We will be immigrating soon, so looking at places to live. We are looking for a house close to Charlotte. In a low-crime area. Do you have any suggestions?

You check into an extended stay hotel, get vehicles, find jobs, find a rental, get to k ow the area then start house shopping. Budget, needs, ... It drives the search.

Hi,

I agree with TwoStep, this is a little vague. Look at your commute and budget, then check out Zillow or other similar sites. That’ll give you a sense of the neighborhoods, the prices, schools etc.

Then I would recommend finding a short term living accommodation on site (airBnB, hotel etc.) to get to know the area and figure out what is best for you and within your budget.

Good luck!
