I am about to move to North Carolina soon and it will be near charlotte. I dont want to be in the city but would like to know what are some close cities thats nice to raise my child.
I moved to Mint Hill (east of Charlotte) from California about a year ago and have to say that it's one of the best things I've ever done. There are some great places to live, mostly around the eastern and southern parts of Charlotte.
The Ballyntine area is where most of your influencial types are. It's one of the cleanest looking places around. Other great places are Pineville and Matthews. Mint Hill has a more rural flavor (at least to this California refugee) but it is located close to all the amenities that Charlotte has to offer.
