Waxhaw NC Passes Liquor by the drink!

As the greater Charlotte region continues to evolve our suburbs are also experiencing a huge influx of new ideas. Waxhaw North Carolina just passed a law to allow liquor by the drink. This may sound odd to many but there are no bars in Waxhaw and no alcohol sold in restaurants. Waxhaw NC has been and maintained itself as a small little country town and wanted to preserve their character. Yes, there were several powerful groups also assuring "liquor by the drink" was defeated.

The issue was placed up for a vote once again and the vast majority voted to approve the measure. Will this change the quality of life in Waxhaw and how will this impact Waxhaw Real Estate?

There are a lot of new residents in Waxhaw and the new comers likely now out number those that were born here. Liquor by the drink is not actually stopping people from drinking; they are just spending their money in surrounding areas. Now that money will remain in Waxhaw. Waxhaw Homes are likely to experience an increase in demand. I share this because I have had clients moving "from" Waxhaw because they were so disgusted that they could not stop and have a beer locally.

Waxhaw is a great town and a great place to call home. Visit Waxhaw Real Estate to learn more about our fantastic little town.
