North Raleigh zip codes (Wake Forest, Louisburg: homes, suburbia, schools)

[fbf2006]

Hi everyone,
I've been looking at some listings and I can't figure out what homes are in North Raleigh or other parts of Raleigh, can anyone list the zip codes in N. Raleigh for me? Thank you.

27612, 27615, 27609...
Thats all I can think of off the top of my head.

Well, I'd never go by zip codes anyways...we got some that start downtown and stretch out past suburbia and end up in farmland, for pete's sake. They make no sense! Those three ferrickhead mentions are just the tip of the iceberg.

lol ok, so how do i figure out what homes are in North Raleigh?

[RaleighRob]

Map them?

[carolinatrendsetter]

They are from west to east 27617(Brier Creek), 27612(Creedmoor Rd) 27609 (Lynn Rd. and Six Forks) 27615 (Falls of Neuse) 27614 (Durant Rd and Falls of Neuse & Wakefield) 27616 (Triangle Towne Center, Louisburg Rds. and the area Bordering Wake Forest)

Having lived here for quite some time...I'd say the REAL North Raleigh is from the Brier Creek and Leesville Road area TO Capital Blvd.

I agree with carolinatrendsetter except the area ACROSS capital blvd. has not been considered quite as desireable. The reason has been due to less expensive homes and the schools not quite being up to par.

However, with all the new neighborhoods in that area and Triangle Towne Center, I think we will see that area get better and better.

There is also 27613 (between 70 and Creedmoor Rd).

I'm pretty sure 27604 stretches up there some too. Brentwood and associated neighborhoods.
