The far eastern side of Charlotte along 27 towards Locust is the last area of generally undeveloped land on that side of Charlotte. I expect it'll fill in like University City did, over the next 15-20 years. So if you buy there, services (and traffic) will follow.
Whenever I've had some curiosity about Harrisburg, and made searches there, I feel like it doesn't present many options. I suppose the construction in that area is at a higher price point than I'm comfortable with, or it's still just a small city with few listings.
Concord is an old city - I don't mean that in a negative way, it grew more independently from Charlotte than the bedroom towns and suburbs. You will sense that it has more of it's own street layout and mill-era identity, if you drive around there. This appeals to some people more than others.
Mint Hill is still in Mecklenburg county - so that means CMS for schools, and remaining engaged with Mecklenburg politics, however you view that.
Any feedback on Belmont, Locust, Harrisburg, Concord, and Mint Hill???
All are good areas, with a mix of very suburban developments to rather rural feeling areas within their town/city limits. Concord for example has areas that are near downtown and older / established from the mill town era, extremely suburban large developments of new homes, and rather rural feeling areas.
Concord, Belmont, and Harrisburg are closest to shopping / stores. Mint Hill, you will be driving to Independence Boulevard for a lot of big box stores. Locust is the most small town / rural.

The downtown part of Concord is an old city. Concord has annexed a lot in the last 14 years especially in the areas around Concord Mills and west to the Meck county line.
