North Charlotte/NoDa
Simply speaking, "NoDa" is the central village located within the neighborhood of North Charlotte. The City of Charlotte recognizes North Charlotte politically as a neighborhood, and characterizes the demographics of the neighborhood as a wholehttp://ww.charmeck.org/QOL/PDF/2008QualityofLife_FullReport.pdf. However, the "district" of NoDa possesses very different demographics than the political whole of North Charlotte. Due to this dichotomy, NoDa's Neighborhood Association has chosen to redefine and represent the boundaries of NoDa, rather than the political boundaries of North Charlotte. The neighborhood association is either referred to as "HNCNA (Historic North Charlotte Neighborhood Association)" or "NoDa Neighborhood Association," as the two names are used interchangeably to reflect the interests of two separate districts that share part of the same geography.
Often, NoDa will be used when referring to issues of the arts and entertainment community; and North Charlotte will be used when referencing historic buildings or organizations. Several individual buildings in NoDa are on the National Historic Places register, but are recognized by the location of (Historic) North Charlotte. *NoDa Neighborhood Association
