Overall, the Triangle area is very affordable. The Raleigh area median income is in line with the remainder of the United States, while smaller surrounding areas are higher than the US and North Carolina average.

North Carolina boats some of the best restaurants in the United States, many of which are in Raleigh! With locals chefs in the area such as Ashley Christensen, who has six ventures locally, you know there is always a great place to meet friends and enjoy good food. North Carolina is also home to 170 breweries, making us the "State of Southern Beer."

 

#6:Schools

North Carolina continues to set and achieve higher goals each and every year. That evidence is strongest in Wake County where the average SAT scores exceed state and national averages. Not only will you find great public schools, but charter, magnet, and private schools are widely available. This success is also apparent in our Universities. Speaking of...

 

#5: Universities

You'll find some of the top Universities in the Triangle area, which is what brings many families here. Known for its schools of medicine and technology, NC has a lot to offer the scholar. In the heart of Raleigh you'll find NC State along with many Wolfpack fans. Not far away, Chapel Hill offers the University of North Carolina and in Durham, Duke University. Even if you are not a student, these Universities put on many public forums, seminars, and discussions for the public that are largely attended and praised.

 

#4: Mild Climate

NC offers enjoyable weather year round with four distinctive seasons. Just when you're ready for a change, that's exactly what you'll get! We enjoy the beautiful colors of fall across the parkway and throughout NC as the trees begin to change to shades of red, orange, yellow and brown in the fall. Excitement is in the air as school and football crank up around this time. The sun still shines in the winter and if we're lucky, we'll receive a stunning blanket of white snow to enjoy. What a great time to travel to the mountains to cut a fresh Christmas tree for your home. Spring bounces in with magnificent shades of pinks, yellows, lilacs, and pale green. Summer won't be outdone with its glorious sunshine and long days. Our residents cherish the time at the pool or spent with friends and family at barbecues.

 

#3: Low Taxes

We work with a lot of people relocating to the Raleigh real estate market from up North. One reason we hear consistently is because they are looking for lower tax rates. Generally speaking, you'll find Raleigh property taxes are based on the county rate and if inside the city limits, there will be a city tax. Our taxes seem to be significantly less than those in the Northeast.

 

#2: Employment

The Triangle is known for "Research Triangle Park" where you'll find several top employers, and what gave us the nickname 'Silicon Valley of the South.' Top businesses such as Quintiles, LabCorp, BB&T, and Hanes are headquartered in North Carolina. We have one of the fastest growing populations in the country, as reported by the Census.

 

#1: Location

In what other place can you be in the mountains in the morning and at the beach by dinner time? We know a thing or two about location at Wendell Falls - being only 15 minutes from Raleigh and right off the US 64 Bypass, you can truly have it all, urban living with the benefits of downtown just up the road. What more could you ask for?
