I live in N Raleigh and want to downsize,maybe head to the coast. Although having a Harris-Teeter; Trader Joe's; Costco; Farmer Market; Whole Foods; Sprouts; and a Wegman's coming and ALL 10 minutes or less away makes me wonder if I will regret/miss the convenience.
I am struggling with the same thing..
I would also miss all the amazing restaurants here.
I've been in NC going on 17 years and have moved around between Raleigh, Cary, Apex and now renting in morrisville.
This the the armpit of the triangle. Other than a close in location, there's few perks to morrisville. If you took away the planes, trains and the industrial feel, you might have a winner.
Morrisville can "tag" onto the borders of Cary and those parts might be better.
I don't see it either. The airplane traffic alone makes it towards for the bottom of my list. I was at a friend's the other day and it was so bad you could hardly sit outside and relax. She's moving due to it and several others in the area are too. I think it will put off buyers and reduce the resale. The location is fine if you work in RTP or if one of you works in Chapel Hill and the other in Raleigh maybe.
Cary, Morrisville, Apex, Holly Springs, and F-V oughta just merge all together into "Carylandia"
LOL
Just curious ... and seeking feedback from anyone here...
aside from Cary, what town surrounding Raleigh do y'all think is the "best" place to live in Wake County?
