In 2004 it was predicted that Wake County would double in population over a 10 year period.  Today, almost 2.5 years later it is on track to do just that.  Major companies partnering with national builders are making that statistic a reality.  There are over 2389 new homes for sale and more than twice that currently under construction to be completed by the end of the year.  Major companies such as Caterpillar, John Deer, Cisco, Biogen Idec, IBM, Quintiles Transnational Corp., Lenovo, Duke University and North Carolina State University just to name a few are expanding bringing more jobs to the area.  Beautiful golf communities are drawing in mature crowds of semi-retired, educated empty nesters to add to the community growth.  All of this is of course in addition to the areas TECH & Medical strengths which had already earned it national acclaim.  What used to be a small town is now expanding rapidly and will soon be the hottest relocation spot in the US.
