Garner is a fast growing suburb of Raleigh North Carolina. The one thing I really love about garner is the welcoming feeling of the town. People are very friendly, and many people participate in community events all around the town. The one thing I would like to see change is the town's support for the newer schools. I think small businesses need to come out and support our newer schools how we support the schools that have been around for a while.
Living in Garner has been a great experience so far. I have been living in this area for over 13 years now. Over the recent years there has been an abundance of growth and building up the community. Especially in the White Oak area and around that specific area. Also a new community center is being built within the community, which will be a great addition to the area. Before the pandemic, we had parades, a variety of performances and a plethora of other exciting and fun activities. Garner is a great place to be right now!
I believe Garner has a grasp of nature with its landscape greenery. It’s full of open land to watch beautiful does cross the street in herds. Driving around I get to encounter wild turkeys and the fresh air garner his to offer. The one change I would recommend is adding a park to enable the experience getting more in-tune with nature.
