South Raleigh & Garner

The southern Raleigh corridor along US-70 and US-401, centered on Garner -- one of Wake County's fastest-growing towns with over 32,000 residents. This area connects to downtown Raleigh via the planned commuter rail line along the NC Railroad corridor. Garner's White Deer Park Nature Preserve, Lake Benson, and proximity to both I-40 and I-440 make it an accessible base for Triangle employment. Housing remains more affordable than western Wake County, with significant new residential development along the US-70 corridor toward Clayton.
