High Point, North Carolina, hosts the world's largest furniture trade show, drawing over 75,000 visitors twice a year to this dynamic international business hub. This strategically positioned city, spanning four North Carolina counties, combines commerce and convenience with an average commute time of just 20 minutes to major employers like Wake Forest Baptist Health, Bank of America, and Ralph Lauren's regional operations. The Uptowne district and Emerywood area feature well-maintained houses near locally-owned restaurants, specialty shops, and the prestigious High Point Museum. Homes in the Emerywood Historic District provide proximity to Truist Point stadium and the revitalized downtown area, while the Deep River Road corridor offers newer construction with easy access to both I-74 and I-85. The city's rental market remains steady with three-bedroom houses averaging $1,465 monthly. High Point's central Piedmont location puts residents within a short drive of Piedmont Triad International Airport and three major metropolitan areas, while maintaining the advantages of a mid-sized city with established cultural amenities like the Theatre Art Galleries and Nido & Mariana Qubein Children's Museum.
