Between the lake and I-40
Lake Hickory, made on the Catawba River in 1927, runs along the northern edge of the city, and I-40 crosses its southern part. US 70 (Conover Boulevard) is the older east-west road through town, and US 321 runs along the west side toward Boone and Gastonia.
Lenoir-Rhyne University is in Hickory too. If you live near the lake or down a long drive, tell us how to find the house when you book. We cover both of Hickory's main ZIP codes.

Hickory homes, by the numbers
Hickory has about 44,300 people in roughly 20,000 homes, according to the Census Bureau's 2020 to 2024 survey. The median home was built in 1982, about 47% of homes went up before 1980, and about 22% date from 2000 or later.
About 24% of homes are older than 1960, and about 8% were built in 2010 or later. About 4% are townhomes and about 3% are mobile homes.
More than a quarter of Hickory homes (about 27%) are in buildings with five or more units, about 10% are duplexes and small buildings, and about 55% are detached houses. About 55% of homes are owner-occupied. Electricity heats about 61% of homes and utility gas about 35%.
In apartment kitchens, the dishwasher, range and refrigerator are often fitted tight between cabinets. Pulling one out to reach a part takes care with the floor and the water and gas lines, and we plan for that before we start.
