Mooresville is a suburb of Charlotte, about 30 mins north. There are basically 2 sides of Mooresville, one side is Mooresville proper, which runs its own school district (Mooresville Graded), and the other half is unincorporated and the schools are part of the Iredell-Statesville school district. Downtown Mooresville is a typical southern downtown - an old independent hardware store selling packages of nails from 1950, a couple of "antique" stores selling bric-a-brac, a great ice cream shop, a bead store, a sewing store, a couple of jewelry stores and, incongruently, a top-notch steak house. This is Mooresville in a nutshell.
The unincorporated side of town is where the Lake Norman shoreline comes into Mooresville. Lake Norman has real-estate ranging from old cabins and trailers to 8-million-dollar homes. Lots of water sports & recreation on weekends (so much that a few people drown each year).
Nightlife is non-existent, some independent restaurants that are good.

Great access to the beautiful Lake Norman! And, it’s within reasonable distance to many cultural attractions in the region.
I really like Mooresville. There is a lot to see and do! There are many restaurants to enjoy and lots of places to shop. It is very family friendly for the most part and there are a lot of schools in the area. It's safe as someone is always around and you often see police on patrol. I, however, will say that not every neighborhood is the nicest and people do tend to smoke around the area. There are many run down neighborhoods and smoke shops around the downtown area of Mooresville. Other than that, I would say it is a great place to live in and to explore.
