You moved here
for the job.
We're here for
everything else.

The Charlotte newsletter I wish I'd had when I moved here in 2021. Half of my hires now subscribe before they even sign the lease.

Genuinely the only piece of content about Charlotte that doesn't read like it was written by the tourism board.

I forwarded the Plaza-Midwood guide to my entire team. Three of them moved neighborhoods.

Saved me from a year of bad brunches.

Bookmarked. Subscribed. Forwarded. Tattooed. (Kidding about the tattoo.)

It reads like a friend who's lived here ten years and has very strong feelings about happy hour.

The Negroni audit is the funniest thing I've read about this city. Possibly any city.

Mandatory reading for anyone with a Wells Fargo offer letter.

Finally, a newsletter that doesn't end with 'discover the magic of the Queen City.'

I moved here from Boston with zero plan. Issue 12 became my plan.

Sharper than the Observer.

Their food coverage is the only reason my husband stopped suggesting Cheesecake Factory.

I subscribed for the bar rankings. I stayed for the housing takes.

It's the city editor I always wished Charlotte had. Confident, opinionated, occasionally wrong, never boring.

If you've just moved to Charlotte and aren't reading this, you're losing.

Real recommendations from real adults. Refreshing.

Their 'where to take your team Thursday' piece literally saved a recruiting weekend.

Better written than 90% of newsletters I get paid to read.

Charlotte's been waiting for this. Finally, someone said the things.

The Wednesday email is a small joy. The 7am send time is a war crime. Worth it.

I read it twice. Then I unsubscribed from four other Charlotte newsletters.

Their writing makes me feel like I'm in on something.

Required orientation reading. We send it to every new analyst before week one.

Funnier than it needs to be. Useful in a way most local media isn't.
