Author Rob Tanner

So what are the biggest companies in North Carolina? It is probably no surprise that many in the top 10 are banks. Charlotte is a banking town.

How Did They Arrive At The Top 10

Research done by OUSC has shown the highest revenue businesses in each state of America. Therefore, OUSC has determined the highest revenue businesses that have their headquarters based in North Carolina. Since this is the revenue from 2024, I assume it is how much they have made so far. Or it could be a projected amount for the whole year.

Here Are The Top 10

1) Bank of America Charlotte, North Carolina, revenue $171,912,000,000

2) Lowe’s Mooresville, North Carolina, revenue $97,059,000,000

4 North Carolina Small Towns Named Most Adorable In The South

Are you looking for a fun, laid-back summer getaway? Perhaps just for a long weekend? Then look no further than right here in North Carolina. There is no shortage of adorable small towns in North Carolina (which we already knew!).

But we love seeing places in our state get recognized for how incredible they are. And Southern Living recently gave us just that. They released a list of “The 15 Most Adorable Small Towns For A Summer Getaway”. And of the the 15 small towns included 4 of them were right here in the great state of North Carolina.

While there are fantastic towns all across the state, 3 of the 4 highlighted in this article are in the mountains. Maybe not the first place you’d think to visit this time of year. But less crowded than the beach and who couldn’t use a break from the insanely hot temperatures we are currently experiencing?

So what makes a small town classified as “adorable”? According to Southern Living, it’s a few things. Here’s what they had to say:

“To be a truly adorable small town, several boxes must be checked. A walkable and charming main street or downtown are requirements. An old-fashioned ice cream parlor or candy shop is a nice touch. And finally, excellent community and friendly locals are a must.”

So keep reading to see which 4 adorable small towns in North Carolina Southern Living thinks you should visit this summer! I’ve also included one from South Carolina and Georgia close enough for a quick getaway as well.
