I’ve been here about 2 years now. It’s diverse and there’s a lot to do! People are generally nice enough, however, it’s competitive business-wise and people tend to have a superficial charm.
I love living in Mecklenburg County! My family and I live very close to the University, Northlake and Concord area and because of that, it is close to a lot of great shopping areas, grocery stores, restaurants, and churches. I haven't had much experience with the school situations but I know that there are some large public and private schools nearby.
I really like Mecklenburg County because people are kind and willing to help. However, some money needs to be invested in sidewalks. Because there is not enough space for people to walk, and many of them may be risking their life.
