- The people in Charlotte are nice. Like SUPER nice. Like almost weirdly nice. I love them.
- Carwashes in Charlotte are a whole heck of a lot cheaper than in Ohio… 30% cheaper, to be exact. Though, they will look at you funny when you ask to stay in the car as you go through the carwash. Apparently, that’s not how they do it here in Charlotte.
- Everyone is really nicely dressed. Not in a I’m-better-than-thou sort of way, but in a I’m-putting-my-best-foot-forward-today (and every day for that matter) sort of way. I’m a fan.
- Chicken paws are not the same thing as chicken breasts!
- Speaking of chicken, why is the chicken breast at the butcher counter at Harris Teeter only $1.99 a pound??? That’s cheaper than the stuff they have on the shelves. Mystery.
- Either u-turns are legal here or we’ve broken the law 7 times in the past week. I’m hoping for the former.
- North Carolina is part of the South. People actually have accents here.
- A Charlotte native can spot an Ohio accent a mile away… I didn’t think there was such a thing as an Ohio accent. I was wrong.
- Public transportation is awesome.
- People are young here. Like a city chock full of Doogie Howsers.
- I’m pretty sure it’s possible to eat at a different delicious Charlotte restaurant for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day for a whole year without having any repeats. I may have to try that sometime. Charlotte knows a thang or two about food. (Stay tuned for more on that topic!)

Are you movinnnnnnng?!
Glad you had a nice experience here! I’ve been here five yrs and trying to move north but I can usually spot a midwest accent now. Lots of Ohio peeps here!
Very cool! I’m hoping to visit there soon … I’ve heard nothing but good things about it! Especially the food!
I’ve never been though I love to find quaint, inspiring towns that have a lot of fashion flair and good food =)
