Weddington

Weddington is an affluent suburb located approximately 30 minutes away from Charlotte’s city center. Most of the town is located within Union County, while a small portion extends well into Mecklenburg County territory. Weddington covers a total area of nearly 16 square miles and is home to a population of roughly 10,650 residents according to the latest census.

Established shortly after Union County’s foundation in 1842, Weddington and a large part of Union County were known for their fertile land. It’s a driving force behind the town’s popularity with the area’s first settlers, who came from Scotland, Germany, Wales, and England. The Scottish heritage of the Charlotte metro area is particularly felt in the community, with Scottish  Festival celebrated ever year in Rural Hill in Huntersville.

Weddington is a primarily residential community, with only a handful of lots in the town commercially zoned.
