Tryon Hills
Tryon Hills
What it’s like to live in Tryon Hills
Forget about breaking the bank on South End prices – Tryon Hills offers reasonable rent just minutes from Uptown. You'll get way more space here, with many rentals featuring actual yards and off-street parking (a Charlotte luxury). The neighborhood sits right near Camp North End, which has exploded with breweries, food halls, and weekend events. Most rentals are older homes with character you won't find in those cookie-cutter apartments popping up everywhere else. Commuting downtown takes 10 minutes tops, and you're right by the Lynx Blue Line for car-free options. Just know the neighborhood's still in transition – some blocks look great while others need work, but that's why the rent hasn't skyrocketed yet.
