Flooring in Hickory, NC: What Local Homes Need

Hickory is Catawba County's largest city, with 43,490 residents at the 2020 census and city limits that reach into Burke and Caldwell counties. Long known for furniture, it is also a center of fiber optic cable manufacturing, and Lake Hickory, created on the Catawba River in 1927, borders the city to the north. Neighborhoods run from the Oakwood and Kenworth historic districts to newer subdivisions along the I-40 and US-321 corridors.

Hickory's economy has moved well beyond furniture: the area produces a large share of the world's fiber optic cable, and Shurtape Technologies and HSM are based here. Lake Hickory covers about 4,223 acres along the city's northern edge, so lakefront and near-lake homes are part of the mix alongside the historic districts and suburban subdivisions.

The 2020 census counted 20,064 housing units in Hickory, about 8.9% of them vacant. The city's other National Register listings include the Claremont High School Historic District and the Harris Arcade downtown, and logistics firm Transportation Insight and several data centers have joined the older manufacturers. Weather swings are real here: Hickory's record high is 105°F (1952) and its record low is −8°F (1985), which is hard on roofing, decking and exterior finishes over time.

With more than 20,000 housing units, Hickory has early-1900s homes in its historic districts, mid-century ranches and recent builds, so every project starts from a different condition.
