Tryon Hills
Suburban Neighborhood in Charlotte, North Carolina
Mecklenburg County 28206
Sought after older homes and new builds
Although the area attracts investors, it also attracts those looking for more established and historic homes. “More people are moving there, especially those who love old, renovated homes,” says Jennifer Monroe, a broker with Compass who has been selling homes in Charlotte since 2012. “Because that’s what you’re going to get there.” Most Tryon Hills homes are from the early to mid-20th century and tend to feature roughly 1,000-square-foot floor plans. Older houses are mostly bungalows and cottages. A two- to three-bedroom bungalow built in the 1940s and 50s will range from $230,000 to around $392,000. A newly constructed home can go as high as $615,000. Townhouses and duet homes built in 2023 and 2024 start at around $540,000 and go as high as $758,000. Seventy percent of residents are renters.
New plans for an older neighborhood park
Tryon Hills Park is one of three Mecklenburg County parks that received improvement funding. Construction is expected to be completed in the winter of 2024 and will include relocating the playground and basketball court and adding a walking path. Double Oaks Family Aquatic Center is just a few blocks west of the neighborhood and has a public pool with a waterslide, lap lanes and a family friendly wading area.A recently renovated historic high school
Druid Hills Academy serves pre-K through eighth grade and earns a C grade on Niche. West Charlotte High — lovingly called DubC by the community — was established in 1938 and was a significant force in local school integration in the 1970s. In 2022, West Charlotte High began the school year in a brand new 100-classroom, three-story building. The previous structure was demolished and turned into athletic fields with parking. It receives a C-minus. Students at any grade can apply to transfer to magnet schools within Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools.Traveling Uptown and beyond
Commuters can reach Uptown Charlotte in less than 3 miles, a drive that will take around 8 minutes, depending on traffic. Graham Street provides a quick connection to Interstate 277, which — along with Interstate 77 — loops Center City. Those who prefer public transportation can hop on the bus at several stops along Graham Street and Norris Avenue. Residents are also mere blocks from the Charlotte Amtrak station, offering direct routes to Raleigh, Spartanburg and other regional stops. About a mile away on 36th Street is the light rail stop for the Lynx Blue Line. . “A lot of the development is happening because of the light rail,” Monroe says. “If you’re commuting or going to a Panther's game in Uptown, it’s great.”Camp North End provides shopping, dining and premier entertainment
Townhouses in the North End Terraces complex are the most conveniently located to Camp North End, which sits directly across from the community and spans 76 acres. Once home to manufacturing operations for companies like Ford, these nearly century-old industrial grounds received new life in 2017 as a hip, outdoor-indoor market. Visitors can grab food from various stalls and permanent fixtures like La Caseta, which serves Latin American cuisine. Black Moth Bars is a mobile cocktail bar serving locally sourced libations from a 1960s camper. Camp North End isn’t just a place to shop and eat, but it’s also a recreation hotspot, hosting film screenings, workout classes and winter ice skating. NoDa Brewing Company hosts trivia and cornhole while sipping Carolina-inspired creations like Cheerwine Ale. They also hold events like the Charlotte Chalk Art Festival with a chalk art competition. A few restaurants and shopping spots operate along Graham Street, including Wayne’s Super Market, Indian restaurant Curry Gate and sandwich shop Graham Street Grill.
Crime
The neighborhood’s CAP Index crime score is 8 out of 10, significantly above the national average of 4. Local organizations like Heal Charlotte and J.A.D.E — Juvenile Accountability and Diversion Empowerment — hope to address the city’s high crime rates by redirecting kids and teens from negative influences to positive ones.
