Founded in the mid-1700s, Harrisburg has transitioned from a farming community into a small, bustling town without losing its rural charm. Its population has nearly doubled since incorporating 30 years ago and now numbers approximately 6,000 residents. Harrisburg’s southern hospitality and proximity to Charlotte makes it a perfect place for single professionals, young families and older residents alike. The town’s economy maintains steady growth.

Utilities are inexpensive and plenty of land is available for business or residential development. While Charlotte’s amenities are within easy reach, this town is self-sustaining and features charming shopping districts, well-maintained parks and excellent schools.
