Living close to downtown is ideal for walking to the library, shops on Main Street, and numerous events (such as Music on Main and the famous Apple Festival). There are also several 'outlying' areas, such as Edneyville, mostly Apple Country and open spaces; Laural Park, upscale gated communities, and Fletcher, halfway to Asheville, the largest town in Western NC. There is a bus service & delivery services (groceries, etc.). There is a small-town feel with technology up to date. And of course, the gorgeous natural scenery the Blue Ridge Mountains, and numerous waterfalls. There are several urgent care facilities, two main hospitals and the largest and most advanced hospital in Asheville (approx. 30 mins away). We are 3 hours from Atlanta; 2 hours to Charlotte; 2 hours to Gatlinburg. The temperature rarely exceeds 90 in the Summers; winters can be cold, but huge amounts of snow are rare.
