Tallahassee vs Charlotte — which is better?
Military spouse here. Poverty rate is 11.5%, which is around average. Average temperature is around 69°F, so the weather is moderate. Homes are going for about $276,000 on average. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Property taxes are high but you get good services.
Pros:
- Friendly people
- Easy commute
- Active local events
- Good airport connections
Cons:
- Limited nightlife
- Poor road conditions
- Far from major airports
- Not enough green space
