Apartments for Rent | Search By State | North Carolina Apartments

North Carolina's population is just over 8.6 million. The state is famous for being the site of the first flight by the Wright Brothers, which took place in the Kill Devil Hills of Kitty Hawk in the Outer Banks of the state in 1903. Larger metropolitan cities in North Carolina thrive, and looking for apartments for rent in the capital of Raleigh, as well as in Charlotte or Greensboro, is a good strategy, especially if you're looking for a career in research; the Research Triangle Park area is home to many tech innovators, including SAS, Red Hat and Cisco, and a good place to look for a job. The high number of top-tier universities in this area also makes it somewhere those craving the intellectual and cultural diversity of a college town might want to look for apartments.
Noteworthy colleges in the state include the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill; Wake Forest University; Duke University, Salem College, and the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. Residents of the state are known as Tar Boilers or Tar Heels. The state, while perhaps known for the pleasant beaches of the Outer Banks (it's the state with the 7th most coastline, at 301 miles of coast), is also geographically unique for its steep mountains that rise from the coast inland; this creates a microclimate in the state that makes towns like Asheville increasingly popular as a place for people of all ages to consider living or renting apartments. Asheville offers picturesque and peaceful mountains, a college town atmosphere, and a liberal vibe comparable to that of the Pacific Northwest.
