Good morning Nina,

Indian Trail sounds like a great place to call home. I am always checking out the list of places around the country considered a great place to call home.

It was also important that you included information on housing affordability.

Kathleen Daniels hi Kathleen, it's actually been interesting to what Indian Trail grow over the past 20 years. When our market softened, people chose to go to Waxhaw and closer in parts of Charlotte. Once homes there became less affordable in recent years, they are taking a hard look again at Indian Trail.
