Established in 1891, Cherry is one of Charlotte's oldest historically African American neighborhoods, currently defined by a blend of historic bungalows, community parks, and modern infill construction. It offers immediate proximity to the Little Sugar Creek Greenway and Midtown retail corridors.

Scores are safety-driven: recent crime levels and local news, plus Census data on income and poverty, housing, education and household make-up, and access to vehicles, internet and health coverage. Walk and bike scores are shown separately and do not affect the safety score. A guide, not a guarantee. Neighborhood outlines come from official city and US Census boundary data.
