Interested in any comments or observations you have about the Gables in Salisbury.

We're moving to Salisbury and are thinking of buying in the Gables. Looks well maintained and the fact that they have a clubhouse makes it easier to meet neighbors.

Thanking you in advance

Nice neighborhood, nice neighbors, I like that area of Salisbury, there is a good amount of middle-class neighborhoods around there and you are not far from some of the good restaurants and little shops downtown that I think give Salisbury a lot of charm. Also doesn’t hurt that it is convenient to 85. I have shown homes in that neighborhood on multiple occasions and my clients always thought they were nice inside and out.

Thank you for the information; we're hoping for a neighborhood where folks are friendly and there's a real sense of neighborliness.

Do all your research on Salisbury and Rowan County. There have been a few disturbing, random incidents of crime there. Moreover, I’ve found the people overall to not be particularly nice in general. Sort of a hedonistic streak of “to hell with you, I’ll get my way whether you like it or not” type personalities.

Nice looking community. Seems to be expanding out the back end. If it gets as large as it looks that clubhouse will be way to small.

Current Builder is Spencer Lane, has a good reputation. Latest built is all his. Front part of the Community had a different GC.

How many people have you met to be able to form such a negative opinion. Are you specifically talking about the folks in the Gables or Salisbury in general

I’ve met a good number as I used to live and work in the area. I’m only referring to Salisbury/Rowan County in general.

The person is correct about some crime issues. There is a drug problem like most rural counties. The Gables are in a good area.

The population is very friendly. Never had a problem.
