High School Graduate (% of Over 25) by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Charlotte Metro

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

High school graduation rates across the Charlotte metro area generally range from the mid-70s to near 100%, with the highest concentrations appearing in the northern suburbs around Huntersville and several outer-ring zip codes, where rates consistently exceed 90-95%. A notable corridor of lower attainment, dropping into the 60-75% range, runs through central Charlotte and portions of the inner south side, likely reflecting areas with larger immigrant populations or historically underserved communities. The Gastonia area to the west also shows moderately depressed rates compared to the suburban ring, while Concord and Kannapolis to the northeast display a mixed pattern with pockets of both higher and lower attainment.
