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.
@@deanmiller234 great points! Thanks for sharing!
Love your content. Very informative. In this video you mentioned that you are really getting into dirt road when we are looking for houses in 27539, could you please elaborate on it? We thought it was pretty developed near the intersection of ten ten road and Kildairefarm road 🤔
I’m moving to Cary this coming November!
Awesome! Reach out if I can be of assistance! 🎉

Cary. The Contaiment Area for Relocated Yankees.😄
True story.
Such a great video!!! You made it difficult to chose between either. They both sounded great! Whenever we have clients moving your way, we will be sure to refer you.
Thanks so much!!
Sooooo a kid in a higher socioeconomic area that probably already has access to a better base school also gets an advantage for magnet school? ...
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 used to live on meadow Dr. Across kildaire farm Rd. From pine Valley. Neato. Went to UNC a couple years, sometimes stopped at a bar in Morrisville. Toodle-oo.
Hi, I’m a native New Yorker but have lived in Orlando for the past 23 years, I’m now retired from teaching and looking to relocate for the four seasons. You didn’t mention any 55plus communities. Should I try Apex? I know I cannot afford a 700,000 dollar home nor do I want the upkeep at my age? Any recommendations?
There are 55+ communities in the area. I’d be happy to discuss with you in further detail if you’d like to book a free consultation tayloredrealtygroup.com/contact-us/
Thanks for the video. They removed the tax calculator page.
😂can you make a video for those of us who are in the 150,000- 300,000 range 😢or there is no space for family’s that don’t have a half a million income 😅
Great video! Thanks for the great info you provide!
Thanks for watching, Dean!
We live right next to the landfill. There's only a few random days throughout the year where you can smell it. They really do a great job. The power plant is interesting cause we've lived here almost 20 years and our electricity has never gone out. Coincidence? 😁 Plus, harris park and lake is really nice.
Thanks for the feedback on the landfill - that is helpful info!
The hair.

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.
Great feedback - thank you for sharing all of this. For fair housing reasons, I steer clear of discussing specific race related demographics in all of my videos.
Do some videos on Wendell and Knightdale please
@@ramk9531 thank you for the suggestion! Will do.
Hi beautiful heather what subdivision has walking and biking trails
Hey there - try North or South Lakes, Crooked Creek or Sunset Bluffs
@@LiveInRaleighNC what part of Raleigh are they located thanks
@@user-tb4hr2ry3u those are Fuquay-Varina.
Name of top 5 subdivisions in Fuquay and names of new planned subdivisions coming in the future or current development
I can do a video about this...thanks for the suggestion!
What’s the situation in 2024? Has the insane due diligence money still apply?
Hey thanks for the comment and great question. The answer is “it depends”. Houses on the market longer are getting much lower DD fees ($1,000-$5,000) but for those competitive houses we’re still seeing 6 figure DD fees.
@@LiveInRaleighNC thanks for the update.
@@DVCBunnymy pleasure
Looks like the epitomy of the liberal woman. People are running away from blue states, so this does nothing to attract me. Being from Vermont, we have had our fill of liberal feminists. BTW, those glasses and that hair are ridiculous. You're welcomed.

Thanks, great video
Thank you!
Dave Ramsey does not approve of this advice
Thanks for commenting - just to be clear I am not giving any advice. 😊No single loan product is right for everyone. I do, however, think there may be circumstances where this is a good fit for someone. What does Dave Ramsey say about it?
Ужас
Not sure what that means, @vladdd1975

I appreciate this video so thank you. My family and I are wanting to come check out the Raleigh/ Fuquay Varina area soon( like in a week or two). Currently live in Waxhaw a Suburb near Charlotte which has also exploded in growth since we’ve been here( 2014). The problems seem to be the same as far as to much growth for the infrastructure 😅.
Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for your comment. Let me know if I can be of any assistance while you are in town.😊
Fuquay Varina - is the fastest growing city in Raleigh suburbs. Target opening its new store in Fuquay.
It is definitely growing quickly. People will love having a Target in town!

Where are the "children's hospitals" in the Raleigh area? Often we've found if we needed to go to the hospital, a children;s hospital was often best. Just curious
Duke would probably be my first choice - www.dukehealth.org/hospitals/duke-childrens-hospital and UNC Children's my second - www.uncchildrens.org/uncmc/unc-childrens/. You could also try WakeMed Children's www.wakemed.org/location/childrens-hospital. But, honestly, that is based on the opinion of people who've had to use those hospitals not personal experience. Fortunately (knock on wood), I haven't needed to go to a Children's Hospital.
I loved living in Apex! Pleasant Park is a hidden gem!

@MrMagnasco yes I can. Would you mind emailing me at Heather@TayloredRealtyGroup.com and I can share all of that with you? I’d rather not speak negatively about anyone’s neighborhood here.
The sales tax on a car is lower than the retail tax but yes, taxes, taxes and then more taxes 😬 - where do you live and are the taxes better?
let me get this straight. You pay a sales tax on the purchase of the car, then pay an additional "vehicle property tax?" Your politicians have lost your minds. How are people alright with this?!
