About Waxhaw

A distinct place to call home

Waxhaw blends a historic downtown full of antique shops and local restaurants with some of the newest and most sought-after master-planned communities in Union County. Excellent schools, a strong sense of place, and competitive pricing make it a perennial favorite for relocating families.

Waxhaw's downtown is one of the Charlotte metro's genuine gems — a Main Street lined with antique shops, local restaurants, and a community that shows up for its events. The annual Waxhaw Scottish Games, the farmers market, and the holiday celebrations draw residents from across Union County. Beyond downtown, Waxhaw is home to some of the metro's most desirable master-planned communities — Millbridge, Crismark, and Providence Downs South among them. Union County schools serve the area, and the school quality is a consistent draw for relocating families.
