Why Live in Drexel

Drexel, North Carolina, is a small community nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Burke County. With fewer than 1,800 residents, Drexel maintains a close-knit atmosphere and hosts the annual Drexel Community Fair, which features carnival rides, food vendors, and live entertainment. The town is working to redevelop its historic industrial site to attract new industry, leveraging its rail access. Housing options include early 20th-century bungalows and cottages near the town center, midcentury ranch-style homes on country roads, and spacious Colonial Revivals and split-levels in the wooded far west end. Drexel's median home price is significantly below the national average. The community features Downtown Drexel Park, which includes an amphitheater and walking path, and the R.O. Huffman Center, offering youth programs and exercise classes. Nearby Lake Rhodhiss is popular for boating, waterskiing, tubing, and fishing, with access points like Huffman Bridge Access Area and Castle Bridge Boat Access. South Mountains State Park provides hiking and camping opportunities. Drexel's schools, including Heritage Middle and Jimmy C. Draughn High, are highly rated. Dining options range from Southern comfort food at Nynas House to coffee at Dirty Dog Coffee, with more restaurants along U.S. Highway 70. For shopping, Morganton Heights mall is a short drive away. Drexel is primarily car-dependent, with U.S. Highway 70 and Interstate 40 facilitating commutes to nearby cities and Charlotte Douglas International Airport, approximately 70 miles away.
