I know we have some people from North Carolina, but is there anybody here from the Charlotte area? If so, please private message me. I'd like to chat with someone from Charlotte and the general area. And if you are in the NoDa district that would be the royal flush.

I'm from the central eastern area of NC..... Wilson county to be more precise. I'm 3.5 hrs from Charlotte.
There's another PG'er from the Winston Salem area but I don't recall anyone here specifically being from the Queen city.

I think the user named "Tano Music" might be from Charlotte. Here is a link to a song posted by that person, and from the link you can get contact information TANO MUSIC I'm in Winston-Salem, which is about 1.5 hours away... not a convenient commute, but doable. If you need free lodging while you do something in Charlotte, I'm here for ya buddy! Shoot me a PM! I'd love to meet you in person!

I am now adding Raleigh-Durham to my request for anybody who knows neighborhoods. Looking at some real estate sites and I can tell in many cases that the neighborhoods are shaky (boarded up houses, etc...).

PARTY ON PAT's PATIO....
I'm only about 2 to 3 hrs depending on where in the WS/G area.....
Raleigh isn't a bad place to live..... in any city, you certainly want to choose your neighborhood carefully and with much thought.
Outside the city tends to be better. Small towns rock. My town has a blinking light..... and a post office.... the bank closed, as did the hardware store. So, we have a gas station, a mexican tienda, a corner grill and a country convenience store..... that's about it.
