So I have done research but always like to hear more of the locals perspective on where to live.
I am married and 28, plan on trying for kids by next year and love a good suburb vibe with things to do!
Things I am looking for:
- Younger Couples & Families area
- 5 min from Grocery store, shopping, etc.
- Has a decent amount of things to do
- Around 250-300K housing,
- Safe area
- Good school district for soon future children
- Suburb Area, but prefer within 25 min or less to downtown Raleigh
Which town would you choose that could best fit that criteria? Or could you give a breakdown of what you think of each suburb town in Raleigh?
What kind of home are you looking for? Are you open to townhomes? 250-300k, 25 min to downtown, and safe area are going to be difficult for a single fam.
Fuquay maybe? That's going to be around 30-40 min to DT Raleigh without traffic.
If you are ok with NE Raleigh, my neighborhood and those around fits most of those requirements. SFH in the 250-270 range depending on # of bedrooms. Most of the homes selling recently all have new roofs and some will also have new HVAC in my subdivision.
Look up homes within 1 mile of Lowe's Foods off Lousiburg Rd (401).
Going up to 300k might be a little better area, maybe North Raleigh near Durant nature park or Falls River area.

The whole area is suburbs. Most of it is 5 minutes from shopping. The entire county is on the same school district.
