A progressive city representing the best of the New South, Charlotte, North Carolina, and surrounding communities comprise one of the fastest-growing areas in the country. Located in Carolina's Piedmont region near the North Carolina-South Carolina border, Charlotte is only a few hours from either the mountains or the beach. New residents are attracted to the area for a strong, banking-based economy and for its mild yearlong temperatures.
With more than half a million residents, Charlotte offers all the cultural and entertainment attractions of a buzzing metropolis, but plentiful greenspace and beautiful tree-lined residential areas create a small-town feel. The city offers diverse housing options, from character-rich historic neighborhoods to modern condominium and new home developments.
Some of the most "in-demand" housing areas in the city are the upscale South Charlotte neighborhoods around Ballantyne and Pineville. A growing business area with lots of shopping and diverse restaurants, South Charlotte is convenient to Uptown Charlotte. Paramount's Carowinds themed amusement park and the Charlotte Knights minor league baseball team are also located here.
