I think that the North Durham area, maybe Timberlake, would be what you are looking for. Subdivisions would be Treybrun, maybe Black Horse Run. Carrington middle actually just received a national award for all the things they are doing, and they are building a new middle school in Treyburn as well. Northern High was just listed in the top 1300 High Schools in the US.

The area south of Roxboro and north of Durham isn't called horse country for nothing. It is beautiful with great housing possibilities. No need to drive so many miles to live well.
As for the schools, the previous messages have had some good information. Start with www.NCReportCards.com for profiles of the schools. Many schools also have their own websites. Then visit the schools and talk to parents and teachers. Think about it; Duke University, including the med and law schools and hospital system, has many well-educated employees and students. Their children will be attending the schools in that area as many of them live there. Also, think about the colleges and universities we have here. Most of the local children end up in those schools. Local lower level educations are geared to transitioning to those schools. (Your children will have access at in-state rates to those top-notch schools, too.)
You will be working in a small hospital in a small town, but it is not the end of the earth. You will love it here and so will your kids, if you give it a chance.
Welcome!

I would suggest Timberlake (Southern Person County). Timberlake Meadows is a new subdivision with beautiful homes and 20 miles from Durham. The closest city with basic amenities is Roxboro.

Original post is from 2007. Dr. "me and my husband" probably made their decisions already.

She sounded like a real charmer, too...
