    "I’ve lived here 20+ years This town has nothing to offer families or an individual. I recommend moving towards Wilmington or Leland. Also, I recommend Garner and Clayton . You will find tons of positives and things do, as well as a better environment and school district/education AWAY from Wallace/Duplin county. I greatly discourage living in Wallace!!! Go elsewhere !"
