Taylorsville, NC has been referred to as Trailersville for as long, 30+ years, as I have lived here. I guess some of the Lowes, Wilkes County money is trickling south. I live 9 miles west of town off Hwy 64/90, further up in the foothills and pass this place 3 or 4 times a week. WoW!!
Coming out of town 2 miles from driveway:

View from Church Rd, bout 1 mile as the crow flies:

Driveway off 64/90 bout 3/4 mile as the crow walks:

We often referred to it as "Deadwood".

Nothing has occurred there in the 42 years that I've been gone that would prompt me to reconsider that assessment.

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.


The foothills are going to rapidly become a hotspot for development IMO.

The people of Charlotte and Asheville(mostly transplants) moved into the suburban cities that surround them after they got fed up with the city conditions and taxation.

Now all the Matthews, Rock Hill's, Cornelius's, Davidson's, Hendersonville's and Black Mountain's are getting overcrowded, too expensive and overtaxed.

I saw an article the other day stating the Hickory area is growing rapidly due to the migration patterns.

I really like the way the architect integrated the existing landscaping with the natural surroundings. You hardly even notice it there, hidden among the red clay.
