Mike Jaquish Cary, NC, Real Estate: Real Estate Agent in Cary, NC

Morrisville is a hot spot of activity, with a great location between Cary, Raleigh, RDU International Airport, and the Research Triangle Park.

Many residents live in Morrisville due to the easy commute to RTP. Sometimes it is a compromise for a two-income household. One person commutes to RTP, and the other may have an easy drive to employment centers in Cary, Raleigh, Durham, or Chapel Hill.

With the extension of the freeway, NC 540 connecting West Cary and North Raleigh as it passes through Morrisville, the small town has become an easy jumping off point for many Triangle attractions.

Residential building lots are mostly controlled by major national builders. There are only a few that come to market now and then.

And commercial assemblages also exist.
