Why Retire in Charlotte?
If you’re thinking about retiring in Charlotte, you’re in great company—thousands of people are excited to enjoy the beautiful weather, great golf, and amazing amenities Charlotte has to offer retirees.
Why Retire in Charlotte?
North Carolina’s 55-and-up communities are second-to-none. You’ll find a huge variety of beautiful homes in neighborhoods designed specifically for active adults.
Charlotte itself is a beautiful city, and it’s growing quickly. Over the past 20 years, its population has nearly doubled. Several banks and financial institutions are headquartered here, as is the University of North Carolina, which combine to make the city a thriving epicenter that’s unlike anything else in the South.
As a diverse, busy city, Charlotte is among the best in the country when it comes to cutting-edge medical facilities (including the renowned Carolinas HealthCare System and Novant Health), easy access to public transit, and a remarkable cultural scene. The city is also a hub for American Airlines, which means flying in and out (hello, grandkids!) is typically affordable and convenient.
Charlotte made Kiplinger’s “10 Great Places to Retire” list because of its affordable cost of living, mild climate (we get more than 200 days of sunshine every year), and exceptional amenities.
