Why does Pep really want to leave?

[Squirrel]

Because 90% of people form WV are illiterate?...

Peppers big time start in a small time city, everywhere he goes he is bugged about the Panthers and what the team will do this year.

Charlotte is penis envy they want to be like the big cities.

They are a big city. The 19th largest in the US. It's also one of the biggest banking cities in the US.

Idiot.

Except for the part where Charlotte is considered a fairly nice medium size city, that's probably true...

Charlotte has become a major U.S. financial center, and the nation's largest financial institution by assets, (Bank of America), calls the city home. The city was formerly the corporate home of Wachovia, until its purchase by Wells Fargo in 2008. Wachovia was originally from Winston-Salem, NC where it had been headquartered for a century. Wachovia moved to Charlotte in the 1990s when it was taken over by the Charlotte based First Union. Due in large part to the purchase of GoldenWest Financial in 2006, Wachovia was hit hard by the mortgage crisis and, when on the verge of collapse, was forced to sell to Wells Fargo. Citi Bank filed a lawsuit claiming they had first rights to purchase Wachovia and the outcome of that lawsuit has not yet been determined despite the legal close of the Wachovia-Wells Fargo merger. Wells Fargo continues to operate Wachovia out of Charlotte, as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Wells Fargo has decided to make Charlotte its east coast headquarters. Bank of America's headquarters, along with other regional banking and financial services companies, are located primarily in the uptown financial district. Thanks in large part to the expansion of the city's banking industry, the Charlotte skyline has mushroomed in the past two decades and boasts the Bank of America Corporate Center, the tallest skyscraper between Philadelphia and Atlanta. The 60-story postmodern gothic tower, designed by renowned architect Cesar Pelli, stands 871 feet tall and was completed in 1992.

The following Fortune 500 companies are headquartered in the Charlotte metropolitan area, in order of their rank: Bank of America, Lowe's in suburban Mooresville, Nucor (steel producer), Duke Energy, Sonic Automotive, Family Dollar, Goodrich Corporation, and SPX Corporation (industrial technology). Other major companies headquartered in the Metro Charlotte include Time Warner Cable (a business unit of Fortune 500 company Time Warner), Continental Tire North America (formerly Continental/General Tire), Muzak, Belk, Harris Teeter, Meineke Car Care Centers, Lance, Inc, Bojangles', Carlisle Companies, LendingTree, Compass Group USA, Food Lion, and the Carolina Beverage Corporation (makers of Cheerwine, Sun Drop, and others) in suburban Salisbury, North Carolina. Charlotte is home to several large shopping malls, with Carolina Place Mall and SouthPark Mall being the largest. Also, neighboring Gastonia is home to the Parkdale Mills world headquarters. Concord Mills Mall is also the largest shopping outlet in the state and one of the largest in the nation and single biggest draw in NC and its exterior is lined with many trendy colorful restaurants that parallel Myrtle Beach.

Charlotte is also a major center in the US motorsports industry, with NASCAR having multiple offices in and around Charlotte. Approximately 75% of the NASCAR industry's employees and drivers are based within two hours of downtown Charlotte. Charlotte is also the future home of the NASCAR Hall of Fame, expected to be completed in 2009. The already large presence of the racing technology industry along with the newly built NHRA premier dragstip, zMAX Dragway at Concord which is located just north of Charlotte in Concord, NC, is influencing some of the top professional drag racers to move their shops from more expensive areas like California to the Charlotte area as well.

The center city/uptown area of Charlotte has seen remarkable growth over the last decade. Numerous residential units continue to be built uptown, including over 20 skyscapers either under construction, recently completed, or in the planning stage. Many new restaurants, bars and clubs now operate in the Uptown area. Several projects are transforming the Midtown Charlotte/Elizabeth area.

All please tell me why Charlotte is so great then? Defiantly not the people or the city. It is a small city that great into a medium sized city. The people there act like they are better than you and cant stand it when people tell them how much it sucks. Lived there for 5 years.

It is both the people and the city. I've haven't met one person in Charlotte who acts like they are better than me. This may be different for you, just because all the people here aren't your cousin/sister/mom/aunt. I would love to stay in the Charlotte area for the remainder of my adult years. It's a great city, and I'm sure more people on this board besides me feel the same way about it, and take offense to you running your mouth about it when almost everything you say about it is complete crap.

Charlotte is a nice place, its not for everyone but it has some good things going on

Like any city it all depends on where you live and how old you are.

I have lived many different places and charlotte is one of the nicer places

But no one has spoken up have they? My point being Peppers is a big fish in a little pond if he was to go to Boston or NY nobody would pay much attention to him unlike living in Charlotte.

Because arguing with ignorant people is annoying, and most people don't like doing it. Speaking of which, I'm done debating this.
