The Burbs
After a long day at the office, it’s nice to unwind in a quieter environment away from the fast pace of a city. The suburbs are also appealing financially – your money is sure to go farther, affording you more space without the big city price tag. What makes a suburb different than a neighborhood? Suburbs are communities and districts lying outside a bigger city. Suburbs are traditionally less densely populated than the cities they serve, and offer a slower pace. However, just like neighborhoods in big cities, suburban communities have their own unique offerings, so it’s important to choose one that’s right for your lifestyle! Maybe you’re looking for a small-town community vibe. Perhaps you still want some hustle and bustle, so you’re looking for a suburb with a great nightlife. No matter what amenities are on your suburban wish list, Charlotte has it!
