    I really like Clemmons because you're about 20 minutes from the busy and fast paced part of Winston so its quite and peaceful. Plenty of restaurants to go to if you don't want to drive in to W-S. The only thing is every morning the traffic going into Winston is really bad sometimes there 50 and 60 minute delays, same goes for going out of Winston. You should live here if you don't want to live in Winston, but you're close enough to the southern part of Winston to access the things there.

    Evening is poor in life and stores open , close to Greensboro , good residency , clean streets. Family town . Very good education. More construction everyday . Needed of more apartments instead of houses. Very expensive houses. Living Homes. Kindergarten close to home.Not good diversity . West Forsyth High School is the best around. Need more affordable houses and apartments.When it snows , cleaning the streets take a couple of days. Main road take you everywhere you need to know.
    Beautiful area close to Winston, Pilot Mountain, and Yadkin Valley, the wine country of the south. Winston has many eateries to choose from in addition to more breweries coming to the city. Tanglewood park is the highlight in my opinion with beautiful trails, golf, horses, tennis, and the arboretum. Very nice surrounding towns to visit and enjoy. By far, Clemmons is a diamond that is just being discovered by many.
