  • Hi Guys!
    If you’re new here welcome! If you’re a current spooky friend then hi I'm backkkk!
    So you might be wondering what's going on... well, me too! Long story short I'm the Florida girl that went on a road trip and made her family drive an hour out of the way to visit Gastonia, NC because of a TikTok... Yep, you read that right because I saw a TikTok.
    Now the TikTok I'm talking about was made by the content creator @realzacharykeesee here’s a link to his original video for reference.
    vm.tiktok.com/...
    Anyway if you were curious about the events that led up to my journey to Gastonia then grab a snack and enjoy this story time!
    ILY all of you guys!
    xoxo,
    Olivia

    Don’t waste your time coming back up haha. There are nice(r) parts of Gastonia but no reason to take a detour. If you want mountains just take the couple extra hours to Asheville/Boone/etc. if he takes you on a tour he’ll show you the new baseball stadium and Webb custom kitchen probably. Good food, not worth it. Not much else there.

    anything off of 321 or 74 is rundown and crappy which are the main roads through gastonia. the nice area for houses is gaston day school road, kendrick road, robinwood rd. these have a few million dollar houses. the nicer areas are crowders mtn(which is the hiking trail you are talking about) , martha rivers park, Schiele museum, the greenway trail is also nice.

      There is really nothing nice about Gastonia! I lived there for two years and aside from a couple of decent parks and hiking trails, it's just full of trashy people, crime, and drugs. Its commonly referred to as the "gas house" because more inmates are on death row from Gastonia than any other city in NC. I would consider it more dumpy than dangerous, but it's pretty high on crime there too.
