Sawmill Road is a fine area, nothing to worry about; my parents used to live right off there and I would recommend it. It's a big enough street to get you to the major streets when you need to, but not an "artery"; I have another friend just off there who's had no problems at all.

Also very, very, very, very little crime which is a PLUS!

and doors open when I run to the store with no worries. Crime is extremely low in most areas of the triangle. I live in Cary, and I work throughout the triangle, and compared to Florida, or places like Boston, there is a major difference

That area is fine. Best part of N. Raleigh is west of Falls of Neuse Road (this is a generalization, some nice areas east of Falls as well). Go to Raleigh Crime Mapping and ersys.com to get a good idea of how things are. This is a great area..Mike, N. Raleigh

I think that I read recently that Cary had the lowest crime rate of any city over 100,000 people in the entire South.

There are some bad spots near Capital Blvd, but most of North Raleigh is relatively safe.

Don't let Cary hear you call them a "city"! It's the "Town of Cary" (even if it's bigger than many "cities"!

I would never do that. This isn't Mayberry. This area is safe, but I wouldn't leave the house with everything unlocked and the windows/garage open.
