Davie County, Administrative county in Piedmont region, North Carolina, US.
Davie County is an administrative county in North Carolina's Piedmont region covering about 266 square miles between the Yadkin River and several creeks. Mocksville, the county seat, serves as the center for government services and is surrounded by three incorporated towns and multiple townships.
The county was established in 1836 by the North Carolina General Assembly from a section of Rowan County and named after Governor William R. Davie. Its creation reflected regional growth in the Piedmont during that period.
The county retains deep roots in farming and wine production, especially in the Yadkin Valley where vineyards and agricultural operations shape the local character.
The area is best explored by car since towns and rural areas spread across a road network. Visitors can find information and services in Mocksville, where the main government center is conveniently located.
The Yadkin River forms the northern boundary and provides not just water resources but also crucial wildlife habitats that attract diverse species. This waterway is central to the local landscape and ecology.
