Name History
It is thought that the town derives its name from the Rev. Humphrey Hunter, a minister at Steele Creek and Unity Presbyterian Churches and a local Revolutionary War hero. Others debate that it is either named for Robert B. Hunter, a local cotton farmer, or the generous and kind grade-school teacher Elizabeth Hunter and her husband, Travis Hunter, the town's first Crossing Guard. Elizabeth and Travis are also known as the parents of the first baby boy born in Huntersville, Cason Shaffer Hunter.

I have worked in Huntersville before and people tend to be mild tempered and friendly
There is nothing unfriendly about the town.
This is a beautiful place to live. Shops, restaurants, salons, drug store and others within walking distance. The only down side is the cost of rentals is high and the pay scales are not meeting the cost of living.
