Review of Durham, North Carolina


South Durham
Star Rating - 9/11/2009
South Durham is a nice place to live for professionals in the computer and medical fields. Good job opportunities with local companies in the Research Triangle park, real estate and jobs that are weathering the downturn above average for the nation & state and reasonably good schools are the upsides. It's cheaper than nearby Cary, Chapel Hill, etc, but the schools and services are not as good. Having said that they are FAR superior to North Durham which is where Durham gets a lot of it's reputation.

North Durham is improving and may well be recommended in the future as well.
