    "It’s a brand new subdivision with very nice neighbors. It’s also very peaceful and serene. It’s not too far from the Smithfield Outlets and has an old fashioned, small town, tight knit community feel to it."
  • Michelle S.
    "Easy drive to Raleigh and close proximity to Smithfield."
  • Brandie
    "I live in this area, and I haven't had any problems as far as crime or vandalism go, but there is a lot of foot traffic coming in and out of the neighborhood, and many of the travelers are inebriated and talkative! Also, the probation administration is within 100 yards, so I do worry about the kind of people passing through. On the positive side, there is a lovely local grocery store, Edwards IGA, very close by, as well as a Pizza Hut and a Domino's within easy walking distance (less than 5 min). The rent in this area is below what is normal for this city, but beware of the utility bill...ours was over $350 a month in the winter, which was over half of what we pay in rent, and we are VERY careful about not wasting electricity or water!"
