Waxhaw, Marvin & Weddington - Union County

Waxhaw, Weddington and Marvin are located in Union County neighboring South Charlotte. The wooded, rolling hills were once known more for majestic horse farms than homes, but many new subdivisions have supplanted many of these farms  (although there are still some spectacular ones spread throughout).  A small town charm, though, still exists, especially in Waxhaw - where the railroad tracks are located through the center of town and are bordered by a grassy strip and rows of stores on each side.

Many move to Union County for lower property taxes and still a reasonable commute to business districts around Charlotte. The northern edge of this area borders I-485, making the airport and uptown not too far away.

Union County has grown rapidly over the past 10 years and there are many new and newer home options available in an array of price ranges. Prices are more affordable than South Charlotte and larger lots more prevalent.

Union County Schools are excellent and three of the main high schools rated especially high: Marvin Ridge, Weddington and Cuthbertson.

Like much of the Charlotte area, it seems as if everyone who lives in Union County grew up somewhere else, so fitting in is quick and easy.
