Our History

Selma was officially chartered as a Town on February 11, 1873, but the Town’s true birth took place on May 1, 1867, when there was a public sale of lots around a newly established station on the North Carolina Railroad. Selma was born as a “Railroad Town,” and our rail heritage is still evident today, with our recently renovated 1924 Union Depot (Selma Union Depot) supporting Amtrak service.

Town of Selma Vision Statement:

The Town of Selma pursues a first-class quality of life by being an innovative, proactive, and inviting community that is building on our tradition as a transportation crossroads and railroad town.

Town of Selma Mission Statement:

The Town of Selma strives to provide an
outstanding small-town experience coupled
with the amenities of an economic hub for
industry, technology, and commerce by
delivering exceptional services to our citizens
and community stakeholders.
