A rapidly growing city in the Southern Piedmont of North Carolina. Nicknamed the "Queen City" after Queen Charlotte of Mecklenburg in 18th century Prussia, Charlotte has about two million residents living in and around the area, and is headquarters for major banks Wachovia and Bank of America. The NASCAR Hall of Fame is also set to be in Charlotte. Lowes Motor Speedway is a trademark of the city, characterizing the city's heritage for stock car racing. Charlotte is also home to many NASCAR drivers. Charlotte is also home to the NFL's Carolina Panthers, and the NBA's Charlotte Bobcats, both of which are fairly new organizations, resulting from the rapid growth of the city. Charlotte used to be home to the NBA's New Orleans Hornets, which left town after a dispute between ownership and the city over a new arena. After the dispute, Charlotte petitioned the NBA for a new franchise, and built a multi-million dollar Uptown arena for the new team. The Charlotte Hornets were originally named for the city's fierce rebellion during the American Revolution. General Cornwallis called Charlotte a "Hornet's Nest of Rebellion". Charlotte is quickly becoming another Atlanta, a system of poorly planned roads and randomly placed neighborhoods that result from a booming economy, also known as urban sprawl. Crime and corruption among the Charlotte police plauge the city, another ill side-effect of a quickly growing city, although the wealthy areas of the city remain exempt from these problems. Schools in Charlotte range from mediocre to just plain bad. The overall educational system in Charlotte is declining because the schools can't keep up with all the growth. The exception is UNC-Charlotte, which has no affilation with the Charlotte educational system, which is a decent place to go to college if you aren't in college for the social scene. Culture in Charlotte is almost non-existant, with a few exceptions. A stretch of road called North Davidson (abbrevated NoDa among locals) is a plot of Asheville in Charlotte. There are a few good places to see live music in Charlotte, including Verizon Wireless Ampitheather, Tremont Music Hall, The Milestone, with a plethora of smaller venues directed more towards local talent. Overall, Charlotte is a nice city on the outside, but has problems on the inside.
I went to Charlotte last weekend...there was a bank on every corner.

A girl who usually has a great smile.The girl that all the guys are secretly in love with&said to be very good in bed. The definition of ‘The best friend you could ever have.’ Charlottes are loyal, caring, funny and so incredibly smart. They always know how to make you laugh, cheer you up, and give you the best advice. She is the bitch of the century&the number one stalker of boys She has a perfect voice, perfect hair, perfect eyes, perfect everything.They usually have big tits,nice ass!
OMG! I'm so jealous of your talent/good looks. You're such a Charlotte!

With blonde hair and blue-green eyes, a tall girl with beauty to spare: a Charlotte is a charming, intelligent person. They have bright ideas and strong opinions, but they’re often to shy to share them. A Charlotte is funny and kind, with a laugh of gold. Charlottes are quite common, but the Charlottes I speak of are loving, smart and beautiful. No matter what they try to tell you, they very interesting and beautiful beyond belief. If you are so lucky to have a Charlotte in you life, hold on to them and give them all your love. 💕
Person 1: “Wow, she’s gorgeous. I’m going to go talk to her. Do you know her name?”
Person 2: “Yeah, her name is Charlotte.”

Charlotte is THE place to live. Nicknamed the Queen City, it is the largest city in the great state of NC. We have it all in Charlotte: the Panthers, Bobcats, South Park Mall, Phillips Place, a beautiful downtown, some of the best schools in the nation. Now some might then its been taken over by big conglomerates, but it hasn't. There are still the family owned, hole-in-the-wall restaurants all over. We have amazing shopping, from Nordstroms to Urban Outfitters to JCrew to little boutiques like Luna and Fresh. We have a large varity of restaurants, from The Cheesecake Factory to Outback to Sullivans to The Palm to Brixx Pizza to Grouchos Deli. The people are as friendly as can be. We know how to drive and aren't rude in traffic. We can always offer directions to a lost visitor. We don't have a ridiculous amount of snob. Basically...Charlotte is just THE place to live. move now.
and boy do we know how to party in charlotte...
