I would love to rent something where there are places to eat in walking distance.
Also, how long does it take to get to CLT at 5 on a Friday? I will be flying home most weekends.

There are some privately owned apartments on my street. I can DM you a phone number for one. There is an opening. I don't know how many bedrooms or anything else. They seem kept up & the residents are not a problem. If you don't like these, you could always move. However, one thing that might work, since I know that it's impossible to check out the local apartments online, there are 3 motels at Exit 8 of I 85. You could get a room for a week or two while you scout out places, at a weekly rate. Of the 3, I would recommend 1st Victory Inn, because the entrance to each room is from an interior hallway.
There is a house on the street that was rented out, but the renters left. I'm not sure when it will go back on the market, but when it does it will go fast. Resale is terrible right now, so many are renting rather than selling. I'm mentioning this because you can walk downtown from this street. There are 3 restaurants within walking distance. These are not fast food joints. (Real restaurants, & 1 is a steakhouse) There is a good barbeque restaurant, but it's a bit further.
Going to the airport on Friday night should not be a problem. You would be going against traffic. It takes 30 minutes, give or take 5 minutes to get to the road for the airport, from my house. Your time may vary, depending on the location that you are leaving from, but not by much.
