Best neighborhoods for young families? My wife and I are expecting, and we're looking to move to the area. Priorities are good schools, safe streets, and a sense of community. Ballantyne seems great based on write-ups like these, but I know they're also written by realtors who want to sell you a home here. Would love some insight from real people. Suggestions?

Senior Consultant 1 & Director Product Management 1 are correct. The generic description you’ve given fits “The Wedge” extending south from 277 between South Blvd to the west & Hwy 74 to the east. Bring money.

What's your budget

Sherwood Forest is a great option with a good mix of house sizes, great stroller and or dog walking, close to grocery and other retail and easy access to Matthews, Ballantyne, Uptown via 3rd/4th street or Independence blvd. Top public school districts and close to private schools if desired.

North of 485 in that drawn corridor is preferable. Getting on/off 485 from/to south is a nightmare. Check Johnston exit at 5pm and volume of folks turning right to go south vs turning left to go north. That's just one example. Makes a huge difference. Remember 485 is your only expressway going through south Charlotte.

I lived in ballantyne for a few years and enjoyed it, but the commute to pretty much anywhere got to be to difficult. If you’re not commuting too far I’d recommend Ballantyne.

Hi everyone! First time posting here. I am in a good sales role at my current company but it’s my first solid AE role in the tech industry.

I’m worried that if I find a new position for a new company and the economy going to sh** that I am worried about job security. Anyone else feel this way?
