Sure, the Charlotte’s Got A Lot campaign is true and all, but Asheville, NC has a lot as well! A small mountain town of a little under 100,000 people, Asheville is bustling, considering its small footprint at the foot of the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. 

The fair weather and beautiful scenery mean that this area is known for tourism year-round. In fact, according to Liveability.com, Asheville is listed as the #19th spot to live in the nation!
