Raleigh was named for Sir Walter Raleigh, the famed English soldier, adventurer, and poet. It is the capital of North Carolina and home to North Carolina State University, two historically black universities, Shaw and Saint Augustine, and two women’s colleges, Peace and Meredith.
With a plethora of things to see and do, Raleigh is a wonderful place to live, work, or visit.
Raleigh is known as the “City of Oaks” for its many oak trees.
