I have two boys that I have raised..and took care of my grandmother
A nice quiet neighborhood, with friendly helpful people living here.
Great company
I live on High Rock Lake and the peacefulness and serenity is awe inspiring. The quaint shops and restaurants in uptown Salisbury project a charm and nostalgia of days gone by, yet the location of this charming community is just a short drive from the hustle and bustle of the city of Charlotte or the city of Winston-Salem. Salisbury is a very welcoming city with so much to offer all who are wishing to slow down the hectic pace of everyday life.
