Moving to Charlotte?
4 Tips for Choosing the Right Neighborhood
The
Greater Charlotte area is an incredible place for young professionals, people
looking to start a family, older couples settling down, and everything
in-between. The best part about Charlotte is that there is a place for
everyone. Looking for something quiet and picturesque? Modern and suburban?
Rich in history? Charlotte has it all! Need help figuring out where to go? Here
are 4 things to help get you thinking.
1: Consider what type of social scene you are
looking for
Charlotte
has tons of well-established and up-and-coming neighborhoods that have great
restaurants, bars, outdoor cafes, and more. There are also quieter and more
peaceful neighborhoods that are more focused on family-oriented activities.
Knowing how much of a social scene you want to be surrounded by will be a big
step in choosing a neighborhood.
2: Think about what kind of transportation you’ll
need
If
you do not plan on using a car to get to work, run errands, do your grocery
shopping, and more, you’ll want to choose a neighborhood that doesn’t require a
lot of driving around. You can research this ahead of time, or tell your
realtor upfront that you’ll need to be situated in a neighborhood that has
quick access to public transportation.
3: Check out sites dedicated to Charlotte living
Sites
like www.Charlottesgotalot.com and http://charlotte.about.com are great resources for learning more
about what this city has to offer. They also have detailed information about different
neighborhoods and what you can expect out of each one. Visit my website JackieYoungHomes.com for more information and homes for sale in each neighborhood!
4: Narrow down your neighborhood choices by looking
at local activities
From
art festivals, to concerts, to lake living, to sports games – there are always
tons of activities going on all over the city, each with a twist unique to
their neighborhood. When you’re trying to narrow down the areas you’d like to
live, look into the forms of entertainment they have to help you figure out
where you’d like to settle down.
Choosing
a new home and a new location can be tough – but as long as you take it step by
