Reasons Millennials Want To Move to Charlotte in 2016
The Queen City continues to attract millennials to the area for a number of convincing reasons.
Low cost of living means more money for saving.
Charlotte is about 23 percent lower than the national average, with inexpensive housing playing a leading role in this figure. If you are moving to Charlotte, NC, you will also be thrilled to know that healthcare and utilities are priced considerably below average, as well.

The #1 Place to visit in the U.S., Charleston, is only 3 1/2 hours away.
