Long & Foster Living
Raleigh, NC

Located in Wake County, Raleigh was established in 1792 as the state capital of North Carolina. Today, it is the second most populous city in the state with more than 360,000 Raleigh real estate owners divided between five unique districts: Olde Raleigh, East Raleigh, West Raleigh, North Raleigh, and South Raleigh.

Arts and education are major focal points for Raleigh real estate owners. The city is often referred to as the “Smithsonian of the South,” thanks to its high-quality museums and art galleries. The Carolina Ballet, the North Carolina Symphony, the North Carolina Theatre, and the popular Broadway Series South also call Raleigh real estate home. As part of the Wake County School system, Raleigh has eighty-four elementary schools, twenty-eight middle schools, and seventeen high schools and is home to ten charter schools administered by the state of North Carolina. As a result, Raleigh real estate is a popular investment for families with school-age children.

Raleigh real estate serves as one corner of a much larger metropolitan area known as Research Triangle. Four major academic institutions are located in Research Triangle – North Carolina State University in Raleigh, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and Duke University and North Carolina Central University in Durham – and serve as a chief source of employment for Research Triangle Park. This 7,000-acre planned research center was built in 1959 and now boasts 140 major companies and more than 39,000 employees. For more on Raleigh, see the facts below.

With the city’s emphasis on education and research and its dedication to the arts, Raleigh real estate has become a magnet for both families and businesses alike.
