About the area

Wooded SuburbanNature-AdjacentQuiet & ResidentialCar-Dependent

Bordering the expansive William B. Umstead State Park, this lush, wooded sector of Northwest Raleigh is characterized by upscale subdivisions, established single-family homes, and immediate nature access. It provides a peaceful retreat just minutes from Research Triangle Park (RTP) and Raleigh-Durham International Airport.

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.
