Yeah Kannapolis is super run down lol. I’m just lucky that I’m like right at the Concord/Kannapolis line and don’t have to deal with that bullshyt. My area is quiet and everybody keeps to themselves which I absolutely love. Concord and Kannapolis is like night and day.

Yeah they really are lol.

What you not enjoying about the A breh? Too much traffic? Too big? Atlanta's got literally everything you want as a black man...and the A&T Alumni Association in Atlanta is huge, have you reached out to them yet?
I enjoy ATL. My gal is from here, and I’ve started my family out here. The people are friendly, there’s always something to do, and it’s right in the middle of my people in NC and MS, but I just miss home, man. I’m by myself out here, and even though I’ve got my girl and her fam out here, I just miss being around my folk. Wifey graduated from A&T with me, so she’s very familiar with NC, but I can tell she’s not ready to leave her fam here in the A, yet. I’ll put the pressure on her again about moving, once our daughter ages. With or without her, though, I’m going home :francis::russ:.

I haven’t reached out to the Aggie Alumni group out here yet, but I’ve been meaning to. There’s actually a group of us Aggies here at my job, and we do somethings monthly, but it’ll def be nice to get with more of my Aggie brehs and brehettes out here.

I like Charlotte so far. I moved here back in Feb, from Philly. I don't know how anyone can hate on it.

How was that transition though? especially moving from Philly where it's something poppin almost every day to Charlotte where I'm sure down south things r more spread out.

shyt, I moved from NC to ATL and now I’m trying to get back home. I eventually will one day, and I’m taking my ass to Charlotte. I used to shyt on Charlotte heavy back in the day (their metro area high school football teams use to smash on us in Winston all the time :mjcry:), but

I love Charlotte, and try to escape their every chance I get. Was just out there this past weekend, and had a blast.
Independence stopped my little cousin from getting a state title :mjcry:

It was a smooth transition. TBH, I hated Philly. I lived in Philly for five years and hated every second of it. City was dirty, unfriendly, jobs didn't pay enough for the COL, etc. etc. So for me, because I disliked the city so much, I was happy the moment I landed in Charlotte lol. But before Philly, I lived in Nashville, and before that Chicago, and before that Cincy. So I'm used to moving and making transitions. I also like suburbs, so Charlotte was already my kind of city lol.
