According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Raleigh ranked 14th in 2017 among the country’s fastest-growing metropolitan areas. Perhaps because of that growth and recognition, more families are choosing to settle in Raleigh’s nearby suburbs.

Julie Fielding, a real estate agent with Nina Parker Realty Group in Apex, says people are moving to Triangle suburbs primarily because of location. “They can be close to work, whether that’s in downtown Raleigh or Durham, Research Triangle Park, at a hospital or at a university,” she says. 

Big-city amenities are easily accessible, but homeowners can take refuge in a small town, where they can experience a true sense of community. Here are some of the most popular suburbs Triangle newcomers are calling home.
