The Matthews setting for landscape lighting
A median home value of $445,100, household income of $108,611 and 30,577 residents describe Matthews in the 2020 to 2024 ACS. We light what the house already has, rather than adding features for their own sake.
Homes of that age usually have settled plantings, and lighting them can refresh a facade without construction.
At the ZIP level the median home value is 28105 ($430,800), per the 2020 to 2024 ACS.
In Matthews, 62% of homes are detached and the average household has 2.55 people. Most lighting plans are for a house on its own lot.
The place itself
Wikipedia reports that the settlement now called Matthews was first nicknamed Stumptown for the stumps left by cotton field clearing, was renamed Fullwood, and was incorporated in 1879 under its current name. A plan for landscape lighting in Matthews begins with that background.
