Morven, NC Overview

Morven claims the unusual distinction of being a community that actually moved from one location to another.  Named by Scottish settlers for their home, Morven was established in 1823 but destroyed during the Civil War.  When the railroad arrived two miles west of the original settlement, Morven was reestablished west of the original settlement in its present location along U.S. Highway 52 south of Wadesboro.  Residents take pride in this small but comfortable town with its tree-shaded neighborhoods and quiet country setting. They appreciate the family-oriented values and the close-knit atmosphere where neighbors know each other's names and work closely together for the betterment of the community. The town is proud of its status as a quiet small town and a nice place to live.  The modern Morven Elementary School is located north of the town on Highway 52, and the medical center on the same highway meets most routine healthcare needs.  One of Anson County's leading manufacturing companies is also located on the outskirts of Morven on Highway 52 South, providing opportunities for local employment.

Climate and Weather

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
