Davidson is centered on its history and the college that is the pillar of the community. Main Street Davison sits on the southwest edge of the college campus and the town is alive with the life the students of this renowned school bring. The locals host plays, concerts and movies on the town green, walking trails through the community, coffee shops and bistro’s filled with local farmer’s food. The main mode of transportation in this town is foot and bike. The town is full of active people running, walking and biking the areas rolling terrain. Let’s not forget Saturday morning’s farmers market which is an attraction that brings folks from all over Charlotte.

 

While Davidson is a college town, the college is small and the students fit in like they are from the families that originally settled the area. The town locals and students come together around Main Street and the campus to celebrate and be with each other daily.
