Badin was founded in 1916 as a company town for the Aluminum Company of America (Alcoa). Alcoa built a dam on the Yadkin River to create Lake Tillery, which provided power for the company's aluminum smelter. The smelter operated for over 70 years and was a major economic driver for the town. Badin is a great place to live, work, and raise a family. One of the unique features of the town are the historic townhomes that line the streets around Badin School. The charming town offers a village feel with French roots and southern hospitality. Residents have access to good schools, parks, recreation facilities, and walkable shopping. Badin is also close to Charlotte, which offers even more job opportunities, cultural attractions, and shopping options.
