OK. I made some factual points. One last fact...
27) by the time the 5th response is made to this thread it will be a totally different subject.
Many, many, many cities fit into your "facts" about Charlotte.
And some of the points are just absurd.
If it is that bad, really, find a new city, one without any of those 27 "facts." And please come back and tell us where this place is.

Here's one: New Yorkers and other Northerners that come here to escape the taxes, cost of living, and bulls..t and then complain about everything and try to make Charlotte like the same area they escaped...........

Really? Where? Do you think Charlotte is a dirtier city than others of similar size?
I don't have experience with other cities, so can't say how Charlotte litter compares.
I notice the litter every day on my commute, along 77 and 485. (I travel the stretch of 485 between 77 and Ballantyne. Every once in a while, I travel other parts of the loop and don't notice the trash as much in those areas.) Also along Tyvola Road and South Tryon and Pineville-Matthews Road.
I DON'T see people "throwing trash out their windows," but I do see a lot of trash. I see trash pick-up, too, but the litter seems to get really bad between episodes of that.
