More About the Raleigh Lifestyle
There's more to life in Raleigh than its bustling downtown area. This city is filled with beautiful parks, interesting museums and historic sites, upscale shopping centers, and charming residential communities, many of which are not located in Downtown Raleigh.
Because Raleigh is North Carolina's capital city, state and local government offices, as well as high-tech and financial companies, are located in this area. However, Raleigh is only a few minutes away from even more major employers in Research Triangle Park in Durham. Raleigh is a great place to live, work, and play, but you don't have to take our word for it. Below are just a few of the recent accolades Raleigh has earned.
Top NC Tourist Attractions
You don't have to drive to the beach or the mountains to find North Carolina's best attractions. Raleigh is home to many of the state's most visited landmarks and museums, including the North Carolina Museum of Art (#9), Marbles Kids Museum (#6), and North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences (#1).
#19 Hottest Food City in 2016 (Zagat)
Whether you're craving Southern comfort food, upscale international cuisine, or classic favorites from a local diner, Raleigh's restaurant scene doesn't disappoint. Zagat highlighted restaurants like Death & Taxes, Standard Foods, and Crawford and Son in its rankings, but Raleigh has many more excellent restaurants worth trying. (Need recommendations?
