"Looking for tranquility? Then consider this community. There is no crime here and the area abounds with wildlife and beauty. A great neighborhood for walking. and enjoying the outdoors. It's only a short distance to the Town Common, where festivals are held spring, summer, and fall. Downtown, there is a cafe that was rated "one of the top 100" in the country, On the Square. Durham and Raleigh are only an hour and a half away."
