Steele Creek NC Real Estate

Steele Creek: This  community and neighborhood in the southwestern part of Mecklenburg County NC, is one of the original 15 Townships of Mecklenburg County. It is believed that name "Steele" was the family surname of Scotch-Irish immigrants who settled in the area in the late 1600's and early 1700's.

Despite nearly two-thirds of Steele Creek being annexed by Charlotte, the region remained primarily rural farmland until the 2000's when significant infrastructure improvements greatly accelerated the effects of suburban sprawl. The widening of NC-49, the replacement of the old Buster Boyd Bridge, and the opening of I-485 has spurred tremendous growth in both residential and commercial development. Today Steele Creek is one of the fastest growing regions of Charlotte/Mecklenburg County, with over a 70% population boom between 2000 & 2007.
