From Wikipedia:
Davidson is a suburban town located in northern Mecklenburg and Iredell counties, North Carolina, United States, on the banks of Lake Norman. It is a suburb in the Charlotte metropolitan area. The population was 10,944 at the 2010 census, and in 2019 the estimated population was 13,054. The town was founded in 1837 with the establishment of the Presbyterian Davidson College, named for Brigadier General William Lee Davidson, a local Revolutionary War hero. The land for Davidson College came from Davidson's estate, a large portion of which was donated by his son.
Today, the tremendous development around Charlotte has stimulated Davidson's growth to its current population of more than 10,000 people. Local downtown businesses, now characterized by restaurants and specialty shops, cater to this new market. Prestigious, nationally known Davidson College has made the town an intellectual and cultural center, drawing into its orbit a sizable professional class.
Beginning with the General Plan in 1993, continuing through the Land Plan of 1995 and the Planning Ordinance of 2001, the town has advocated for and implemented smart growth principles, including pedestrian orientation (resulting in a ban on drive-thru's), mixed-use development, affordable housing, open space preservation, and connectivity. An emphasis on design has been a consistent theme in each resulting regulatory document. Additionally, the town of Davidson received National Register Historic District status in 2009 for the historic core of the town, which includes downtown.
One nice thing about Charlotte is the cool suburb towns that are there. Like Concord, Kannapolis, Huntersville, Pineville, Monroe, Matthews, Mooresville. Alot of great spots and nice video NC Mike
Davidson is a wonderful city in North Carolina. Love the entire downtown drive.
Oh wow! I've never heard of this place in my life but it is so neat and clean!! It looks like a college town in the middle of a rich suburb!!
Yeah Davidson is pretty amazing if you can afford it
What a great ride in downtown Davidson NC
When my wife and I lived in Concord back in 2010-2013, we loved to have weekend breakfast at the Famous Toastery (8:35) on the left. The Soda Shop visible at 8:32 is also very cool.
Certainly is a very nice little suburb. As I said in your other video I went to Davidson College and the charm of the town is very nice. You also passed my parked car in this video lol!
@ 2:58 Is that police officer also noticing that the route signs to go north and south are missing?
@4:24 Jugglers!
@9:00 Phone booth!
Great ride again MM!
looks like a nice safe place to live.
It is!
What's wrong with going to South Georgia? Is it that bad that you're avoiding it?
It’s a rural area 7 hours from where I live and not in the path towards any major destinations that I take. I’ll get down there eventually but it’s not a high priority as there are a lot of major cities I can get to that cost me 7 hours of traveling each way.
@@MileageMikeTravels But you have time to go through parts of Georgia (and North Carolina) but you can't (or won't) go through South Georgia (Thomasville or other towns)? *sighs* you say you'll get there eventually, but I'm not sure about that now!
