Not true at all. "Everybody" is pulling your leg, or just sadly real misinformed.
Perhaps you should talk to posters like rickytickytavy- they know the REAL scoop on Charlotte

Someone told you WRONG.
Charlotte is a very clean, modern & a booming city.
Charlotte is the 2nd largest banking city in the US only behind NY. There is a TON of money and a TON of wealthy people here.
You must be thinking about Liberty City or Overtown...NOT Charlotte!
Charlotte is WONDERFUL!
Crime is everywhere in every city...but Charlotte is alot safer than Miami-Dade!

A very poor city? <spews coffee while choking> The median income where I live is substantially above that in most areas of this entire country.

Compared to Bagdad, it's much safer. My camel has never been "cameljacked" - Not once! The best part is I never have to check the backyard and the driveway for landmines! It's a real improvement!! No! Really!!!

All right, I thought I was a sap falling for the guy who posted sarcastically earlier about racial diversity in Charlotte. This is probably the same guy pulling your chain!!!
