About the area

Quiet & RuralCar-DependentFamily-OrientedSpacious & Green

Purnell is an unincorporated, semirural pocket northwest of downtown Wake Forest, characterized by large wooded lots, modern estate homes, and proximity to Falls Lake. It offers a peaceful retreat atmosphere with rolling hills and pastoral landscapes.

Scores are safety-driven: recent crime levels and local news, plus Census data on income and poverty, housing, education and household make-up, and access to vehicles, internet and health coverage. Walk and bike scores are shown separately and do not affect the safety score. A guide, not a guarantee. Neighborhood outlines come from official city and US Census boundary data.
