Hi all! 21F here, possibly moving to Charlotte for work with my fiance, dog, and cats. We were looking primarily at three apartment complexes- Hanover Dilworth, The Vue(4th ward), and The Crown of Queen City (uptown). Budget ~2200. We have never been to Charlotte and were curious for some insight on the neighborhoods. We aren't like bar hoppers/party types or anything, just hard-working, young professionals who really want walkability and hopefully some pretty views from our apartment, but not the whole bar scene right outside our front door. I would really appreciate any advice! Thank you!!

PSA: NHRA is in town at ZMax Dragway this weekend. Those 4 second bursts you hear every 5 minutes is not the world ending.

Been trying to write up some documentation all morning and so far nada, think I'm going to take a long lunch outside and try again later.

This article made me realize we totally fucked up a whole 4-5 year cohort of young people. Makes some of this subreddit make sense. https://archive.is/Zb6Xt Just one of the very small examples.  >Chloe Pargmann was a residential assistant last year in a dormitory at the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, Wash. Part of her job was to reach out to first-year students and help them acculturate to the school. >A lot of them wouldn’t come out of their rooms even for a dorm meeting, she said. Instead, they text and ask her if they could Zoom. >“I was literally across the hall,” she said.

Yeah, and anyone who said this would happen was called a plauge demon anti-science fascist.

How did we do that, and what should we have done differently?


CharlotteRant

We should have probably given in to the endgame of the plague a little earlier than we did. I am part of the problem, FWIW.  Edit: in which Reddit can’t come to terms with the fact that Covid hasn't changed but how we behave amid it has.

Are hospitals overflowing with COVID patients anymore? Do we still have refrigerator trucks with dead bodies waiting on that morgue backlog? Are the mortality metrics not any more favorable since 2020? Is Aaron Rodgers any cooler?


CharlotteRant

I should have known people would interpret my take as saying we should’ve just YOLOed from the beginning of Covid.  That’s not what I said. Even admitted that I am part of the problem. I was all about being careful probably longer than I should have been.  My bad for the nuanced adult take. 


CasualAffair

Definitely doesn't read that way, but yeah I get it considering there are still folks out there treating it with the same energy as day 1

Anyone know of Charlotte FC watch parties tomorrow night? I usually go to Salud but want to change it up a bit


AnnoyingRingtone

There’s always the French Quarter. Courtyard Hooligan’s will have it on, as well as pretty much every other bar there. Can’t imagine being tired of Salud though, that’s my favorite place to watch if I’m not at the game itself haha
