Honored to be an All-America City.
Location is one of our most prominent assets.
Our immediate access to the natural beauty of the mountains, the Piedmont, and several thousand miles of lake shoreline is complimented by our mild, but seasonal weather. Sprawling urban areas are only a short distance from our strategic location along Interstate 85, yet we continue to enjoy a pleasant small town atmosphere. Our greatest asset, however, is our people. We are friendly, caring hard-working, family oriented and community minded. Above all, we are excited about our position as one of the major growth areas in the Nation.
