What Renters Like and Dislike About Center City Charlotte

It's a very quiet neighborhood. Not many people with a lot of kids live here. In the yards are well maintained in the yards are well maintained

It's got great neighbors lots of sidewalks and 2 local Parks walking 5 and eating and an ice cream shop

I like that there's a yoga studio and coffee shop. I like that it's still pretty green, even as things are being built out.

I like that I can walk to the store and it has active streets. Kids are always outside running and playing around with their friends. There's also public transportation right outside of the neighborhood so it's no hassle to get there.

very friendly neighbors. close to stores. quiet and small neighborhood and a very nice but small park

It is convenient to buy the things you like near the supermarket, convenient transportation is conducive to work and travel, beautiful environment can breathe fresh air, complete equipment can exercise and fitness, make yourself more comfortable

All About

Living in Charlotte, NC

Your Center City apartment for rent is located amid a bustling southern metropolis that combines sleek modernity with a congenial Southern atmosphere. The vivacious city of Charlotte is rife with recreational opportunities and it maintains a distinct scholastic exuberance with its notable institutes of higher learning. You'll have no problem navigating the grid-like streets of the downtown area as you head to one of the local eateries or a close-by park. You'll enjoy walking down the busy thoroughfares as you chat with your new neighbors and appreciate the splendid beauty of your new hometown.

On weekends, you can grab a bite to eat at the local Lola's restaurant. After, you can head to the nearby Greeneville Park or Five Points Park, where you can play a game of catch with the little ones or simply lounge on the verdant grass and soak up the vitamin D from the overhead, warm southern sun that never fails to make an appearance. To break a sweat and shed some extra weight for the coming beach season, you can always sign up for a fitness class at Ray's Splash Planet or simply go for a jog through winding, lazy side roads that comprise the outer-perimeter of the city.

If you are a sports enthusiast, you'll love spending Sundays or Monday nights at one of the local watering holes, watching the Panthers game as you sip a frosty libation and chat with the locals. If you want to see all the action in real-time, then you can always buy a ticket to the game - the Panther's stadium is right down the street from your new Center City apartment.

To navigate other points of interest that the Carolinas have to offer, you can easily hop on one of the highways that cut through your community - Interstate 77 and Interstate 277. These thoroughfares can usher you to Durham, Myrtle Beach or Virginia Beach, which all make excellent weekend trips for you and the whole family.
