Relocating to Mint Hill: What Newcomers Find
Relocating to Mint Hill suits newcomers who want a home that feels private and set apart while keeping a reasonable commute to uptown Charlotte, about 13 to 14 miles away. I-485 runs along the east side of town, NC 51 runs through the center, and Matthews is next door.
Mint Hill has a small historic downtown, a YMCA, town parks, a library branch and an annual town fair. It is quieter than Charlotte, with a wide range of settings, from newer townhomes near downtown to large lots and an equestrian community.
