Charlotte: Economic Development

[@Lex5576]

Charlotte is 2nd only to New York as the most important banking center in the United States. It ranks 1st as the banking center that completes the most global transactions. Charlotte is also the most important center for marketing electric power, as Duke Energy is now the nation's top power producer. The city is a perfect example of what great things can happen when the government gets out of the way, and allows the spirit of entrepreneurship and free market to grow the economy.

I've been ranking metro areas, retirement areas, and small towns across the U.S. since 1985. What the man said in the video is true. Charlotte does have the best combination of attributes that makes for a very high quality of life and standard of living, especially compared to other metro areas around the nation. Awesome Purchasing Power (annual income vs. cost of living), strong economy, great 4-season climate, the geographical center of the Carolinas, unique recreational assets, lots of outdoor activities, very nice people, clean/green/flowering, good healthcare, convenient to tons of day trips from the mountains to the beaches. It's just an incredible place to live. Very well done video!

[@StephanieNelson]

I've lived here for YEARS and this video showed me so much I'm missing out on! Love it! I'm going to have to share it with some of my friends that want to visit!

[@AlanFitzpatrickDC74]

Awesome video! Makes me proud to live here (although I already was!). I'll share this with my friends and relatives.

[@DebiMartinAdam]

So glad I relocated here. Love this city!

[@IgniteCharlotte]

We love how you've captured all that Charlotte is from so many different perspectives. Incorporating diversity in the voice-over and the richness of the cinematography further emphasizes the mosaic of ideas this wonderful city nurtures. We are very proud to be part of this community.

[@soshalewis]

Awesome video! Way to showcase all that Charlotte has to offer.

[@carolinarealestate]

Great job by the Charlotte Chamber! It does capture what we love about our city. I plan to put this on our website... thanks!

[@MysticleNess]

Charlotte is a fantastic city. This video captures our vibrant culture perfectly. Great job!!

[@charlenekrug2734]

A really great video! Love how well it was put together and showcases Charlotte - not missing a thing!

[@TheEducatedNatural]

I am from R'ham which is south of Charlotte! I have spent many days in Charlotte. Great video!

[@buckeyes71077]

Moving to Charlotte in January. Can't wait!!!

[@kathyrowan2343]

Can't wait for Charlotte to be in the national spotlight for the DNC. Nice video!

[@MyCrowntown]

Hope to see more of the fantastic businesses in Plaza Midwood in your next video. Great to see NoDa shops and all the rest that makes Charlotte a fantastic city. Why would you live anywhere else?

[@meganb5288]

Very nicely done... go Charlotte!

[@cortajr]

Excellent promotion of Charlotte!! Thinking about moving back next year.

[@TigerMike22]

Truly outstanding video and it really places the finger on the pulse and heart of the city. Looking forward to many wonderful years here and continually proving that I made the right choice to leave Ft. Lauderdale for a real city with vision. Way to go, Charlotte!

[@nickakers7985]

I love Charlotte. I'm currently going to school here, and I just love the city. Yes, there are some bad areas, but it's a city, what do you expect? I also had no idea for the longest time that Charlotte was a bigger city than Atlanta. By 23 places at that! This city is growing faster than most cities in this country and I can't wait to see what is to come.

[@cityshots]

You left out the fun strip Wilkerson Blvd and the Paper Doll. A hit with out of towners... Also, the weirdness of the place make it perfect for hatching the likes of Jim Bakker of PTLS and many other notorious characters

[@traviscouch2876]

God bless Charlotte North Carolina!

[@theprince_jay]

I Love Charlotte Im 11 years old and i never wanna leave Charlotte better than any city

[@Edeskenney]

Best city in the country.

[@m.c.7801]

I am going to Charlotte in 2 weeks. Where are those landscapes? I want to spend lots of time outdoors hiking, etc... Thanks.

[@henrison]

Thanks for this video about our city ... please feel free to watch mines recorded right in here mostly of the time.

[@tracyking1489]

Greeting ,welcome.Peace and love to everyone.

[@ziggification]

I'm new to Charlotte..so correct me if I am wrong..Isn’t the % of homeless individuals in the Queen city nearly double that of NYC? Is it true that on a given night, there are over 6,800 people sleeping on streets, in shelters, and living in places that are uninhabitable? Aren’t two-thirds of those individuals children?

[@MrVidaeverdade]

I don't think so. www.acsh.org/news/2016/10/13/which-cities-have-most-homeless-people-10300 881 homeless per 100k population in NYC. Charlotte doesn't even rank.

[@everydaylivingrealty9238]

Can I use this video on my website or my facebook page?

[@h.a.k.newstar1529]

[@Jabari971]

[@Jabari971]

Texas is oil Atlanta Ga Charlotte Nc Create real industry no big oil without texas is a nobody real money not oil money.

[@akathetruthteller]

Jabari971 nah, charlotte is a lot nicer than atlanta. atlanta is surrounded by slums, charlotte on the other hand is really clean lol.

[@tracey5215]

Jabari971 I say Dallas bc Dallas is a growing city, and Charlotte is a growing city. Alot of people compare it to Atlanta bc of close proximity.

[@RealKirbysDreamland]
