If you are thinking of moving to Charlotte, you're in good company!  As many as 100 people move to the Charlotte metro area a day. 
What is it people love so much that makes them move here?  Some of the things many of our clients love are:
  • The weather  Charlotte actually has four distinct seasons.  Summer highs are in the 90s and the winter lows don't gomuch lower than  30. Tired of  snow, that's good because we don't get much here -- average snowfall is 2 inches (but it's usually less!).  
  • The Job Market  Gone are the days when Charlotte was exclusively a banking town.  In early 2020, 8 Fortune 500 companies and 14 Fortune 1000 companies were located in Charlotte with more than 200 Fortune 500 companies making a commitment to Charlotte by having a presence in the Charlotte region.  The fastest growing sectors in region's economy are: advanced manufacturing, automotive, financial services, healthcare and technology.
  • Cost of living  Charlotte consistently ranks as one of the most affordable big cities in the nation. It costs about 2 percent less than the national average to live in Charlotte, according to the most recent C2ER Cost of Living Index.  The idex analyzes housing, grocery costs, utilities, health care, transportation and miscellaneous goods and services.  
  • Sports Attractions  Football, baseball, basketball, hockey, NASCAR, lacrosse and MLS soccer are major pro and semi pro sport draws to our area.  Other area attractions and events include NC Whitewater Center, the PGA's Wells Fargo Golf Championship, Queens Cup Steeplechase, Thunder Road Marathon, and 24 Hours of Booty to name a few of our town favorites --- did I mention NASCAR?
  • Dynamic Arts and Culture Scene  Charlotte has really grown up from a small town to a bis city in its cultural scene.  Lead by the Arts and Science Center, Charlotte's arts scene offers anything from neighborhood based art projects to Broadway shows.  And if you are flying in for a visit, don't miss the world's largest digital artworks in the world -- "Interconnected" -  located in Charlotte International Airport.
