Excellent post

As to the above quote, I agree. And it's what makes Charlotte so *very* different than any other place i've ever lived. In NY, there's a mix (balance) of people from all over the world - including those from Eastern Europe. I haven't come across notable numbers of residents from Russia, Poland, etc.

The other thing I find unusual: the shops in CLT that cater to Italian tastes, are, more often than not, owned by non Italians.

I can find Italian baked goods in the Triad; on the coast, but I can't find any (authentic) Italian baked goods here.

I am curious of the Indian population in Charlotte. It seems really high. I was sitting outside a restaurant last night on College Street and it appeared that 3/4 of the people walking down College were Indian. Any approximate numbers from reliable sources?

Does that mean that you were born in the U.S. and have Irish parents or born in Ireland and was the first of your generation to move here. If you were born in the U.S., you would be first generation American with Irish parents.
