Crowders, located between Crowders Mountain State Park and downtown Gastonia, is a foothills and outdoor-oriented Gastonia neighborhood with trailhead energy and wide-open views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates at the Crowders Mountain State Park Visitor Center, where parking lots, trail maps, and boot-dusted conversations set the pace. Housing trends toward newer subdivisions and low-slung ranch homes, with wooded lots that keep the landscape in frame. Weekends revolve around the Ridgeline Trail and the Pinnacle Trail, with Lake Wylie day trips adding water to the routine. A short drive brings community staples like Webb Custom Kitchen and Gaston Pour House into the mix for coffee, lunch, and local taps.

The purpose of this district is to accommodate single-family site built and modular construction. The minimum lot size allowed in this district will be dependent on the provision of public or community water and sewer facilities. Although areas may be served with such utilities, most of these areas are located beyond existing or anticipated utility service coverage areas. The minimum lot size for residential uses in this district is therefore larger than in other residential zoning districts.
Permitted uses
