The Matthews NC Lifestyle
If you are looking for a small town with access to big city amenities, check out Matthews North Carolina. With approximately 27,000 residents and located at Charlotte’s doorstep, Matthews retains its friendly small town feeling. The quaint downtown with its historic buildings is the hub of the Matthews lifestyle. Here you’ll find the library, a farmers market, shops and restaurants. Stumptown Park in the heart of downtown Matthews provides a place where town events and festivals can take place. The entrance to a two-mile greenway through some Matthews neighborhoods is found in downtown Matthews.
Nothing exemplifies the Matthews lifestyle more than the Matthews Alive Festival every Labor Day weekend. This is the weekend when over 200,000 people visit this small town to enjoy the wholesome family fun that we all remember from our childhoods. An old-fashioned parade, carnival rides and games, musical entertainment, an arts and crafts show and a classic car show are all part of the festival.
Enjoy this video of scenes from the 2011 Matthews Alive Festival.
