Why Eastern Wake County?
Why Eastern Wake? We have five fabulous reasons to make Wendell your home!
- The Triangle’s New Frontier
As the Triangle continues to grow, Eastern Wake County is leading the way. In 2020, Wendell, Rolesville and Knightdale ranked in the top 10 booming small towns in North Carolina. In the words of Wendell Mayor Virginia Gray, Wendell, which is located just east of Raleigh, is no longer a “little sleepy secret.”
- A Location of Convenience
Eastern Wake County is located near the employment opportunities of Research Triangle Park, the shopping, cultural life and schools in the Raleigh area, while still offering affordable and fresh housing options. Wendell Falls is 15 miles (and a 15-minute drive) from downtown Raleigh and only 28 miles to Raleigh-Durham International Airport. In addition, Eastern Wake County residents enjoy a brief three-hour drive to the mountains and roughly a two-hour commute to North Carolina’s sunniest beaches.

- A Plethora of Outdoor Activities
Eastern Wake County brims with beautiful parks and outdoor spaces. Knightdale Station Park, Wendell Paws Dog Park and Anderson Point Park are all within a 10-minute drive of Wendell Falls. Wendell Falls also sports on-site parks and outdoor areas, like a hammock garden, mini-amphitheater, CrossFit-style Fit Pod and miles of trails.
