The Mayor’s Message

Welcome to the Town of Oakboro Website. Oakboro is a fast growing town that has managed to maintain a friendly atmosphere.

Located in the Western area of Stanly County, we are in close proximity to Charlotte, Monroe and Concord which makes our town the greatest place to live. We are close to great opportunities for activities, whether it be: a day at the lake such as Badin or Tillery Lakes; a hike through the 53,000 acres of the Uhwarries; or panning for your own gold at the Reed Gold Mine.

However, you don’t have to go far to do a lot either! In town you can spend a day in one of the town’s two parks, stroll Main St. full of Classic Cars during a monthly Cruise-in or take in some history at the Regional or Railroad museums. We are also blessed to send our kids to the award winning schools of Oakboro Elementary and West Stanly High School and to the newly opened West Stanly Middle School.

Oakboro is a business friendly town that still keeps the small town warmth and charm. We offer water and sewer as well as garbage and recycling to Town residents and operate the only Waste Water Treatment Plant in western Stanly county offering sewer to many residents throughout the region. So whether you are looking for a place for your home or a business or somewhere to just spend a day, we know that you could not find a better place than Oakboro.

Please call or email Town Hall if you need more information about our Great Town.

Danny Long, Mayor- Town of Oakboro
