Hi, I am moving my family down to NC where we have relatives (in the triangle area) and really want to find a nice small country town that is relatively safe to raise our children. That's what we are used to and we like lots of land and woods. Basically we like the boonies lol and any town that has a small community or a small population. Does anyone know of any of these towns or could anyone recommend any towns in NC that sound like the one I am describing? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much and hope to hear from you soon...

One of my favorites is Taylorsville (northwest of Statesville) you should check that out. Plus it's not too far from the triangle (maybe 90 minutes?).

OOPS, sorry to be misleading! Was thinking of Greensboro being 90 miles or so from Taylorsville (which it is), but cooperwax is right - Taylorsville to Durham is more like 150 miles.

90 minutes????...my sister lives in t'ville and it takes me 2 1/2 hours to get there in normal traffice...i am just the opposite...t'ville may be a decent sized place for some but not for me...(whenever we go to visit, always go to the same places to eat etc)

If you were to read my post before yours you would see I did correct my mistake.
Taylorsville is a great little place to raise a family, which is what this op is interested in She said "a nice small country town" to raise her kids in.
Any suggestions for someone looking for the same thing further east in NC?
