Current Resident: I like it here in Royal Pines because it's close to my college by commute, it's not too far from grocery stores, fast food places, and it's along a bus route since I cannot drive. Even though I live here with my aunt, it's pretty nice here, and quiet and the neighbors are friendly.... Read 1 review

Current Resident: Tryon is a small quaint town located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. It has picturesque views, rolling hills and a sense of community that bounds its citizens together with the feelings of being cared for. While Tryon used to be a busy small town during the early to mid 20th century due to the expansion of railroads through out Appalachia, Tryon has become more of a retirement community for those who like to enjoy the slow and laidback pace of rural Appalachia....

Current Resident: I moved to Brevard with my husband in the spring of 2022 thanks to family circumstances. I used to visit here as a child in the late 90s, and it's crazy to see how much has changed and how much is still the same. Both my husband and I are from big cities in other states, so there has been quite a bit of adjusting to do in a small town like Brevard. There's not nearly as many resources in town as we're used to, but there's enough to get by and Asheville and Hendersonville are close enough to drive to. The nature here is absolutely gorgeous, and luckily we both really love the rain because it rains here a lot. My main complaint is that everything outside of big name franchises closes around 9 or 10 pm, so night owls like my husband and I tend to not have a lot of opportunity to go out. Additionally, next to nothing is open on Sundays. Traffic isn't terrible compared to where we're from, though some of the stop light locations and timers around downtown are very inconvenient....

Current Resident: Beautiful Mountain town, with safe neighborhoods. Wonderful exercise path around the lake which is accessible for bike riding, running, or walking. Quiet town, friendly neighbors. Parks for children to play in, and multiple activities for the whole family during the summer. Night life is non-existent, most restaurants close at 9pm or 10pm during the week. Local breweries are wonderful, and several coffee shops are a great place to go and hang out by the creeks and meet with locals or travelers. Home to the International Folk Moot Festival, and a wonderful Apple Festival.... Read 1 review

Niche User: I think this is a great area to live in. There are people who prefer to be in the calm areas and others in the city. Here you can choose a city like style in nearby Asheville, or be in a more laid back place in the surrounding areas. No matter which area is picked you always have a great atmosphere and great landscape. There are many things to do and places to explore. If I could do it all over I would definitely live here again, but perhaps this time try a different nearby area as my main home.... Read 2 reviews
