The piedmont is a geographical region which includes many counties (see map above), not a town, city or county.

Another map with a little more detail. Notice how some counties lie in more than one region of the state.

Interesting that there is a little sliver of Southeast Wake county that is considered the "inner coastal plain".

Yep, Wake County was once ocean-view property. Areas east of the fall line, (border of the Piedmont & Coastal Plain) was ocean covered.

Looking for homes with basement which they said they have in piedmont. We want to live in N raleigh or Wake forest though.

You will find some houses with basements around those areas, and some with walk outs. It will not be plentiful, but they are around .

I think what they meant was that based on the topography of the state, it's more common to find homes with basements in the piedmont region.
