    "Big yards for dogs to play in. Friendly neighborhood for walking your dog. Many parks and trails to take your dog on hikes. "
  • Brittany Brathwaite
    "Really nice area for family and enjoyable living. Plenty of fun things to do. You will need transportation. Some residents like to complain because the sky is blue - but other than that, great place to live outside of Raleigh. "
  • Michael Roberti
    "The commute to Morrisville and back is brutal. Lots of traffic on US 1 and 540. Accidents every day. People drive like maniacs weaving in and out of traffic. It is the only drawback to living here."
  • Vhfdbgt7kd

  • Brittany Brathwaite
    "People walk their dogs and for the most part, they’re responsible for the pet’s waste. Unfortunately, people are less tolerable of middle school age children and high schoolers simply being kids. "
  • PegH
    "A real sense of community. We all look out for each other; never is it as obvious as when the last bad storm came through. Everyone was out the next morning helping to clean up tree limbs and leaves from the entire cut-de-sac, not just their own yard, sharing tools, equipment and man power. "
  • Peggymhaas

  • WF Resident
    "There are quite a few dog owners in my neighborhood. Most are responsible owners, but there are those that walk their dogs at night and allow them to relieve themselves in their neighbors yards. This is the part I dislike. I sit on my porch at night and you wouldn’t believe the things I see dog owners allow their dogs to do."
  • Peggym
    "Meet in the Street, Friday Night on White, MardiGras, the lighting of the Christmas Tree all make Wake Forest special. "
  • Julie B. .
    "Dog owners walk their dogs and there are trails in the common area for dogs to run. The lots sizes are big enough to have privacy from other neighbors. Fences are allowed. "
