Source: NC OneMap parcels (North Carolina Center for Geographic Information and Analysis) (nconemap.gov), each county's own parcel data, republished by NC OneMap on the county's schedule. Columbus County’s roll in this data carries little or no single-family use description (under a quarter of its records), so that filter counts almost nothing here. North Carolina rolls carry no homestead flag in this data, so nothing here says whether the owner lives in the property. 16,871 of Columbus County's 19,716 records with a year built (86%) were built by 2005, and 13,953 by 1995; across the 34 page counties that record it, 73% were built by 2005.
