Making the move to Charlotte easier

When I moved to Charlotte, NC more than 25 years ago there was no Google Maps or Local Guide program and you had to rely on friends or a trial and error approach to navigating the city and learning about the best restaurants, places to visit and things to do. I really enjoy sharing my experiences on Google Maps as a way to make the transition easier for folks moving to the city.

I’ve witnessed tremendous growth in Charlotte and there are more restaurants, bars, parks and activities to enjoy than at anytime in the city’s history. So if I can share a little bit of my experiences to benefit other newcomers, I’m happy to help.

Good to see another North Carolinian on here, @Qeinnc !

I am in Winston-Salem but have friends and family in Charlotte that I get to visit each month. Love the city. What are some of your favorite activities/businesses in town that most people wouldn’t know about if they didn’t live there?
