Housing Market? Aren't homes with Lake views what - 8/26/2014
My mom is moving from Mooresville and has her house on the market now. She is joining me in Kansas City and even though the cost of living is more, she needs to live near family. She is sorely going to miss her home in Mooresville with lake views and beautiful pines. It seems like the housing market there is in a slump. Does anyone know why? Being from out of state, it is hard to understand what is happening there. Would love some Read More

Sleepy town, pricey and congested now - 8/31/2013
Mooresville used to be a sleepy mill town, but now with unbridled development, it has traffic woes and the housing prices have skyrocketed. To live on the lake, you used to be able to build a modest home for fishing, but now you must plunk down about $800,000 to enjoy the over developed land. There is plenty of shopping, but little thought went into having an attractive lay out and suburban sprawl is taking over much of the land.
If you have kids, there are some things to do locally, and many people drive on down to Charlotte for cultural events and sporting events.Be advised that there is a nuclear plant nearby, so it that makes you nervous...
The hospital has been recently sold to a chain but has a pretty good record for safety and there are plenty of doctors to go around.
The schools have scored higher than the other town in the county, and there are private schools in the area, also. There is also some nightlife in the area, but little cultural Read More

Moving to Mooresville from Grand Rapids MI in Octo - 8/5/2013
Husband is being transferred to Mooresville in a month. I know nothing about the area. Have a 1 year old and 2 dogs. Need to find a rental home or apartment in a good area ASAP. Our mortgage in our beautiful 2,500 sq ft home in Grand Rapids now is only $560/month. Looking to keep it in the price range as the pay increase to move is minimal, but want to be in a good area/school district. Willing to rent until the right home comes along, but don't even know where to start looking. Also... info on the area would be great. We have a boat, are the rumors that Lake Norman is really high traffic true? Also, what about roads? Are the outdated? Local business? Is it overun with franchises as stated in a previous comment? Weather? Bugs? Things to do? Nightlife? Any help is appreciated. Not really sure where else to go to help me with this. Thanks in Read More

Uptight Yankess please go back! - 5/13/2013
Well as a southerner, I am a open minded person who likes to hear any good positive conversation as long as it aint about Obama.....I think the problem most northerners have here in the south is our culture and the way folks think and talk including our accents.They come down here and suddenly think everything is going to be the same as where they have come from, well it aint! we have different views and like to talk about each others day and family's.....while yankee's just want to push you forward and forget about whats important like stopping and saying hi or wayving to folks..etc it's just a different culture altogether and thats why when a Yankee officer asked a young confederate private during the war of northern aggression why he was fighting the war? " he said, cause all y'all are here on our Read More
