Trader Joe’s is located in Midtown, not Plaza Midwood. In Plaza Midwood, the only significant grocery store is Harris Teeter, situated at the intersection of Central and The Plaza.

In the 1990s and early 2000s, NoDa was a prime destination for the arts, known for its vibrant galleries. However, over time, these galleries have been replaced by restaurants and bars, transforming NoDa into more of an entertainment hub.

Ok Raleigh with the better lifestyle is bull crap!

Home buyers need to cut the original selling price in half, like offer half of what people are asking. And walk away from the house if the home owner doesn’t agree. If everyone starts to do this house prices will drop because they won’t be able to sell their house. We should do this for 30 years so they really drop the prices. In the meantime tent out or live in your car and save the money you would have spent on rent. Value things differently than how the system wants you to.

Charlotte has done a good job of pushing her crime out to Gastonia, Shelby and Monroe.

Nvm the dog policy? This place is governed by the HOA. Can you show us other places that don’t have HOA involvement. And please go in depth with details.

None of the above. Not sure about Charlotte…. Raleigh is a liberal shit hole

Thank you!!! This is what I needed for a blind relocation ❤

It seems like all of Charlotte has the same problem - Too Expensive, Too Crowded, etc

Yea, anything to stop people from moving to Raleigh, i am good with ! YEA CHARLOTTE IS THE BEST ! PLEASE MOVE THERE INSTEAD OF RALEIGH

I pray there is never a fire. Only means of exit is a single point of entry at ground level. No other street level exits. With the units so close, if a neighbors unit caught fire that could threaten your safety. Looks nice but I would most definitely pass.

Spend over $2M to live in Charlotte. LOL Must be a joke.

Raleigh sucks charlotte is the real city who tf wants to move to country ass Raleigh with no nightlife clubs/bars trash only sports team is sorry ass hurricanes unless you like college sports duke chapel hill 😂😂other than the city sucks

Just made it to NC last Thursday and can't wait to start looking for my new pad :)

I have been living in Charlotte, NC since 2015. The cost of living has tripled in the last 10 years, but I love Charlotte. However, I will be moving in the next year because I am so bored, and many of my friends have had to move to other areas due to the high cost of living. As a result, I have no social life anymore.

The problem is rude New Yorkers (and New Jersey) or former New Yorkers who came here via Florida. North Carolina is not the same as it was in the 90s. Everything is so much more expensive now. When I was young I could buy a house for under 100K. Even five years ago, I could buy a nice house for under 200K. The New Yorkers insisted on increasing property taxes, and now the schools are poorly rated. Lake Norman schools used to be 9/10 or 10/10 in the 2000s are now they are rated 3/10. Many native North Carolinians have moved out to the more rural areas or the mountains.

The 85 south and 485 interchange going out of Charlotte towards Gastonia is congested because the roads take all inner and outer traffic of 485, merge it down to one lane that ends when it slots in to 85 south. If 85 south were narrowed down by a lane and the 485 traffic was given a free flowing lane it might be better, but there are no plans for this.

Great presentation summarizing various neighborhoods!

No Garage?

Raleigh is completely over rated. Street racing is definately a problem. Crime is definately on the rise. No idea why you would say that Raleigh is friendly... it all depends on the street or neighborhood you are in. I find Raleigh to be very fake nice and people close themselves in their homes.

Upside down crosses 😱

I am born and raised in Charlotte, only south of the city is worth moving to for safety and quality of life. South Park, Ballantine, Matthews, Pineville, Mint Hill, however the pricing is not for the light of wallets. Anything else you are risking your life. The crime rate was improving until their got rid of police chief Monroe. The sheriff, county commission, city council and mayors are a complete joke and very soft on crime and constantly release dangerous criminals back on the streets and advocate policies to continue such and ponder why we have a crime issue. The traffic here is terrible and the mass transit is laughable.

I work in Charlotte for 30 years. I've watched it do some major growing. It got to crowded for me so I moved to the Eastern part of the state not far from the beaches.

Charlotte is an armpit. 🤮

Very nice cribo.

Having lived in both Raleigh and Charlotte, I can clearly affirm that Raleigh is much better and friendly environment for expats. Need to stay in Charlotte for a while but when God permits, hope to moving back to Raleigh asap ❤️

If you are a major league baseball fan and if you like to attend games in person, then Charlotte would not be a good place to live, as Charlotte does not have an MLB team.

How much is this home? You never write the price.

Raleigh absolutely sucks!

I’m in Charlotte, and have just moved last fall. I have to say, the job opportunities are greater here than further out

I came from Los Angeles. I promise you, this “traffic” is so nice compared to LA.

Oakhurst seems to be developing nicely

houses are too close.

It Doesn’t Have A Rain Shower Head, Looks Spaceous Sho Need More TLC💋

How You Have 4 Bikes And 3 Bedrooms A Room Or 2 Short💋

It would better to compare similar size metro areas. You can compare any midsize city and it will look good against those 4.

Fabulous!!

Charlotte by far

Way too Narrow and overpriced!

Gorgeous!

Charlotte used to be nice then a lot of people from out of town moved in and the housing market got expensive to the point that people from NC can't afford to live here and crime is ridiculous I'm live in concord and you couldn't pay me to move back to Charlotte

Very nice home,i would like to live in N.C. Thanks for video

How much is a small 2 bedroom apartment, 1 car garage, around 900sqft.?

How about Harrisburg?

I moved from Charlotte to Raleigh last year. Best thing I’ve ever done for me and my family. The traffic is CLT and is absurd. People are rude. And much more dangerous. Raleigh and the Triangle has great job opportunities for tech and biotech.

I'm going to school @ Mooresville in November to become a NASCAR Technician. Im from New Hampshire . I'm going to make my parents proud RIP ❤

Im a Raleigh-Cary guy. Charlotte doesnt compare.

Moved to metro NYC area from CLT 19 years ago and still drive through the area 4 times/year. CLT traffic is WAY worse, primarily because people don’t want to leave their cars at home.
