The Raleigh-Cary-Apex North Carolina Area In Pictures

By
Real Estate Agent with Helping people in transition 210155

Slightly less than 7 years ago I moved from Long Island, NY to the little town of Apex, NC.

 

Long Island, NY to Apex, NC

 

Apex is a small suburb of Raleigh and is located in the southwest portion of Wake County, adjacent to Cary.

Raleigh, Cary AND Apex have all won numerous accolades from CNN, Money magazine and Forbes (as well as others) for their charm, affordability, school system and, well, for just being a great place to live, prosper and raise a family!

Although I do miss my local NY newspaper, and seeing my NY sports teams regularly on the TV, the internet and varying cable sports packages have allowed me to stay connected with them.

So, with that being said, I haven't looked back since making my move here. The weather, the easier pace of life and the Southern hospitality have all contributed to making me proud to call the Raleigh/ Cary/ Apex area home.

If you've been thinking about making the move to our little patch of America, perhaps this accompanying slide show of the area will help you in your decision...I know it worked for me!

Enjoy the show!

Laura - How right you are about NC being a beautiful state. We've got mountains to the West, beaches to the East and right in the middle of it all we've got the Triangle (Raleigh) area. Great weather, great people, great schools....It's all good!

Craig: Looks nice, but how's the market there? You might want to go back and throw in a couple of bad pics....if you make it look too good all the rest of us Realtors might want to relocate to NC and take your business. Just kidding!

Cecily - It's really nice here. The market is softer than it's been in the past, but there are great opportunities for buyers right now. Since we didn't have the rabid appreciation that, for example, NY, CA, and FL had, our homes have held mostly steady in price. As far as putting some bad pictures in to keep you Realtor types away....I say bring it on! I welcome the competition!

Craig-Your love for NC makes you a Southerner now.  You know the old saying "WHEN IN ROME". LOL  

Personally-I am glad you are in Apex. Now I have a good  contact in that area.
