Pineville, Suburban town in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, United States

Pineville lies between Charlotte and Fort Mill, featuring retail districts with over 8 million square feet of commercial space, including Carolina Place Mall.

Originally named Morrow's Turnout, the town received its current name in 1852 due to the dense pine forest surrounding the Charlotte & Columbia Railroad.

The James K. Polk State Historic Site preserves the legacy of the 11th U.S. president through reconstructed buildings and period antiques from the era.

Atrium Health Pineville provides medical care through a 206-bed facility, while Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools system serves the educational needs of residents.

The intersection of two Native American trading routes marked the location where Pineville developed into a mule trading center during the Charlotte gold rush.
