Areas of Charlotte

South Charlotte

Area 5 is located between Providence Rd. and Park Rd. and spans from Uptown to beyond I-485. South Charlotte is the premiere place to live in Charlotte and is made up of several communities including the Ballantyne area, Dilworth, Myers Park, and South Park. The Southern Corridor has undergone unprecedented growth in recent years.

South Park

Boasting some of the best shopping in Charlotte, South Park has become a trendy and upscale place to live. South Park Mall features stores such as Nordstrom, Sephora, and Louis Vuitton. Restaurants in South Park are plentiful and offer a wide range of quality cusine. Ruth's Chris Steak House, The Cheesecake Factory, and P.F. Chang's are some of South Park's favorites.

Myers Park

The oldest and most expensive neighborhood in Charlotte. Myers Park will take your breath away with its sheer beauty. Drive down the oak-lined streets of this million-dollar-plus community to get a feel for the natural beauty of Charlotte.

Dilworth

East Blvd. runs through the heart of Dilworth and is the center of entertainment and activities in this neighborhood located just south of Uptown Charlotte. Along East Blvd. you'll find bars, restaurants, shops, and coffee houses, all within walking distance of the area's beautiful houses. Atherton Mills antique Mall lies just west of East Blvd. on South Blvd. and features many fine restaurants and stores. Spend the day wandering through the shops, and then eat at one of the restaurants. Carrabas, Pewter Rose Bistro, and Southend Brewery are popular choices.

Ballantyne

This upscale area in the southernmost part of Charlotte has grown by leaps and bounds in recent years. Like South Park, Ballantyne has a high concentration of impressive homes and commercial development.

Provincetowne: Another up-and-coming area that boasts about 130 sprawling ranch homes built in the 70s. This quiet subdivision offers affordable living in an area surrounded by expensive homes. Ideally situated, Provincetowne is close to major shopping, restaurants, and businesses.

One of my favorite neighborhoods is Lakeside Acres, which borders Providence Plantation. Take a turn into this neighborhood and you’ll feel like you’re a million miles away from it all. With an abundance of mature trees, it’s country living in the heart of the city—and it’s not uncommon to spot deer in your backyard.

White Oak: This neighborhood is immaculate! Beautifully manicured lawns and gardens are evident on every block. A stone’s throw from Piper Glenn, this subdivision consists of all brick homes—both ranch style and two-story.

Charlotte's downtown area, referred to as Uptown, is high-rise living at its finest. Check out Tryon St. and College St. to get a true sense of the many bars, restaurants, and nightclubs the city has to offer. Beautiful high-rise condos dot the city skyline, and the Historic Fourth Ward provides a glimpse of old Charlotte.

North Davidson, or Noda as it is commonly known, offers loft-style living interjected with quaint houses. North Davidson is also home to Charlotte's art houses and the Charlotte Gallery Crawl, an event which includes much eating, drinking, and gazing at art work.
