About Statesville

Statesville is an Iredell County city in the North Carolina Piedmont, with roots in the Scots-Irish Presbyterian and German Lutheran settlement of the 1750s. It later grew as a regional center at an important crossroads, and today sits where Interstates 40 and 77 meet. Statesville has a strong local history, including the Governor Zebulon Vance House and a long minor-league baseball past tied to the Statesville Owls. It feels like a practical county-seat city, with older neighborhoods, industry, and highway access all close together.
