This year my wife and I will be home for the holidays, Thanksgiving all the way through Christmas.

What are some good local charities that need physical help feeding people or delivering gifts and services?

We donate money and toys each year, but with the loss of my mil 4 years ago and my fil earlier this year, we're looking to do more this year.

We are preferably looking for organizations that are more humanist centered and just want to help out our neighbors and the community.

My wife is a Software Java Developer w/ experience working in Amazon-Seattle and Samsung w/ 4 to 5 years experience and 2 Masters degrees. We are looking to see if there are any opportunities to work as a fullstack/backend developer in and around concord. Any leads with information on potential companies in and around concord that has such opportunities/vacancies will be greatly appreciated. Open to even working in Charlotte and Ballantyne areas but prefer concord and charlotte areas. Thank you.

Windstream, spectrum are the prominent internet service providers in my neighborhood.

My issue with windstream:

1. So many different website domains on the internet (Sketchy). How do i choose the right one.
2. Different customer service number on each of their websites.
3. They call me back from their random personal numbers (864, 704 area codes)
4. I did go and place an order on windstream.com, I received an order number too. I get a call quickly from an 864 number and the guy says, the order didn't go through and he was calling to help complete the order (asian guy with a fake english name). Classic case of a scam, scenario. Reluctant to continue the conversation, I told hm i am busy and that I cant talk rn. He says, Then, when can you talk in a very aggressive manner.

I'm inclined to go pay a little more to spectrum to get safe and decent customer service compared to what i am experiencing w/ windstream. Can any in Concord-Highland Creek Neighborhood around christenburry share their experience with windstream. Am I over reacting? This is my first time moving away from AT&T internet where it was a one point contact for everything.

Hi all! My husband is currently looking for jobs in Concord/Charlotte or surrounding areas. He has a BA in communications and 10 years experience in various sales positions. He’s currently working for a staffing agency but would like to take his skills elsewhere.

Anyone know of specific companies hiring? Bonus points if they have a hybrid schedule to work from home at least 1 day a week. TIA

Leaving my child with my spouse this weekend and I'm looking for something to do solo. Don't love museums, or the library because I frequent it with my spawn.

I usually do some solo time watching a movie at the theater but the movies out now are not really my cup of tea.

I love the people watch and would love to just sit somewhere and people watch while reading on my kindle. Would love suggestions!!

Also does anyone know what these greenway trail things are? When I google, it doesn't show much or where it is on the maps. (obv still relatively new to the area)

Hello! There is a chance I may be moving to Concord in the near future and im curious what the cheaper end of housing/renting/roommates looks like in the area. Single m with no kids and no pets so not a ton of restrictions.

Any and all advice appreciated.

Has anyone else seen that new construction house on Branchview Drive? It is between Bradley and Brookwood. I don’t understand how a house was allowed to be built on that stretch of road seeing how the speed limit there is 45, most people exceed the limit, there are no other homes or businesses to slow the traffic down and it has limited sight on that stretch. The home also has a short driveway with no space to turn around to be able to pull out facing the road. How can that area be zoned for residential? I feel this is a horrible accident waiting to happen.

My old harris teeter would sell small pieces of cheese left over from when they would cut larger blocks in a basket. It was a great way to try new cheeses without committing to a large block/saved a lot of money. I got pretty used to being able to try new ones this way, but I have yet to find a harris teeter around here that does the same. Are there any stores around concord that do something like this?

Looking for a bakery selling fresh loaves.

Anybody living in concord, can you advice on Childers Park community by Meritage homes. Is it good for living ? We would like to rent for a year before moving in.

We are thinking of moving to the Concord area within the next few months, as I just got a new job close to there. Where is a good, kid friendly, family oriented area of Concord to live in? We are an interracial couple so we would love to see a neighbor that has a solid mix of people!

Or if you have suggestions of other places besides Concord, that would be great too! We are coming from the triangle area so not a crazy move for us! TIA!

Recently moved to Concord and seeking for a good gym. I currently have a planet fitness membership as the gym in Salisbury I was going to was getting the job done. Lately the planet fitness in concord has been frustrating me. Not enough push or pull machines. Not much free weights. All the benches get hogged including the smith machines. I'm seeking for a gym that would allow me to grow. Would be a plus if I can bring a guest.

Do you have any recommendations for a good family-friendly picnic spot with a nice trail near Concord or Charlotte that doesn’t require booking in advance?

I have to take my quarterly furlough the week of Nov 18 and then have to take multiple unpaid days the following week for Thanksgiving to save my Fortune 20 technology company money. I am attempting to find odd jobs to help make ends meet during that time instead of being in the woods hunting like I wish I could be doing.

I have a gas powered leaf blower, hedge trimmer, pole saw, weed eater. Happy to use your lawn mower if needed. I also have professional experience as a mover and can just flat out help you move heavy things.

I am a professional technologist and used to own my own website building business if you need help on that side of the house as well.

$25/hr cash or $50/yard if under 1 acre for the yard work. Reach out to get my number if you have a job that needs doing.

Turning a carport into a garage.

Was searching around for apartments to finally live on my own and found legacy concord. The rent is like 1400 for a 1BR and 1BTH. So if anyone has information on these or any other apartments let me know! Thanks 🙏🏾

Hey all... normally do most of the work/maintenance on my vehicles, but I suspect I've got a blown head gasket. Car is DOHC V6, so a little outside my comfort level.

Who in the Concord/Kannapolis area would you recommend that does high quality work at a reasonable price?

I’m noticing less and less people are decorating for Halloween this year….are Christians finally waking up, is it financial restraints, or something else???

I’m new to living in Concord, North Carolina, and I like to fish. I’d like to know if there any streams, creeks, lakes that I can fish from the bank?

Hi Yall, we are new to the area. Do you have a recommendation for Taco Tuesday? Margaritas must be present. We've tried Birriataco and MiPueblo and looking for better quality in taco. Where do yall go?

Hi! I have a bit of driving anxiety but want to take my kids to see the houses down on Union st decorated for Halloween. Any suggestions on where to park so we can walk around and see them? If I have a parking place /destination in mind it helps with the driving anxiety a lot! Thank you!!

First time voting here in Concord went to the National Guard outpost. I guess election rules don’t matter here, multiple people wearing MAGA hats and shirts, officials campaigning right outside the door, political signs within five feet of the door. What happen to the rule of law?

Do not take your dogs there. Absolutely disgusting and unprofessional. They will keep your dog for 7 hours and it comes home smelling like spray and cigarettes. Dried cemented feces and blood on floor. No accountability or management just chaos. The reviews speak for themselves

They have a sago palm in the walkway for the dogs to poop for christsake
