Chapel Hill NC Real Estate

Chapel Hill, NC real estate and relocation info.

Chapel Hill, the largest municipality in Orange County, has been nicknamed the "Southern Part of Heaven," offering residents the best of small-town living in a unique cosmopolitan environment. The community, centered around the University of North Carolina, is noted for its excellence in the arts, sciences and humanities and is an international leader in public health, medical research, business and computer technology.

Chapel Hill offers a quality of life that includes small-town friendliness; a sense of place and community; rich history and traditions; and the youthful exuberance and interchange of ideas fostered by the University. There are also a number of very tangible assets, such as good schools and neighborhoods; a healthy downtown; and a beautiful natural setting with trees, green spaces and rural landscapes. Chapel Hill frequently receives accolades for being a top location in which to live, visit, and do business.

Chapel Hill is a community where a diversity of ideas, people and opportunities converge. Citizens sense an energy and pride rooted in Chapel Hill’s history, traditions and unique characteristics. Chapel Hill is perhaps best known as the home of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH), the oldest state-supported university in the country.

Along with Durham and Raleigh, Chapel Hill rounds out the three corners of the Research Triangle of North Carolina. The region received this name in 1959 with the creation of “Research Triangle Park,” a technology and research center built between Durham and Raleigh.
