One of my favorite neighborhoods is the older section of Withrow Downs, located off Highway 29. Beautiful homes, large treed lots, etc. The catch is that its near the race track. We have 2 races per year here that will make traffic difficult for you. You'll definitely hear the cars on the track during those 2 races. Its a 5 minute drive to Concord Mills (if that qualifies as great shopping).
If you can deal with the occasional traffic and track noise, I'd put this high on your list. Not too sure about schools though.
Must be more than twice a year now with the dragway?
The commute from Kannapolis to your husband's job would be about 10 minutes. It is about 15 minutes to Huntersville and Davidson from Kannapolis as well and about 10 minutes to Concord Mills. I hope that helps.
