Lifestyle of Tega Cay

People in Tega Cay and its surrounding neighbors, have varying reasons for becoming members of their respective communities. A school system that is considered the best in the State, low crime, sub-urban/farm setting, a diverse socio-economic population, close proximity to Charlotte, a fabulous lake, prospects for solid home valuations, etc. are to name a few. In fact many new developments have opened up in close proximity over the years. Palmetto Plantation [east & west], Waterstone, Carowoods, Knightsbridge and the much-acclaimed Baxter Village are among the subdivisions that have sprung up along the Gold Hill and Hwy #160 corridors. Each location has its own flavor and satisfies various lifestyle requirements while allowing for the sense that we are all parts of a larger community. With this solid mix, we can be sure that the area will continue to grow.

Lake Wylie is ideal for boating, fishing, water skiing and sailing. Tega Cay has 16 of the 325 miles of shoreline on the lake and has many recreational opportunities. In fact the fishing is soooo good that the 2004 CITGO Bassmaster Classic will be on Lake Wylie from July 30-Aug. 1, 2004! All can enjoy this mature body of water from one of the many public or private boat slips or waterfront parks.
