City - Durham

Known as both Bull City and the City of Medicine, Durham is known for its college-town vibe, array of tech companies, and thriving arts scene. Former textile and tobacco mills have given way to art galleries, unique restaurants, co-working spaces, and spacious lofts. Durham is the proud home to Duke University, a cutting-edge research institution dressed in Gothic architecture.

Entrepreneurship defines the culture in Durham, from tech startups to eclectic food trucks turned restaurants, and everything in between. From the handcrafted goods at the Mothership to the national retailers at the Streets of Southpoint, Durham has an abundance of shopping options. You’ll find locals enjoying the Durham Farmers Market and Food Truck Rodeo at Central Park, visiting the Duke Lemur Center (the largest in the world), kayaking at Eno River State Park, and exploring the interactive exhibits at the Museum of Life and Science.

Cozy, cheap, quiet

The Murchison townhomes have a lot going for them. They're relatively well maintained for their age and the rent is pretty reasonable. The landlord fixes maintenance issues quickly, though there are no allowances for if you have an emergency after hours. Extra points for being dog friendly with no breed restrictions. The kitchen layout in our unit is weird, but it has a dishwasher and washer/dryer. The location is great, too, right on the freeway which will take you downtown. It's much smaller than our previous apartment. That's what we were looking for, so we call it cozy, but YMMV. All in all, very pleased!
