"Morrisville - We're Near the Airport. And We're Pretty Sure There's an Outlet Mall, Too. And a New Wal-Mart? Or Something..."

Morrisville: We were nothin' 'til y'all moved in
Morrisville: No Longer a Spit in the Road
Morrisville: More Granite Countertops Per Capita Than Anywhere In The World. Except Cary.
Morrisville: Known for...Nothing Special
Morrisville: Between Raleigh and Chapel Hill. Sort of.
Morrisville: We Heart Office Parks
Morrisville: Mayberry Modernized

I like all of these a lot! lol especially the first one. I also like the Webster shout out.

Apex has the best slogan; Peak of Good Living. Hard to top that one.

This may be a dumb question, but for how long has Morrisville been an actual "town". I was always under the impression that it was unincorperated, hence the reason most of it had a "Cary" address. I never would have thought that there was a "Mayor" of Morrisville.

Morrisville: Site of sites

(Not only do they have an "at risk" Civil War battlefield site, they have a Superfund site that is still being cleaned up. All very interesting for a town that had a population of 1,022 in 1990.)
