Hickory is predominantly located in Catawba County, but includes addresses in southern Caldwell County, southern Alexander County, and eastern Burke County. The City of Hickory’s municipal offices are located in Catawba County at 76 North Center Street Hickory, NC 28601.
Once again Caldwell County led the way with just over 12% of all available inventory under contract. Most notable is that all counties posted gains over last month, signaling the arrival of the home selling season. Hildebran, Sherrills Ford, Hudson, Hickory, and Granite Falls comprise the top top 5 sub-markets this month. Banks (REO) continue to far outpace all other owners.
To review, our methodology compares unsold home inventory with homes that have a contract for eminent sale (status “pending”). The scope of the analysis is the Greater Hickory Metro and its largest sub-markets. Sub-markets are based on zip code. Hickory’s zip codes 28601 and 28602 are filtered by county. The counties and sub-markets are ranked according to their percentage of pending homes sales.

Buoyed by the momentum of neighborhoods in Hickory, Lenoir, and Hudson, Caldwell County once again ranks as the best overall residential real estate market in the region. Alexander County made the biggest gain. Catawba County gave up one spot. Burke County slipped to last place at it appears there’s no momentum on the Western front.

The North shore of Lake Hickory and the neighborhoods adjoining it have the unusual distinction of ranking as both the best and worst sub-markets in the region. How can this be? We don’t have all the answers but we do have analysis that supports this anomaly. The Grace Chapel area of Southern Caldwell County is currently outperforming all other sub-markets in the region. Its performance is so strong it parlayed Caldwell County to the top of the county rankings. Just a little further East, in the Bethlehem area, the market barely has a pulse.
