Ajjam I suggest you find your way too atlanta, if your bored..It seems like your not satisfied with what charlotte has to offer. Your not going to get the same experience in charlotte as you will atlanta.. So don't try to compare them.. Buckhead is on another level than south park period..

I like Indys downtown better than charlottes

the shopping experience is better in charlotte than Indy


Over all I choo se charlotte

Carmel is a suburb that will be very interesting to see in the next 20 years. It is already the upper income suburb of Indianapolis, but it is trying to put itself on another level. The are developing a new downtown and getting rid of virtually all stoplights and stop signs in favor of roundabouts.

Yeah that's cool,I'm not much for most of these "new urban" places because they feel too sterile and a little fake,but in 40/50 years they will be interesting to see after having been lived in a while. And this one in Carmel seems like there going about it right.

If you're talking metro area, I think so. If you're talking about Indiana as a whole, that would be Fort Wayne.

To stay on topic......indianapolis is way better than charlotte!!!
I don't think South Park has a Dicks. They have Macy and Neiman Marcus plus a lot of high end stores.
You're underestimating South Park.
