems to be drawn into finding the worst about a location. Luckily the worst of what we have here is not that bad :)
Charlotte didn't used to be bad until too much exposure has ruined the beauty of it. We didn't move to "just the same" the quality of life has taken a nose dive. We moved to quieter area. Could not take the amount of rude people moving in.
Thanks for the video! My family and I want to relocate to the Charlotte area from Florida. I’d say it’s only up from where we are if we move because Florida takes the cake on weird creepy bugs and snakes, natural disasters, stifling humidity 9+ months of the year, terrible drivers, no seasons, not even fake seasons, and completely flat with endless miles of strip malls. Our biggest concern with moving there is crime.
haha O man I can remember seeing my first Banana Spider at my grandfathers in FL.... certainly freaked me out! One thing I can tell you, having lived in a lot of places across the country (including growing up in NY) and I will say Charlotte is one of the safest places I've ever lived. Now every area of Charlotte (and the suburbs around it) have their own crime ratings. BUT a majority of "crimes" are very minor. I live on the north side and we have never had any issues, and have no problem walking alone on greenways etc. The police also patrol greenways on motorcycle. In a nutshell, I would cater a guess Charlotte beats out even Florida cities on crime. :) I'd be happy to connect and walk you through some great spots that might work for you and your family best. SO many options!
@@livingincharlottenorthcarolina thank you for taking the time to respond! I grew up in CA and have lived in several different states as well and from everything I have researched and trips we’ve made to the area I think NC on the whole seems to be pretty well balanced in a lot of ways. Of course there’s no perfect place anywhere. You’re right that Florida certainly has some dangerous areas, and where we are in SW FL, it is the land of gated communities, a strange concept for most people who didn’t grow up in them. While Floridians seem to love them they offer a false sense of security in a lot of ways but anyway, we’re interested in Ballantyne, Huntersville and possibly the newer Steele Creek area. From my research on crime Ballantyne and Huntersville seem pretty safe. I know every big city has bad parts though so it’s certainly not a problem exclusive to NC or anything.
@Maaike 100% there is good and bad in every area. I've never been the gated community perso. But do see the appeal. Yes both Ballantyne and Huntersville have a lot to offer. It just depends on what feel and proce range you desire. Ballantyne will be over $650k for most homes and Huntersville you can find similar homes in the $500+ range. Ballantyne is also more built up while Huntersville offers options for a more country feel close to the city. And traffic/commutes are a bit different. If you guys are starting to think about making the move in the next few months I'd love to connect. I also have some amazing agent partners in SW FL I'd be happy to connect you with. My cell is 704.559.9169, feel free to call or text to stay in touch :)
I’ve lived in Charlotte for a while, trust me. Every reason she listed as utter nonsense.
@@ion.the.producer well they are all true,.... but as to whether that is a reason to not move here... its all pretty modest. Hard to find something so wrong to not want to move here
Great information
Thank you!
We always go to blowing rock North Carolina when we want to escape the heat. It’s a very easy day trip that only takes an hour and 45 minutes to get to. We went in August last year and it was 90° in Charlotte. In blowing rock it was in the low 70s and sunny. Felt like paradise. It’s so hot I don’t go outside some days, which is saying something because I will literally find any way to be outside.
The heat must have been unbearable 😂
Try living in south Florida. We get summer, rainy summer, and sometimes chilly summer. The humidity and mosquitoes are incomparable
haha this is true! and yes... the mosquitos are like birds lol. i do love fl though honestly. would love to spend winters there and surf
Thanks for this video ! It was so helpful. When the weather is bad and you are supposed to go to work and can not go is it a paid day off?
this is something that varies by employer. Since Covid, most jobs can be done at least in part remotely so usually still a work day just from home. In other cases i've seen where you take a sick day or just Unpaid leave
Great Video!...Again! :)
Thank you! Cheers!
It’s just a city with tall buildings with really nothing to do . The traffic is terrible
I guess it depends what you are into. If you love the outdoors, there is a ton. If you like the arts and events, there is a ton. If you like food, nightlife, etc, there is a lot going on. Takes a little while to find all the cool places to go and play, but once you do, it's a blast!
When it comes to weather and the season South Carolina, North Carolina it's bi-polar. Simple as that lol the Carolinas are pretty much the same in most area
Lol very true
The pollen in this city is truly a palling. We should all buy stock in Claritin, Zyrtec, Allegra, whatever allergy medicine you like because we’re basically making the money a lot. It’s so bad that they actually remove the tables at independence Square, which a lot of people just call Trade and Tryon because the pollen is so bad. It gets everywhere and I just hate it.
Agree!
Number 11 and number 12 is not really a bad thing. You all right this is not really bad but I hate snakes.
Yea not the worst thing in the world at all you're right. I love all snakes... but I cannot be in the same room as a Palmetto bug! haha
Life is more negative than positive
No matter where you live at it'll always be something that's why I never had kids because I know that I never wanted to be brought into this world in a negative situation so unless you were born with a whole lot of assets available and hardly any liabilities
I could have a child or 2 but to be honest with you
I wouldn't wish stacking the odds against someone coming into this planet to overcome adversity
It's not that kind of party
I can completely understand where you are coming from. At the end of the day we have to choose our focus: positive or negative. There is always negative but we don't have to focus on them :) sadly there has never been a perfect time in history to have kids, but each adversity makes us stronger. Bad times make strong people ❤️
@@livingincharlottenorthcarolina
I knew you were a cerebral individual
👍
@@1Maddd2mackxxx ;)
When are you going to give me a ride on your motorcycle. I’ll take you on an epic food/brewery tour. Maybe even hit up the barbecue king.
Better than Chicago
I will agree with this ;) come on down! No snow here
@@livingincharlottenorthcarolina Can't wait; thanks for the insightful and objective review!
Christmas Eve last year was the coldest game in the history of Bank of America Stadium. The windchill was 9°. I always say the weather is schizophrenic. One day it’s on its meds and acting normal and the next day it’s not. Fall fall, and real fall are both great times to be here. And fake and real spring time too. The city comes alive with festivals and people enjoying the hot neighborhoods, no pun intended.
That is Funny, totally agree!😂
Charlotte traffic is 24 worst traffic in the country move the Chester County South Carolina I don't see much traffic there. Most of people are for Charlotte a transplant so it is mostly your fault y'all can't drive. I'll Never See Much open road like this in your area.
Hahaha hey you haven't seen bad till u hit NY or LA. Growing up in NY even without traffic it takes 45 mi. To go 15 miles lol. I've sat for hrs going nowhere. Def prefer this to that lol
You put out another video about how great it is!! You must be running out of ideas
Hmm this video is from a year ago so no nothing new in a while, BUT there is never a lack of things to say about the area. I really do love it ;)
People kill me talking about they hate some place move hell
It is very true! I always like to share both sides of the coin so people know Charlotte may not fit them. But for most it is a great area!
Regarding bugs.
Have you encountered the House Centipede yet?
YES I'm not a fan they freak me out haha
Take me out on your motorcycle?
hop on! I sold my previous bike but after my baby comes I'm def getting a GSXR
Nice. I'm from Long Island via DC. Would definitely consider CLT if I could swing it professionally. Buddy has me applying to a couple roles at Wells Fargo currently.
@@stevefuzz8464 I actually grew up on LI in Oceanside/Baldwin. YES Charlotte is legit one of the best cities/towns I've ever lived in (and I traveled the US for a year). Keep me posted if you make the decision to head this way or your buddy gets the Wells job! 704-559-9169
@@livingincharlottenorthcarolina Will do. Wading River here.
Is this satire? *Laughs in Floridian*
haha basically. You know how ppl want to hear all about fire and brimstone.... this is the worst I could come up with for Charlotte lol
negative Nancy
lol did you watch the video? ;)
I rather put up with all the cons that living in FLORIDA!
haha I have a LOT of clients coming from Florida and they would agree with you
