Raleigh Overview

The capital city of the great state of North Carolina and a jewel of the east coast, Raleigh is one of the fastest-growing destinations in the entire nation. Taking its name from Sir Walter Raleigh and acting as home to a number of prestigious universities, Raleigh's effortless mix of southern charm and big city convenience meld to create a truly one-of-a-kind city. A wide variety of options for Raleigh apartments in neighborhoods all over the area make this city a wonderful place to move to.

What is the history of Raleigh?

Andrew Johnson, who would go on to become the 17th President, was born in Raleigh in the early 1800's. A city-wide fire tore through the city in 1831, destroying the capital building but also paving the way for new infrastructure, including a much-needed railway system. 1912 saw the opening of the much-heralded Bloomsbury Park, and the continued century saw a boom of expansion within Raleigh, from the creation of an airport and a number of scenic skyscrapers to the finalized completion of I-440, a large scale highway system designed to ease traffic congestion.

How is the weather in Raleigh?

Notable for their humid summers and brief winters, Raleigh residents enjoy four distinct seasons. July to September tend to be the wettest months, with spring and fall featuring comfortable temperatures and crisp and dryer air. Winters can feature snow, but deep freezes tend to be uncommon, making Raleigh a popular destination for retirees.

How do I get around town?

The Raleigh-Durham International Airport acts as a major hub within the North Carolina area. A number of private airports also dot the landscape, while close to three dozen public bus routes wind their way throughout the city. Amtrak marks Raleigh as one of its busiest stops throughout the entire southern United States, and a large number of public walkways and biking trails are easily accessible.

What is the Raleigh commute like?

Known as the Raleigh Beltline, I-440 loops throughout the city and acts as a major thoroughfare for traffic. I-40 covers the coastal regions, as well as connecting Raleigh to Chapel Hill westward. Commuter traffic getting to and from apartments in Raleigh tends to be typical of any larger city - busy during peak hours but manageable by most standards. A variety of U.S.and state highways also contribute to ease of traffic flow throughout Raleigh, including U.S. Route 1 and N.C. Route 54.

What are the local media outlets?

The largest daily newspaper in Raleigh is far and away 'The News and Observer', while the 'Triangle Downtowner' offers up monthly entertainment listings as well as restaurant reviews. WUNC-TV offers a PBS feed, with NBC, ABC and CBS affiliates also in effect. A large array of radio stations can be found wihtin the Raleigh metro area, ranging in format from jazz to talk, sports news to contemporary rock. Crime aficienados can keep up on local police beat updates via 'The Slammer', a bi-weekly newspaper.

Why live in Raleigh, NC?

From the nightlife excitement that lines the downtown scene to the large number of world-class eateries and art galleries, Raleigh has been a gem of North Carolina for decades. It's no coincidence that this dynamic and on-the-move destination boasts the title of state capital, effortlessly blending historic architecture with modern convenience. Raleigh has consistently made the list of 'best places to live' by a wide swath of distinguished media, including #1 by Businessweek and #3 by Forbes.

What Raleigh landmarks should I see?

A huge number of museums call Raleigh home, from the Gregg Museum of Art and Design to the Marbles Kids Museum. Both the North Carolina Museum of Art and the Science Museum can be found within the city limits, and the J.C. Raulston Arboretum is a great way to get back to nature. Historic monuments and landmarks are never far away in Raleigh, including the expansive Mordecai Plantation as well as the distinctive architectural flair of the Joel Lane House. Estey Hall draws design admirers far and wide to Shaw University, while the historic Oakwood district is a fantastic place to stroll a number of unique home fronts.

What is there to do around Raleigh?

Solas Restaurant is a simply must-do for fans of both awe-inspiring cuisine as well as jaw-dropping views. Downtown Raleigh boasts a number of independent shops and clothing boutiques, while the clubbing sect can be found dancing the night away in the warehouse district. The Music Park at Walnut Creek is a go-to stopping point for many touring musical acts, while the Raleigh Little Theater and the Long View Center host Broadway-worthy productions each and every season. CAM Raleigh gathers a beyond-impressive collection of visual artistry, and Shakespeare is alive and well every summer during Theater in the Park.

Any annual festivals or Raleigh events to know?

The North Carolina Symphony Festival brings timeless classical music to the masses every year in Raleigh, and 2016 marks the city for the World Beer Festival as well. The Hopscotch Music Festival draws big name acts such as Erykah Badu and Andrew Bird every September, and the Food and Wine Festival is a giant hit amongst the culinary crowd.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

Home to NASCAR as well as a bevy of history museums, Charlotte is an easy vacation commute for most residents of Raleigh apartments. The Great Smokey Mountains lie in wait for those eager to enjoy time amongst these scenic gentle giants, while the art-centric Asheville is a fantastic weekend getaway destination that combines funky breweries with hip and happening live music venues. Wilmington, NC is a golf-lover's paradise, while Hatteras Island is as much world-famous for its lighthouses as for the fantastic deep dea fishing. For the adventurous at hart, this scenic island also offers horseback riding on the beach and some world-class surfing.

Where is the best place to move in Raleigh?

Raleigh offers a large variety of neighborhoods to meet most budgets and lifestyles. Families and working professionals tend to flock to Boylan Hieghts, known for its tree-lined streets and funky bungalows, while Cameron Park offers more traditional family dwellings and historic homes. Students tend to flock tot he Fairemont District, flush with theaters and close to universities, while those desiring to reside in the heart of the big city itself will most likely want to search out an apartment in the Capital District. Regardless of where you end up hanging your hat, one thing is for certain - there's nothing quite like life in one of the many exciting apartments in Raleigh, North Carolina.
