I would like to relocate to charlotte one of the major thing that is preventing me is that i did a quote on my care insurance and it will jump up 280 dollars a month....um yikes!!!

is there anyway i could get this down what seems to be the company with the most afordable rates?

Also what are the best yet affordable neighborhoods to move to? i dont want to live in the hood but i cant afford anything too pricey i want a 3 bedroom or a 2 bedroom apartment with a study since i work from home.

also are there any places that include utlities? i currently dont pay for water or heat just the electricity i use i dont mind paying for utilities if the rent is a little cheaper please help!

Well, to start, do you need schools? Regardless of that answer, would you be OK with living near Charlotte but not in it? Living outside of the city should lower your insurance.

That quote seems VERY high. We insure 3 cars for way less than that...we have clean driving records with no claims (knock on wood!).

I would try calling several companies to be sure you are getting a good quote.

There are numerous places that could be recommended. Since we don't know you, tell us more information to get you either what you want or close to it. For instance, do you need airport access? Are you looking for nightlife? Do you want quiet? Large town, small town, small city? Shopping - near by, short distance, don't care? You get the idea. . .

I would like quiet but not too quiet some nightlife would be great since i am 25 and would love to get out every now and again. Affordability is key but again i dont want to live in the "hood" not trying to sound snotty but i grew up there did all i could to escape not trying to go back. I love to shop so near by to a short distance would be great. My b/f would need something to do i suppose so movies and athletic center where he can go swimming, play basketball etc would be great a park for the baby would also be nice
