Not a garden question
I am a Tarheel tried and true. My blood runs Carolina Blue.
Unfortunately I have spent the last 13 years exiled in Maryland. The debate in my house is Chapel Hill or north Raleigh? I say you get more land for the money in the Chapel Hill- Carrboro School District and Chapel Hill High is a good school for our 14 year old son. She says the High Schools are better in north Raleigh. I say I want to plant a lot of trees and have a large garden. Dick |

Look at some of the older You will not want the trees where the garden is. It needs 5-6 hours of full sun at a minimum. You must be talking about a half acre lot are larger to get both. Lots are expensive unless you move to the county. NW Raleigh homes (Ray Rd, Creedmoor Rd and beyond Strickland). No city taxes.

I would add that North Raleigh is much more of a generic cookie cutter area
for upper middle class folk. Lots of franchise retail and eateries. Chapel Hill is a college town, deliberately more unique, more local businesses, less traffic and a slower pace. That said, CH is rapidly becoming more like North Raleigh every year. Raleighgirl is right about real estate. Orange County and CH are less permissive about development, so that should mean real estate appreciates more quickly than in development happy Wake. Still, people are making a killing in both markets. "Raleighgirl" wrote in message ... "Dick Adams" wrote in message ... | I am a Tarheel tried and true.
