Area Guide

Niche Reviews Niche logo

Country lanes winding through heavily-wooded hillsides, sprawling green space, and tidy homes and small apartments make Silverwood feel like a tiny mountain village, but this charming neighborhood is part of the Charlotte metro area, located just 13 miles east of downtown. Residents who commute into the city can take I-485, which passes through the eastern edge of the neighborhood. Robinson Church Road is the main roadway in the neighborhood.

Silverwood is a residential neighborhood, but there is a shopping area located off Cambridge Commons Drive. Here, you'll find a Food Lion, a gas station, and Papa John's Pizza. For recreation, play golf at the Charles T. Myers Golf Course. If you enjoy soccer, the Harrisburg Soccer Sports Complex hosts recreation, competitive, and youth soccer teams.

The crime in this area is higher than it was in the past. The teenagers are breaking into houses and stealing cars around the neighborhood, along with damaging property. These ongoing activities are starting to make more people in the area feel like they aren't as safe as they should be.

The area that I live in is not as bad as other areas. When I began living here, it was a very quiet and peaceful environment but, now it isn't as peaceful. There are more children in the area and some of them are choosing to partake in criminal activities around the neighborhood, these activities not only affects my neighbors but also affects my family as well. If I could choose to live here again I would but if I could also choose a different area I would do that as well.

I personally loved this area when we first moved here nine years ago. It was quiet and less populated. Now there are more neighborhoods being built and population is increasing. I like it to be more quiet with less traffic!
