nothing about queen charlotte

New Yorker here, is the city walkable enough? Don't mind driving but not a fan of car dependency

[@travelthetop]

Charlotte's walkability varies by area. Uptown and neighborhoods like Dilworth and South End are pedestrian-friendly. However, outside these central areas, Charlotte becomes more car-dependent, especially in suburban neighborhoods. For a detailed view, consider checking walkability scores for specific locations.

There are a lot of things you can walk to uptown and there are light rail/street car/trolly lines. But having transit everywhere isn't feasible. It's extremely expensive in initial and ongoing costs, making it an enormous financial drain on taxpayers (yes, the money has to come from somewhere) given the per dollar per taxpayer per rider ratio. This goes for nearly any large city. It makes more sense to have a lower cost of living that creates a Buying Power score (cost of living vs. income) that's below the national average. You can't want rapid transit everywhere, then complain about the cost of living. It's basic economics. You have to pick. Also, the buzz phrase car "dependence" is an anomaly. With a car, you have the freedom to go where you want, when you want, how far/close you want/1-100+ miles, without having to depend on anyone else. Transit and "walkability" can't even remotely provide that. Cars are the ultimate in independence.

No, not at all.

If that’s the case, stay away from the south.

As a long-time resident of Charlotte, I've witnessed the erosion of our city's rich history due to the rapid gentrification. The displacement of long-standing restaurants and businesses, which are the very fabric of our cultural identity, by newer establishments is a distressing trend. This loss of heritage and character is a concern for all of us who hold dear Charlotte's unique identity. I would consider it a smaller version of Atlanta. The city is very car-centric, and public transportation is not adequate. The items listed in the video are not at all what I would consider must-do destinations. Yes, some are nice things to do, but I wouldn't make an intentional trip to come here and do the activities listed.
