PREFACE
Lenoir, North Carolina
COUNTY SEAT OF CALDWELL COUNTY
PREFACE
The City of Lenoir is situated in the western Piedmont section of North Carolina in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains and is the southern gateway to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Blowing Rock-Grandfather Mountain area. It is principally an industrial city with the manufacture of furniture its leading industry, being the largest in the entire United States.
Between 1857 and 1900, however, Lenoir was known as a summer resort and had many summer visitors, while all of those who went to Blowing Rock left the train at Lenoir and drove 23 miles by road up the mountain in horse drawn hacks. The distance is now only 19 miles.
INDUSTRY
It was during this period, however, that the manufacture of furniture first started in Lenoir, since there were many skilled cabinet makers in this area, the descendants of skilled artisans who had been brought over from England by the wealthy plantation owners in Happy Valley and the Yadkin Valley to build the furniture for the homes built in this valley shortly after the Revolution. Several of these beautiful old homes, containing the hand-made furniture, are still standing and in use by the descendants of the families who built them.
By 1900 Lenoir was already well-known as a furniture manufacturing center. This industry has increased steadily until at the present time there are eighteen large furniture manufacturing plants. In all, there are some 64 different industries operated in Lenoir employing more than 11,000 persons. Of these the furniture industry alone employs more than 6,000 persons, a majority of these being men. The payroll for the furni- ture industry amounts to approximately $300,000 a week and the total industrial payroll is approximately $600,000 a week. There are also eight cotton spinning mills in Lenoir and the Lenoir area which employs some 3,000 persons, mostly women, also a large plant making work clothing. There are also hosiery mills, machine shops, flour mills, saw- mills, millwork plants and other miscellaneous industries.
POPULATION
The population of Lenoir was 10,235 within the city limits according to the 1960 census, while the population of Caldwell County in 1960 was 49,725. The population of the two townships in which Lenoir is located was 26,090 in 1960. Accordingly, the population of Lenoir and the areas

immediately surrounding it is conservatively estimated at approximately 20,106 persons now, while the trading area is approximately between 60,000 and 65,000.
The difference between the census population and the population living in and adjacent to Lenoir is due to the fact that many of those employed in the industrial plants live outside the city limits or on small farms out in the country.

In addition, Lenoir is served by three state and federal highways which afford frequent bus and freight transportation. Ten large trucking con- cerns operate out of Lenoir either as common carriers or contract haulers.
