-I’m from Phoenix, NY. When I tell people I’m from Phoenix they immediately think i’m from Arizona, but it’s basically the opposite.

Kannapolis, NC
Population: 49,761 (60% White, 22% African American, 14% Hispanic, 4% Other)

Coming from such a small town, Trey and I (William) noticed a lot of things that were a lot different in Charlotte. The largest difference has been the amount of traffic, vehicle and foot, that comes through center city Charlotte.

# data[].attributes.body
Most of Kannapolis is made up of 2-way streets, with a single major 4 lane street that goes around the center of Downtown Kannapolis. There is often very little traffic that goes through Kannapolis, even during the "5 o'clock rush hour". This is a major difference from Charlotte where there are 4 lane streets everywhere and even some multi-lane one way streets, all of which are jam packed with vehicles at all times of the day
