It was your average small southern town up until releively recent times…what do you want it to be? And I’m not sure where you’re driving to see mostly trailer parks…realtor.com has the median home price at $299k. I see plenty of homes in Mt Holly listed at $500k+ so obviously not all people view Mt Holly the same as you.
Maybe the OP is looking for meth and typical city-data then complaining that the meth areas aren't good enough and like where they came from....
No thanks... Tell your cousin to keep selling to their relatives and leave us "yankees" out of it...
I like that because the internet says the market is a quarter-million there isn't a trailer park every eighth of a mile on 273 and 27.... If you pay a quarter-million next to a mobile home park your money didn't come from intelligence...

Explains why the old affluent southern families can't sale fast enough... No offense, but if it was so wholesome why did you knowingly sale to developers? I first came here in the early 90s and owners were already planning their escape...

You’re sounding irrational. Do you have any data on the number of trailer parks vs other small historically rural towns in the Charlotte metro (and Gaston County)? Where are these old affluent families moving to once they sale whatever it is you say they are selling? From the looks of the market, it appears people from other places can’t get into Mt Holly (and Belmont) fast enough.
Just for kicks I looked through Zillow and of the 131 listings in Mt Holly, I saw ***1*** “trailer” listed for sale. A double wide on 8 acres. TONS of new construction though…so whatever ratio of trailers to stick built homes you have in your head…it looks like the trailers will soon be drowned out by the massive amounts of new construction.
And get this…in 2009 Mt Holly had a population of 10,000 people…today it has a population of nearly 17,000 which makes it 4th out of Charlotte’s 24 fastest growing suburbs.
You want me to dig through county records and build stats off of manufactured parcel zoning when it's visible day or night just driving down 273 and 27? Wait.... That probably sounds sensible to you.. Nevermind..
It's actually impossible to go to the area and record video without inadvertently proving me right... But go on trying to sale paying a quarter million to live around mobile home parks; because you're so honest and stuff...
I'm from Mount Holly. The city has definitely grown from what it once was. Lots more transplants. Lil cheaper than Mecklenburg County. Mount Holly is what you make of it. I personally moved away years ago. I outgrew the city. Some people like small towns. I preferred a larger more metropolitan area. To each his/her own.
