Raleigh, North Carolina is a vigorously growing Capital city developed as one of the primary participants in the Raleigh-Durham Triangle Park (RTP). This city in Wake County was placed on a recent Top Ten Best Places to Live list and attracts many who look for technology jobs, affordable new housing, temperate climate, and a family-based society.

Interstate I440 circles the city, with the new Interstate 540 (or outer loop) built to anticipate growing traffic. North Raleigh is suburban Raleigh loosely north of I440 and I540 … a delightful region of wooded, rolling hills. pasture lands, and forests of evergreen pine that surrounds beautiful Falls Lake.
