APEX vs CARY NC | MOVING to Raleigh NC | Which Town is Right For You?
Cary and Apex are two popular towns located just minutes from downtown Raleigh, making them convenient for those who commute or frequently visit the city. Cary is closer to the airport and Research Triangle Park, but both towns are equally accessible, with only a 5-minute difference. Whether heading to the beach or the mountains, residents of both towns enjoy a 2-3 hour drive to their destination.
Both Cary and Apex attract highly educated residents with median incomes ranging from $125,000 to $135,000, well above the national average. Cary has a slightly older population and is growing rapidly, particularly among millennials, with a population twice the size of Apex. Despite these differences, both towns offer a thriving community with plenty of opportunities for social engagement and professional growth.
Cary's larger tax base allows for more extensive amenities, including miles of greenways, outdoor concert venues, and a U.S. baseball training facility. Apex, though smaller, still offers plenty of outdoor activities, including walking, boating, and fishing. When it comes to shopping, Cary provides more upscale options, while Apex maintains its small-town charm with boutique shops and local restaurants.
Both towns are served by the highly-rated Wake County Public School System, with Cary offering more big and well-rated public schools due to its larger size. The housing market in Cary is more expensive, with about an $80,000 difference compared to Apex, but both towns provide excellent living options, whether you're looking for more bang for your buck or a more upscale lifestyle.

    Great video. When I look at the two, I look at most of Cary proper as being older and more established neighborhoods without a lot of growth area left, while Apex housing is a lot newer and is currently booming. If you are looking for a new/newer home, Apex seems like the place to look first. If you want a neighborhood with some mature trees and older design homes, Cary is the place.

    • @LiveInRaleighNC
      @LiveInRaleighNC 3 години тому

      I can understand where you’re coming from with that question. The goal of the magnet school is to reduce high concentrations of poverty in schools (among other things). In order to do that, yes, kids in higher socioeconomic areas are brought in. However, the students that live near that school are assigned to that school without having to apply so they live in a lower socioeconomic area but have the opportunity to go to a school with a mix of socioeconomic statuses. I think there are benefits to having a mix of socioeconomic statuses at a school - what do you think?

    I grew up in Cary, went to CA for middle and high school, it's home to me even though I've now lived away from Cary longer than I lived there. It's unrecognizable from when I was a kid, and grown SO MUCH in the past five to ten years. We moved away because of how ridiculously expensive everything was getting in Cary... and that was BACK THEN. Cary is definitely the upper class part of town, every family that lives there generally has dual high incomes working for major Fortune 500s. I once heard that in order to be considered middle class in Cary you had to make around $250k/yr, and I could believe that. Home prices are high, and taxes there are a major expense. What you didn't mention demographically is the Asian/Indian/Pakistani population, which is "on paper" 20% of the population - but that's not normally distributed. East Cary is heavily White, but West Cary where most of the new development is, is 50+% Indian. I lived in an apartment at Parkside for a couple years and frequently would go to the store and never see a white person - it's all Indians. The old joke used to be that CARY was the Containment Area for Relocated Yankees, but some people now call it Curry, NC instead. That could be a pro, it could be a con. Lots of great food around Cary, but you may find yourself culturally isolated in an exclave of Indian transplants if you buy without meeting your neighbors. Just be aware of it. Be careful with the public schools around Cary as well, the high schools have a reputation for having extremely high drug usage rates. The City of Cary is also mad with power, and love to gobble up land from all the little townships nearby. This tends to bring more land into Cary over time, but they tend to be less dense tax bases and wind up costing more and more in taxes, so your homeowners taxes WILL be high. They also LOVE to spend money, usually on art pieces and building nice little luxury outdoor areas... whether you see the utility in this depends on who you are, I guess. I do appreciate Cary's commitment to keeping the streets swept and washed, as well as well lit. Very few towns do this anymore, but Cary does. Public infrastructure in Cary is great, you will have the best internet and the most reliable power out of any of the local towns.
