Look closely at Charlotte and you’ll find a lot.

Charlotte has been named on more than one “best place to live” list. One
reason is its central location in the Piedmont region of North Carolina; just
a few hours away from the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains and the Atlantic
Coast.
Charlotte is the 18th largest city in the U.S. in total population and ranks fifth
nationally in the number of Fortune 500 companies headquartered in the
area. The city has been listed as one of “America’s Top 25 Arts Destinations”
by AmericanStyle Magazine (2009), and has been on the National Arbor Day
Foundation’s “Tree City USA” list for 29 consecutive years.
Want to learn more about Charlotte? Visit the Charlotte Regional Visitors
Authority or the Charlotte Chamber of Commerce. And as always check
