 Founded in 1991, the Charlotte Regional Partnership is a nonprofit, private/public organization dedicated to the planned growth and prosperity of the Charlotte region. Roughly the size of the state of Massachusetts, our region includes 16 counties - 12 in North Carolina and 4 in South Carolina. Together we are Charlotte USA.
The organization brings together government and local businesses to market and promote Charlotte USA as a highly competitive, vibrant region with an increasingly attractive quality of life.
Embracing the core belief that there is strength in unity, the community and business leaders of Charlotte USA continue to work together to reinforce the powerful concept of "regionalism." Without a doubt, regionalism is the most effective strategy for global "city-regions" like ours to grow and prosper in the 21st century world economy. As a result, it has become the driving force behind everything we do.
Accessibility
The Charlotte region is midway along the Eastern Seaboard, but Charlotte / Douglas International Airport links Charlotte USA to the world. Offering air service to more than 29 million people a year, on 623 daily departures, with nonstop service to 127 destinations, Charlotte / Douglas International Airport is the 12th largest major airport in the nation and offers daily nonstop service to London, Frankfurt, Munich and other international locations.
Quality of Life
Charlotte USA combines a vibrant metropolitan center city and trend-setting urban amenities with access to charming small towns and rolling green farmland, creating diverse residential and lifestyle choices. Living costs are reasonable and competitive, and our quality of life is second to none. The Charlotte region is #1 in per capita giving to the arts and sciences, with rich cultural opportunities, a mild year-round climate, a wide range of housing options, quality education and award winning medical facilities. Charlotte USA also offers NFL football, NBA basketball, the PGA's Wachovia Championship and major NASCAR events.
Whether your site selection brings you to North Carolina or South Carolina in the near future, or if you are still considering Charlotte real estate for a corporate relocation, we hope you'll allow the Charlotte Regional Partnership to assist you or refer your company to local relocation services. Please send an email or call the Charlotte Regional Partnership at 800-554-4373 or 704-347-8942.
