Raleigh Neighborhood Recomendations (kid friendly with a pool) (Cary, Wake Forest: to rent, HOA)

[Kbpett]

Looking for a neighborhood in Raleigh/Wake Forest that is kid -friendly and has a pool. All suggestions welcome!!

What is your price range?

[VickiR]

The first two neighborhoods that come to my mind are Bedford in North Raleigh and Heritage in Wake Forest, as they both have at least one pool. Because they are very large, they will have many different price ranges.

To get more suggestions, we'll need to know your price range.

Heritage, Bedford, and Falls River.

We may be looking to rent the first year and spend b/t $2,000 - $2500/month. If we buy our price range would be $450,000-$500,000.

Any info on Briarcreek?

I know some of the neighborhoods in Brier Creek have a pool. You could also check out Preston and Lochmere in Cary in that price range.

How about Highcroft in Cary?

You can find whole threads on Brier Creek--Search the forum. Some regular posters live or have lived there. It has a wide variety of housing "levels" (townhomes, single-family etc) and is very convenient to RTP, if that's where you're working.

Falls River has a pool, but it's a private club with a separate membership fee. For the same HOA dues (and no private club fees) at Bedford next door, you get the neighborhood pool.
