Places to live near CLT
 

I live in DFW and we are looking to move to somewhere affordable with a milder climate and a chance to do more outdoor activities. CLT seems to be the only base that fits the bill. We don't have kids, so schools aren't really an issue, but are looking for something with a view and an acre or so of land. I am willing to drive as far as Asheville, but have been looking on Google maps at stops along I-40 into Charlotte. Black Mountain, Old Fort, Marion, Morganton, and Hickory have all come up. Asheville seems to be slightly out of our budget.

We will plan to go to the area a couple of times for a week or so to scout it out, but just looking for some general suggestions, as we know nothing about it. Thanks/

Give us a budget range and what activities you enjoy.

450-650k, mainly hiking/walking the dog on trails, stream fishing. No hunting, no boating.

Indian Land/Fort Mill SC or Waxhaw NC

Depends on when you were hired and what fleet...I'll give advice based on that.

i would not necessarily call CLT affordable anymore. Fort Mill, Mooresville, Davidson, and Belmont are nice areas, but very expensive now. Troutman and Statesville are about 45- 1 hr drive to the airport without traffic which is only a couple hours out the day. If you are looking for true hiking and outdoor activities you need to go west from texas. Not much public lands around here that are scenic like the mountain west and high desert. There are public lands for hunting close and plenty of lakes for fishing and recreational boating. The further you go outside of CLT area prices get a little cheaper as expected.

I got some saddddf news for you. Ain’t nothing “affordable” anymore. Any municipality with a major airport, serviced by a legacy isn’t going to be affordable.

Any place “affordable” is going to come with its own headaches.

Those damn Californians..

We need new pilot domiciles...

PIT. Embrace Tradition!!

Jules Winfield. I sent you a private message about a home that will soon be available in the area that is about 40 minutes from the airport. Contact me if interested in looking before it is listed and goes on the market.
